From the developer:

Flex your brain muscles in this challenging test of IQ games and puzzles.

Take on over 20 different brain benders that test your perception, memory, and auditory skills. Challenging or frustrating? You decide as you prove your mental prowess.

Easy to pick up and with a smooth climb in difficulty over 5 challenging levels, Mind Games 2 offers hours of compelling gameplay. See if you have what it takes to reach “Genius” level.

Mind Games 2 is not just a fun game – it’s a daily workout for the brain. Feel virtuous as you play.

Who does not want to get smarter? Of course, I could use a few more bricks to make mine a load! Studio X has entered the game genre of working out your brain. This is not a new style of game, but the developers have put together a nice exercise regimen for your brain. Since I am a coach and workout daily myself, exercising the brain sounds like a great plan. Will this game actually make you smarter? Probably not. Will the game provide some entertainment while making your wheels turn? Yes it will.

The game begins with a test and rewards you with a level of intelligence. Do not fret after taking the test! Your level will likely be low on your first try as you are concentrating on the task as well as learning the mini games. Once the initial test is complete, free play will assist in raising the scores. Practice brings efficiency in these games. Maybe it raises your IQ. Maybe not. The game does get the brain to think in different ways and challenges all areas. The games are enjoyable and the chance to raise the score and level will bring you back for more. Several unlockable levels are available which will bring added gameplay as the brain improves.

The developers put great effort into providing an attractive experience. MindGames2 is polished and has great audio. Often, these style of games are rushed and ugly. Care was also taken in creating games that are both entertaining as well as unique. This is not your cookie cutter brain game. If you enjoy mind puzzles and logic games, this game is worth the $2.99.
