Big Brain - Functional Brain Training

The app has it all, in principle. The main thing I miss is a general polish. Timers of animations, text placement, a bit unclear graphic, missing new exercise explanation and so on. Also when the time starts ticking, there's not enough time to hurry up. Don't get me wrong, it is a great app but the little things add up. At last I must say there are a few unique concepts worth trying!

I like the interface and the music, the all around design is so light and airy to me I like it. I do wish tho that there were more chances to figure out what the puzzle wanted you to do rather than just throw me into it. Maybe start with a longer timer for beginners and shorten it has they get farther along. I personally am very bad at doing numbers in my head so the timer doesnt help work with me. I almost gave up on the app because of it.

There are very few times when it's fair to say the ads ruin an experience, as you can always pay for them to go away. However, this app has ONE ad. Every other exercise, I've greeted with "Mike's got an app," and it's so frustrating. Even worse, you can trigger an ad just by navigating the menu. Wanna see your stats? Ad. Changing the language? Ad. Literally going to pay to remove ads? One last ad before you go. But hey, other than that, it's a fun time!

I really enjoy this game, but I'm not satisfied with some of the puzzles. there are a few with insufficient instruction or are designed to fail. ex...street signs...going from street to destination. ex...splitting the bill...how many people are splitting it....? ex...fly swatting....be a little more generous or add a shot. Some simply do not allow enough time. I believe a few easy fixes would drastically improve game overall. Also...maybe if we could see where we missed.

This is super fun to train your brain with real life examples (discounts, calories, etc.). Awesome simple design. The only thing I would change is clearer instructions and the "Way Home" game. Sometimes the games are confusing, but not super confusing (just need clarification). However, the Way Home game never works for me. I click the right streets and stuff but ALWAYS get the problems "wrong" even though I did everything correctly. Please change this!!

The graphics are so gorgeous and so easy on the eyes and makes you feel at peace. Not only that, instead of random scenarios which will never happen to you or an abstract puzzle, Big Brain uses real life situations to increase brain cognition like calculating the bill, memorizing phone numbers, swatting flies, finding the right pair of socks,etc. I've only used it for one day and I already love it!

I think it is a very enjoyable and simplistic app. The only problem I'm experiencing is that I'm quite a slow reader, so the instructions often go too quickly for me to process them and some of them I just don't understand how to play. Also, some of the timers are way too fast for beginners like me, which was almost a big turn off, especially in the arithmetic games. This app has so much potential and I feel with minor improvements it would be ever greater than it is now

Great app, cute graphic. The only problems are that there isn't time after the ringer goes off to do anything, in any game. The timer could go off earlier, letting users know how long they have (e.g. last 5 seconds) left. The spacing in-between objects in games like Shopping list is small, it's not very convenient for people who have coordination/nerve issues.

wow. first of all, this app is so appealing to the eye. the design, graphics, color schemes, gimmicks, sounds, transitions, layout is soo cute. i adore it. and then! then the games are quite creative, entertaining and not too complicated! stimulating but not too stimulating if y'know what i mean. it is my favorite out of all brain games i've tried and i've tried many. i don't know if this increases my mental ability level at all yet, but it is definitely something i can make into a daily habit (:

Some great games here but game mechanics are poorly executed! For instance, it doesnt let you adjust your level and doesnt give enough time. I fluked some answers and it kept levelling up. Now its way beyond my level and I can' t even read the questions properly. The games also dont really explain anything so the first few levels are basically you trying to figure it out. I like the graphics though. I had a lot of hope for this cos the interface was so nice but now its just frustrating.

The app is amazing and fun (unlike other brain training apps), aesthetic in appearance and easy to understand. The app itself is a little bit buggy ie. Double clicking the enter button causes the sound to play twice, The app freezes up from time to time (though never during games), The session counter counts the warm up as well as other sessions (Will add more if I find more) Overall though, it's a great app and I will continue to use it daily!

Fun & friendly, good graphics & many games to play with but there are ads disturbing me while using the app. Remove the ads. Its really annoying. Also, the games make me confused sometimes. It just bring me straight to the game. It doesnt explain a lot about the game & how to play it. One more thing, it is really annoying when the game explains when the game is running. Please fix this & make an update. I really enjoy this app without any problems.

really fun overall, great game for relaxing to. it's also very simply laid out which is a plus for appearances. the games were also unique and relevant. in future updates I'd like to see work in these areas: - lack of instructions before some games, seeming randomly so - a few typos such as analyze, etc. (these dont take away from the game, but they do make it seem less professional and rushed.) - the soundtrack

I absolutely love it! I really don't mind the ads, they are quite fun as well and they don't disrupt my lovely experience! I love the art style and the training is fun and useful) the only thing is for me, the yoga instructor game is too fast, but I guess I just need practice, is all. Thank you for this game, with such beautiful colours and art style!

