The Wii sequel to Big Brain Academy for Nintendo DS includes three multiplayer modes for up to eight players. Players also can exchange student-record books with other players over WiiConnect24 and compete against their save data. With 15 new activities that challenge the brain in single-player Test and Practice modes Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree sees how players measure up in five categories: Identify Memorize Analyze Compute and Visualize. All activities are designed around the Wii Remote s pointer. Players can play solo with one Wii Remote or pass it around like a relay baton in group competitions. Sample activities: The activities in Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree are fun minigames with a ton of variety and they re meant to be played rapid-fire for a short time as players push their brains to do more than they did the day before.

When it becomes more difficult Art Parts flips the unfinished scene sideways or flips it upside-down. Balloon Burst: In this Compute activity players must pop balloons in rising numerical order. At its easiest there are few balloons shown at once. On a higher difficulty level Balloon Burst sends in more balloons including some with negative numbers. Fast Focus: In this Identify activity players see a distorted image that slowly returns to normal. Players must select what it is as soon as they figure it out. As it grows more difficult Fast Focus starts with a more heavily distorted image so it takes longer to identify what it is. How to progress through the game: When players start a new game they ll meet the whimsical Dr. Lobe who will suggest that they take on the Test mode challenge: playing all 15 activities that span the five brainy categories. He ll tell players how big their brain is based on how well they did and how fast they did it. He ll
