Are you one of the millions of people who get caught up in those addictive little word games you find in your local newspaper, or on the internet? Well, then Margot’s Word Brain DS for the Nintendo DS is the absolute perfect game for you.
Sure, there are other Nintendo DS games out there that test your mental prowess, but none of them play quite like Margot’s Word Brain. Other games, like Brain Age and Big Brain Academy, challenge you by using a combination of logic, reasoning and math. Margot’s Word Brain challenges you to expand your vocabulary. Plain and simple, it’s one of the best kids toys out there.
In Margot’s Word Brain, you are given a set of random letters. From those random letters, you are tasked to spell out as many words as humanly possible in the allotted time limit. However, if that gets boring to you after a while, you can mix things up by selecting one of several different modes of play. Among the different game types include:
- Word Mine, where you are presented with six letters and are given 90 seconds to create as many words as possible from them.
- Word Safe, where you are presented with two circles of letters that surround a center letter. You rotate the circles of letters much as you would a padlock combination until you create a word.
- Word Link, where you are shown a board of letters and you are given 90 seconds to create as many letters as possible.
You can also take your game online with the best toys, and that’s true here too. Challenge both your friends and strangers to see who has the more robust vocabulary. As you improve, the game will score your progress.
Margot’s Word Brain DS is rated E for Everyone, meaning that the game is safe for everyone from your toddler to your grandparents.
