Cobra Mobile brings a new reason for entertainment on mobile phones this month through Mind Games. In association with Player X, Cobra offers its users the sequence of Mind Aerobics, also a mind challenging mobile phone game.

Mind Games is a casual puzzler meant to train the brain into figuring out solutions for a series of challenges and mini games. When played on a daily basis, this mobile game is supposed to increase the overall mind agility and speed as well as the number of mental associations.

The game includes its players in a competition with the whole world, as the scores are automatically submitted to Terraplay's server and added to a worldwide ranking.

Peter Mackintosh, Cobra's chairman, says: "Cobra offers publishers, networks, brand owners and mobile gamers something special,". Moreover, "We understand the mobile gaming market, we understand the value of brands and of incorporating them into fun and compelling games. Our technology gives us a fast, reliable way to take a concept and turn it into a completed product which can incorporate all of the features the market is likely to see over the next several years."

Mind Games was also released by Player X and Sky Television under the name of Carol Vorderman's Mind Aerobics. Under this form, it is highly rated in mobile games charts for its brain training purpose.

Cobra Mobile is the company behind the creation of many best-selling games, amongst which we find Sensible Soccer Skillz and Lego Bricks. Despite that, it usually avoids publicity of any kind and prefers to concentrate its actions towards developing an advanced game portfolio.
