This game is loads of fun for the whole family. Even small kids can play most of the games, and the thinking skills should be part of every school curriculum. So many of the games for Wii are physically intense that we find we'll go back to Big Brain Academy to relax a little. However, we find that the thinking levels are intense in a different way and a different kind of workout entirely!

While I was expecting something more graphics-intensive and varied, this game is fairly entertaining for all age levels. I've played it, as have my children. It's easy to understand and gives OK feedback.

Kids from age 5 to adults age 70+ have played this game at my home and loved it. Adults will get a real mental workout once they get to expert level. Mr. Lobe gets irritating but you can buzz through him fairly quick. I would give this to all the kids in my family if their parents could only find a Wii system.

We rented this game before buying and am glad we did. The basic premises is an academy were the student's intelligence is measured by brain weight. The brain weight is determined by how well students perform in different areas--visualization, memory, identification, computation (math), and analyzation. The different areas the students can play to increase their brain weight includes, tests, practices, and playing against one another.
The games are fun to play, but because of the lack of variety, our 8 year old got tired of the game quickly. Our young 5 year old, who also enjoyed the game, had to have someone who could read and had basic number skills to help her. As adults, my husband and I enjoyed it, but we too got tired of the games quickly. So, after having rented the game for 5 days, we came to the conclusion, it's a nice game to have because it does help kids learn, but we shouldn't expect it to get long hours of play at any given time. It's more of a game we'll need to set with our younger kids to help them play and not expect ourselves or our oldest child to really get a lot more playing time from it.
