It’s a testament to Kawashima’s original lobe-enlarging regime that we remember it so vividly, allowing us to realise that More Brain Training is fundamentally the same. The irritating voice recognition colour game has been replaced with an irritating shape recognition paper/scissor/stone game.

Sudoku returns, with over 100 puzzles of different difficulties, and so good is it- well organised, slick controls, easy navigation- that the title almost feels more like a Sudoku game with tacked on minigames. You’ll certainly never play the rock paper scissors one more than twice. No one in the world has the patience.
