The TV advertisements for Big Brain Academy were not only to debut the game, but also the Nintendo DS Lite system itself.
It is also a board game.
Gameplay[edit]
In Big Brain Academy, tests are done in order to measure the player's brain's mass. The heavier the brain, the smarter the brain is or the better its reaction time. There is no single game mechanism to Big Brain Academy; as it is an assortment of puzzles with no one puzzle having greater priority than the other. There are three modes of play: Test mode, Practice mode, and Versus mode.
Test mode[edit]
Test mode consists of a formal test containing five puzzles, with one puzzle taken at random from each of the five categories to determine the player's brain mass.
I honestly don't know.The numbers have phased into insignificance at this point, but Gran Turismo 6 is unparalleled in its number of cars, tracks and intricate options for customisation. With over 1200 vehicles and 100 courses, there's no denying the sheer level of content here, but Gran Turismo 6 is merely an expansion, not an evolution. Gran turismo 6 review.
After the test, the player is given a letter grade. Dr. Lobe (the 'headmaster' of Big Brain Academy) also assesses what areas the player needs to improve in and what ranking they would be. Professions include museum curator, librarian, astronaut, investor, fashion stylist, diplomat, cave man, Isaac Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, politician, poet, banker, doctor, musician, etc.
There are five different categories of tests with three activities per category. The categories are (followed by their activities):
- Think (Logic-themed questions)
- Analyze (Reason-based questions)
- Compute (Math-themed questions)
- Identify (Visual-themed questions)
- Memorize (Memory-based questions)
Practice mode[edit]
Practice mode allows the player to select which specific activity he or she wants to do in order to train their brain. The activities available for play are the same as those available in Test mode. Each activity has three levels of difficulty, and the player can earn either a bronze, silver, gold, or platinum medal for achieving a certain brain mass on each difficulty level. A mass of 50 grams is required for a bronze medal, 150 grams for silver, and 250 for gold. The mass required for a platinum medal differs for each difficulty level of each activity, however the exact mass required for each platinum medal is not specified in the game.
