Summary

Brain Voyage lets you travel the globe alongside renowned German board‑game designer Dr. Reiner Knizia. In each of the 13 cities the game visits, Knizia steps in as a friendly guide, breaking down the logic behind every brain‑teasing challenge. His commentary feels like a mini‑lecture that’s surprisingly easy to follow, turning abstract puzzles into bite‑size lessons. The blend of travel and tutorial gives the DS title a distinctive educational charm that sets it apart from typical handheld fare.

Storyline

Brain Voyage on Nintendo DS challenges players with a collection of 16 core puzzles, each offered in five different variants. The variants range from familiar clones such as Memory and Minesweeper to a unique poker‑solitaire hybrid where dealt cards must be arranged on a grid to form the strongest hands.
After each round the game awards a bronze, silver, or gold medal based on the score, and grants coins. Those coins can be spent to unlock new cities, which bring fresh puzzles, or to purchase higher difficulty levels for any puzzle the player has already opened.
