First of all this isn't a game you sit down and play for hours. It's a game you play for a few minutes every once in a while. This is what makes it fun. You start iut the game with a simple eye age test. For most people its way up there in the 40's and higher, your eye age improves over time. It has a wide variety of games to train your eyes. It also has a few sports in there too. I gave it a 4 because the game gets very boring if you play it for more than ten minutes everyday. Its a good game overall and i'm buying another one for my brother because he likes it. Hope you have fun, my eye age after a week 35--- still pretty bad considering my age :)
More of a training program than a game, "Flash Focus" probably wouldn't appeal much to game-oriented kids or those seeking a "shooter"-type experience. It's pitch is more intellectual than most, and is based on scientific research, the application of which through the program allows you to refine and enhance visual abilities that are useful in sports, reading, and many other kinds of functional activities. Rather interactive and individualized, the program tests your eye age and then programs a variety of training activities to enhance differing visual skills; these activities vary from day to day, and you can chart your growth and progress in the areas; not bad! The sports activities include baseball, football, boxing, soccer, table tennis, volleyball and more, and you can elect just to go into those sub-programs without doing the training. "Flash Focus" is smart, and a kick in its own quiet way!Read full review
I bought this game at the suggestion of a specialist working with my young daughter, who has visual perceptual problems. She disliked the doctor's recommended therapy. She likes this game and doesn't fight me about playing it. She often plays it without even being asked. Her visual perception has improved greatly. My whole family plays it at least occasionally. It has helped all of us. The game allows for up to 4 people to keep an ongoing profile going. It tests your "eye age" and keeps track of your scores so you can see what areas you're improving in and what areas still need help. It unlocks more games as you play the game more times to keep it interesting. Some games are sports-related like football(running with the ball and dodging tackles), soccer (passing the ball to teammates or kicking goals), boxing (making accurate hits and dodging opponents hits), table tennis (hitting returns), baseball (batting), and basketball (seeing your teammates and remembering where they are). Some games are more academic like remembering a number that flashes briefly on the screen, keeping track of an item covered by a box that is mixed around with other boxes, touching quickly appearing and moving boxes, counting and remembering how many of an object flashes on the screen and so on. Scores are based on accuracy and difficulty so you have more accurate comparisons between your own scores and between players' scores. There are many activities and they all increase in difficulty. That is what makes this game good for all ages. Anyone that can play a DS game can play this game and find at least some challenges. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to improve their hand-eye coordination or visual memory.Read full review
I love this kind of educational brain challenging DS games, if you liked Brain Age 1 and 2 is very likely that you will like this game as well. The games are funny and help you to develop your focus abilities, which is very necessary in real life. You can make an eye check test for day and it tells you, your eye age, and when you practice you mark a stamp in the calendar just like brain age. You have to play in order to unblock more games which is a lot of fun, it has sports games as well, like baseball, table tennis, basketball and box, my favorites until now, are table tennis and baseball. I haven‘t unblock all of the games yet since I just bought it, but the games I have plaid until now are great. Thanks Nintendo DS for this kind of educational funny games!!! :)
This is a great set of games to stimulate my brain.
