Let 505 games blow your mind with MinDStorm, the next evolution in brain training games

Transform gaming curiosity into powerful thinking with MinDStorm. The game features ten distinct types of challenge for players, all of which are simple to pick up and play using the Nintendo DS’ stylus, touch screen and microphone. Each of MinDStorm’s challenges is designed to focus on enhancing the player’s reason, endurance, analysis, intuition or observation. Regardless of the type of game chosen, extended play results in improved overall brain function and enhanced memory.

A first for the brain training genre, MinDStorm throws additional challenges and problems into the mix. Players are rewarded with ever more complex riddles to solve as they do well in the main training mode. General knowledge and geography-based challenges are also included to accompany the more abstract trials such as sliding picture puzzles, mazes to navigate with the stylus and spot the difference games.

Further innovation is found in the way the game will adapt the tasks it asks players to perform according to the local environment it is being played in. When playing on a bumpy car or train ride for instance, MinDStorm will omit the tasks that require precise stylus action. When playing in public the game will spare players the need to vocalize into the Nintendo DS microphone. With its many innovative and exciting challenges and features, MinDStorm offers arguably the most thorough workout yet seen in a brain training title.

Publisher 505 Games is pleased to announce that the next evolution in the popular ‘brain training’ phenomenon is headed for Nintendo DS on May 18th. MinDStorm, from developer ASK Co. Ltd., takes brain exercise software to a whole new level and offers a whole raft of exciting new games, features and challenges – all designed specifically to stimulate and improve the players’ brain functions and most importantly, be fun to play in their own right.

MinDStorm releases for Nintendo DS on May 18th, priced around £30, from publisher 505 Games.

    Had the same trouble when registering myself, i'm presuming it's just a glitch as i couldn't find anything to say the competitions are age limited anywhere on the site. I just put 1985 as mine, makes me feel a little younger i guess :)

    I've done the same thing. I just hope they don't query it if I win!

    But as you said, there's no indication that the comp is limited to certain ages.

    I'm also 1977! I'm still debating whether to enter these or not. Apparently I don't look my age, so maybe I could get away with saying I'm 22?

    Well I'm 1972 and I entered!

    It doesn't say anything on the site about it only being for younger people.
