This is a wonderful game! The layout is nice. The training games are new and fresh. The relaxation eye exercises at the end of the taining is great. You can do the daily exercises selected for you in relation to your eye test or use custom training mode. If you've played Brain Age or Brain Age 2 you will notice some similar formats but in no way is this a repeat. I would highly recommend this game. It is fun and it really does give your vision a workout. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Like Brain Age for the eyes

If you've played Brain Age, you'll know what to expect from this game. It's somewhat fun. Doesn't take long at all to do the exercises. Seems it's more of an observance teacher than something to improve eyesight.

Kills time...

I don't know if it really "trains your eyes" that being said... it's fun. That's all that should matter when you buy a game anyway, right? It's great when you have a few minutes and nothing to do. What's nice about it is that, like the BrainAge games, it is "ageless". I'm a 21 year old female and I was never really a "gammer" but the DS brought me into it... this game is enjoyable but I think that it would also work for younger ages too. It doesn't have the rpg thing that many people are looking for so it might not work for some for that reason. I only took off a star for the fact that certain things get a little tedious. (Why can't you "skip" the lessons for example?... you can FF but only page at a time) If you like BrainAge you'll like this.

The best game for the Nintendo DS

I recently purchased 4 games for my Nintendo DS lite, Flash Focus is the best game in my personal opinion for this system. It is fun, easy to use, and keeps you on your toes. Having a sharp mind is cool. I highly recommend this game for gamers of all ages. President, Brooklyn Institute of Massage Therapy ( Brooklyn, New York ).

The game is fun, if you like Brain Academy and these types of games. My 7 year old son loves the sport games. It is a great visual training. I like to play those games on trips but even at home I play it now. Would buy it again.

This game takes alot of practice everyday to get good. I like challenging myself. The sport games are fun. If you want to improve your hand eye coordination this is the game for you.

I loved the game from the time that i loaded it. Great game for agility especially for those of us who are fighting the effects of aging.

It's not easy!!! But I think the training pays off!!

Yes, this is like a "Brain Age" for the eyes. That said, it is NOT easy albeit pretty darn accurate at least for this reviewer as it has my age right around the right neighboorhood (between 39 - 45 when my real age is 40).

Nevertheless, a good workout and I do think it is effective in training the eyes to work a little faster. After having played this over a few months, I discover myself performing better on some of the minigames in both Brain Age (low to high) and Big Brain Academy (the number memorizing game under "memory").

My only complaint (and this is only my opinoin): The new eye age check is based on the last eye age check. If a player did well on a previous eye check, the next eye check will add more difficulty. That difficulty may not necessarily be surpassed yet then the game will report that the player had results that "dropped dramatically" when the reason for the drop may be in the increased difficulty level and not necessarily in the skill. That can be misleading and can give a blow to a player's confidence level. It would be interesting to know statistically how the score is generated.

Nevertheless, with both mundane activities as well as sports activities and explanations as to how certain skills may be beneficial in certain sporting events, the game is very well done. Stick with it and don't let the game get you down if you don't perform quite as well one time than another. There are multiple factors that tie in including a player's baseline fatigue, the lighting, the time of day, et cetera.

Fun, but gets monotonous

It is a fun game, and it really does train your eyes to catch things--for a while anyway. Eventually though, you're going to stop playing because it starts to get a little repetitive day after day after day of the same activities. It was fun for a while though, and you can always pick it back up eventually.

LOVE IT!

This is a vey fun game! Me and my husband spend time trying to 'out EYE age' eachother. Its a lot of fun. I like how you have to UNlock the game as you progress. We laughed at the very first time we played as I (a 27 year old) got a 45 eye age and my hubby (25) got a 30 eye age (which means our eyes are older than us). We are much better now and its sooooooooo much fun!
