Can my child play Brain Test without help?

Most children of six or older can, after watching the first stage. Younger children may need an adult to read instructions or help with controls.

Is it educational?

Some Junior games involve counting, letters or shapes; others are simply gentle fun. The description on the game page will say what it covers.

How long is a stage?

Usually one to three minutes. A session of five or six stages fits comfortably into a short break.
