Introduction

edit

This game, like Brain Age, was supervised by Professor Ryuta Kawashima of Tohoku University. It uses the Rewritable Stage arcade cabinet. The arcade version of The Idolmaster can be converted into this game.

The game has three play modes:

  • All-Japan mode, 15 players linked online
  • Multiplayer mode, 2~4 players in the same arcade
  • One player mode

Player profiles are saved on a rewritable card issued when the users play for the first time. At this time, they choose an animated assistant who provides onscreen instructions and encouragement.

The game includes 39 games divided into three categories, for the areas of the brain each game is meant to train.

It uses the Rakuhira handwriting recognition system, made by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.
