Majesco will be rolling out yet another brain game on one of its favorite gaming platforms, Left Brain Right Brain 2. This sequel was developed by Kokolo Corporation, and it is hoped that Left Brain Right Brain 2 will be able to help players develop their ambidexterity by using both hands to play all-new mental training games which feature an updated graphic presentation. Sounds like a pretty challenging game to me, but it should provide a fair number of laughs in the beginning before frustration creeps in.

The Left Brain Right Brain game series is designed to equally train a player’s weak and dominant hands via logic-based mini-games that require players to rotate the DS in book style play. In Left Brain Right Brain 2, players use the Touch Screen in 20 new games based on speed, accuracy, association, recognition, memory and strategy. Games like Balloon Attack, Block Buster, Cosmic Seesaw and Space Escape, among others, strengthen the left and right hemispheres of the brain by making players switch hands throughout play. Afterwards, players can monitor personal progress and assess improvement by reviewing development percentages for each hand. Gamers can also tailor their favorite mental-training routine in the new Exercises mode, while testing ‘good’ and ‘weak’ hands via three random games in Ambidexterity Check. Finally, players can compete with a friend in both single and multi-card multiplayer mode to prove who has the mental skills to be truly ambidextrous.

No idea on how much Left Brain Right Brain 2 will cost when it rolls out this December, but make sure you have a mug of hot chocolate while you curl up in your lazy chair playing this title on your DS.
