Originally Released for the Nintendo DS, Big Brain Academy proved that Edutainment games can indeed be fun AND educational at the same time. Big Brain Academy for the DS received an above average public reception and media attention. It was therefore only a matter of time until the “Big N” (Nintendo) would release a Wii version of the game. To no surprise, Big Brain Academy Wii Degree sticks to the proven formula, offering 15 mini games in 5 categories. The games difficulty is geared towards teens and adults, however, with a little help even players as young as 8 can enjoy the game. Big Brain Academy requires players to solve quick-thinking problems, use their memory, do math and study what they see on the screen to then click the answer. The individual games are fun and the Wii-remote controls are responsive. However Players will likely burn thru the 15 different mini games quickly. Then comes the learning portion of repetition to increase speed and accuracy. Big Brain offers 3 Multiplayer games, which unfortunately cannot all be customized in regards of difficulty, which makes the game frustrating for the younger members in the family. All in all, Big Brain Academy Wii Degree is a step in the right direction for Edutainment Games that is worth checking out.
