Educational Games

[Dunquixote]

Hello. Does anyone know of any educational games for the 3ds that is for all ages? In my recommendations for a cognitive test that I recently took at a psychiatry office, it said that computer (and 3ds--an intern that was there observing the discussion about my results, mentioned something about the 3ds having games that might help) applications would help increase my engagement and processing speed. I'm about to order a Brain Age game, but before I do, I was hoping to find out if there were other ones out there and ones that aren't for just kids.

Mario Is Missing. It teaches you about geography. If that doesn't count then I don't know what else.

Brain Training and Big Brain Academy I think are similar things to Brain Age, so you could have a look at those. I've never personally used them but from what I hear they're rather good. Usually 'educational games' get trashed by people, so for them to be talked about positively says a lot.


The only other educational games on 3DS I've seen myself weren't that great (to put it nicely).

Mario is Missing isn't on 3DS. It's also terrible, even for an educational game.

Thanks :]. I did play the Big Brain Academy before on my sister's Wii and I did like it; I didn't know there was a ds version. :] That's exactly what I was looking for; thank you.

I had a killer time with Brain Age (it's for the DS though). Has my recommendation.

You can get brain training games for like 50p in the UK and they are pretty good (even though it's for the original DS). I find them enjoyable and stuff and they are not that kiddy like.
Also I would check out the e-shop because I guess box-boy could be like educational (solving puzzles). Plus box boy is just perfect for taking the tube or something XD.
