Brain Quest - Nintendo DS - Fact Sheet

Brain Quest

Top Curriculum-Based Quiz Series Offers New Way for Kids to Learn And Play On The Go


Product Description
EA brings American’s No1 bestselling educational series to the Nintendo DS handheld system this September, just in time for back-to-school! Brain Quest, the brand recognized by teachers, trusted by parents, and adored by kids is now interactive for today’s tech savvy kids. In partnership with the series’ publisher Workman Publishing Company, Inc., EA will release two Brain Quest games entered on the curriculum-based series: one for third and fourth graders, and another for fifth and sixth graders.



Staying true to the curriculum-based card deck series, the Brain Quest video games are loaded with over 6,000 unique questions in each game, developed specifically for the third/fourth and fifth/sixth grade levels and can keep kids entertained whether in the car, at home, or while waiting for the school bus. The game’s Brain Mode provides quick to the fun action that enables kids to jump right in, immersing themselves in fast-paced quiz games, as they answer questions on their favourite subjects: English, history, math, science, and geography. Brain Quest adds another element to the fun—a Quest Mode where players follow a light story that pits them against successively more difficult challenges in each category. The game’s Multiplayer Mode allows players to challenge their friends and siblings or play cooperatively, so kids of all ages can get in on the action and enjoy the brain-twisting fun!



Throughout the game, players who answer questions correctly score and redeem points to obtain collectibles that can be unlocked by winning achievements. These collectibles can then be used to customize up to six scenes in the game.