Was definitely at least a 4 star until it stopped running. There were a few glitches with certain games, but now every time I try to open the app it shuts back down immediately. Before that, this was one of the most practical brain training apps I have found, and I have tried alot. Hope they get the glitch worked out soon.

It's great and I like the style and it's overall aesthetic but the main problem is the lack of instructions. You guys should at least put on some instructions before the mini games. Like its frustrating when you play it for the first time. Even just little illustrations would suffice not just words.

It is an amazing game. Eventhough the graphics are a bit odd, the gameplay and the theme is amazing. It might not be a scientifically developed app such as proclaimed by lumosity and elevate, but according to me it is better than those. The best part is that it provides a lot of training without asking you to pay for it unlike other apps. Another thing is that it takes very less space unlike other brain training games. Really a worth download. Thank you developers for making such a great app.

it's a straightforward and easy to use daily training app, but it's almost too straightforward. Some games are vague and leave it up to trial and error to learn how to play. Overall, excellent presentation and I was happy to throw down $1.99 to remove ads and support the dev.

The amount of ads that just cut you in between your gamimg is very annoying. Also, the game just dives you in the mini games without any prior instructions so you don't really know what you're getting into and that's a little unnerving. The interface is cool.

The game is ok, but you need to give a special time break for instruction BEFORE the game starts, its kind of annoying to not know what to do and get that x marks. Also, the ads covering my "tap to continue" button I always tap the ads instead of that, this is why I'm uninstalling bc it won't let me continue. Maybe I'm dumb but that discount game gets on my nerves, I don't even have time to count in my head before I'm running out of time.

Love the app, but it's not always immediately obvious what you need to do for each game - where to tap etc. - and I couldn't find any help options when using my Samsung tablet, so that led to a few initial low scores. Still, makes it easier to improve on them! Also, the pedant in me dislikes the apostrophe in the sock match - 'find it's pair' ... 😖

Unclear and/or lacking directions. Poor controls. Poor graphics. Some of the number problems seem to have wrong answers (or at least don't recognize right answers, I never actually checked what they considered correct). Aside from that it just gets old fast.

Best "brain-training" game I have played. It's free and has a great variety of games organized into different categories. Other reviewers are irritated by the lack of instructions, but I think that's part of the charm and simplicity of the game (also, the rules are easy to understand--an eight-year-old could figure them out). I haven't experienced any glitches.

The game itself is very good! Love the way that it's presented. It's funny and relaxing. But has too many adds all the time and I think the instructions of each part should be given prior you start playing it, otherwise sometimes you miss the time of the game. ☹️

This app is so cute!! I really love the graphic and animation 💖. The ads is not a problem, at least to me. The brain training is medium. Not too hard. But rather relaxing. So good to use at times when you have a stressful day. Or for you to kill time. Or maybe to train your brain of such. Love

Brilliant. The graphics are hard to decipher on some of the games but otherwise I really enjoy the variety. Some of these games really relate to what I do at work so it's fantastic practice. I would say there are a few too many ads but it's bearable considering that this app has so much to offer for free. Great work! Very addicting!

The best game ever for training your brain.I love the style of the drawings and every game is lovely and unique. Great job developpers! One thing that should be fixed is the daily training calendars. Sometimes, the training I did on one day be set as the previous day's training and if I do 1 training, it lists as 0, 2 trainings is listed as 1, and 3 as 2. So I always have to do 4 tranings per day to get a checkmark! This is just a small error so I still rate this great game 5 stars!!!

Update 26 Aug 2021: It keeps crashing on android 11. 😔 I just finished the first round, it's a great app. I like how it works and how it looks. I loved that they used a calendar to motivate you to keep the habit of training. And the analysis is also wonderful. ❤❤

Games are varied and fun. Although sometimes I think I get the right answer but get marked wrong. Not all games are easy to understand on the onset. If a score of zero comes up, it would be nice to receive more instructions and an opportunity to repeat the game to insure comprehension.
