Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was great for the whole family - everyone one loved it from the littles to the grandparents.

Big Brain academy is a fun game to play with family and friends alike.

Fun game for all ages. All kinds of different puzzles. Good for keeping the mind fresh.

Kids love it, nice to get some different types of brain training in every once in a while.

Fun game with the kids, but my little one does get a little frustrated with it.

Very challenging game. Lots of fun puzzles that get your brain really working.

Buy it on sale, and only if you have friends to play it with. As a solo game it's fine, but it works best when you play with other people.

Great brain teaser game with fun puzzles while you learn. My 11 year old loves it!

Can set individual level of each player so that it’s more competitive, different kinds of fun challenges like memory and math even for little kids and elderly!

We love this game!! My kids ages 5, 7, 9, 19 and me and my husband have a blast playing it!

Awesome game for the whole family!! Great for my 9 year old as well as my 20 somethings.

Kids loved this game. Anyone can play this game and it’s great to have in our collection.

Great game all ages , fun on line to see just how smart you are.

Fun for the whole family. Nothing says fun better than getting owned by your children.

This game is so fun to play with your friends. You can compete to see who is smartest

Love playing this with my niece and nephew - they don't realize they're learning.

This is a game that can be played by anyone, good for kids as well as parents a+

Fun and easy pick up and play game. It is nice for younger players because you can set the difficulty level lower for them to even out the playing field.

I've been curious about Big Brain Academy for a while. I thought it might be like brain age on the DS. It is and it isn't. Its a compilation of mini games broken into 5 categories designed that exercise your mind. In single player the minigames get progressively more challenging as you get things right, but will dial down if you get them wrong. You can play the game in handheld mode to use the touch screen, or you can use a single joycon / pro controller. I think the game is best in handheld mode. It has a Multiplayer aspect where you go head to head in each minigame. You can set your difficulty, however, the lower difficulty in multiplayer truly gives those players an advantage. You are rewarded in the game with unlockables such as additional items that can be used to change the look of your avatar. You can unlock a mode that starts at a higher challenge level. All in all I think the game is just OK. The game mechanics are simple enough, minigames are broken into 5 categories. Each category only has a hand full of games. In all the mini games are of descent quality but the rounds are very short (maybe 60 seconds). The multi-player turns out to be fairly fun, however, people who play on easy mode in the multiplayer matches seem to have a real advantage. I think that Big brain academy has some really great mini-games but just don't think the game has lasting power (unless they add more minigames or change the length of time minigames can go.

New Big Brain for the switch. Educational and learning fun that keeps the kids busy.
