| Upstart Games & G-mode Announce 'I.Q. Academy' Upstart Games and G-mode launch a series of four games designed to exercise the brain's right side and improve spatial, visual and cognitive skills in the player. The games will be based on G-mode's "Right Brain Paradise" series of games, the first of which launched in Japan in March 2003, with new releases having being made to the series since then. "Right Brian Paradise" games have achieved cumulative downloads of nearly two million units. The first in the new series of games, provisionally titled "I.Q. Academy" is expected to launch in Europe and the US in the coming months. The games include specially designed puzzles to gauge a player's responsiveness and accuracy in performing tasks such as recognizing shapes and patterns, predicting a series of actions and other tasks aimed at improving spatial resolution. The games rate a player on the basis of their performance, varying the puzzles on each replay to encourage further training and improvement. An innovative "pick up and play" control scheme ensures that the games are accessible to players of all ages and ability. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Game News :: home page |
