 Unexpected & delightful challange July 7, 2008

I bought this game thinking it would end up being too childish and easy for me. HAH! The animation isn't top of the line, but you'll never notice as you struggle to figure out a variety of puzzles. Some are numerical while others are spatial; some involve logic and some just need a very keen eye. Each puzzle has 5 levels of increasing difficulty, and getting a certain number of medals unlocks new cities (each with their own puzzle), so it will take a good while to work your way through all of them. Lots of fun!

Love the game, you work up through a point system, city by city. Some cities granted are alot more fun then others, some are a ton harder than others, but as you open the cities and the levels per city, you are so sucked in and always trying for that next city. Wheather you save your coins you earn for another city, or another level, is up to you, and thats half the challenge. SInce I bought this game, I havent had time for any of my other brain challenge games.

It's ok - I am a 50+ female who likes to use my DS for relaxing after a stressful day-which is most days. This game doesnt really relax me and i find it a bit slowm and frustrating. Better than some,not as good as others.

I enjoyed this game .I have 45 DS games and I keep it w/ my top 12 games in a special case.I love the Las Vegas Poker games and I also love the memory /match type game.
You have 18 different cities in 18 different countries ,some you have to unlock and you must try to earn a bronze,silver and finally a gold medal for each game.You earn coins to buy your way into other citys.
You have World tour mode,Random play mode and your Puzzle bank.A guy even gives you coins just cause you keep trying,unless his wallet is empty.
You can learn how to make the art work safe by setting alarm system at the museum in Paris.You can go to Knossos and search for ancient artifacts.You can go to Greenland and uncover all the equipment without damaging too much ice.You can go to Cape town and track sea life.In Rio de Janeeiro you can help organize the carnival by allocating dancers to different floats.In London you can balance the accounts at the Bank of England.In Berlin you figure out how to activate the Egnima machine.In Moscow you take part in a memory testReiner has devised for the Secret Service.This one is a lil challenging,In Mumbai you do Train Spotting and keep track of where shipments are going.In Beijing you restore the ancient mosaics in the Forbidden City.And finally in Sydney you Prove that you're listening to the musicians by memorizing the musical sequences.And finally as I already mentioned play Royal Flush in Las Vegas and Be the first to play Reiners new style of poker.
The game is still a lil new to me so I have a bit trouble in Greenland,the carnival and mostly train spotting,but I'm getting there.
If you like Brain Games this is a must to your collection.
