Software to test your brain

By Nick Mead on 8 January, 2008

Brain LogoA while back, Sudoku was all the rage but I never tried it. I haven't got a mathematical brain in truth although one of the reasons is that there are so many other fun alternatives out there. There are many tests and quizzes on Softonic to test everything from your general knowledge to problem solving ability and powers of logic.

As an Englishman, one of my favourites is Pub Quiz Machine which is general knowledge based. It features questions on topics ranging from Film and Sport to Pot Luck. The format is very similar to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire but without the annoying host. If only it served pints of beer, it would be the perfect game. If you're looking for something a bit more sophisticated, then Trivia Machine features harder questions and a more simple, straightforward format. If you think your world knowledge is pretty impressive, then try World of Where. It tests you on your knowledge of capital cities, flags and locations of countries worldwide.

On the other hand, if you want something that just flexes your brain muscles, then Brain Booster is a pretty tough workout. The game is based on word and numeric tests of logic that proceed through 8 levels of difficulty that will either leave you feeling like Einstein or tearing your hair out. Brain Workout covers a wider range of skills including Logic, Memory, Verbal, Numeric and Spacial awareness and despite the poor graphics and presentation, is one of the toughest tests you'll find.

Finally, if it's your knowledge of the Bible that you'd like to test, Scripture Challenge is one of the few options out there for Christians that will test your knowledge from both the Old and New testaments.

    Mr Mead, I was just doing a vanity trawl around the latest blogs to see if anyone was actually using our software when I came across your post. I'd just like to thank you for giving our Pub Quiz Machine software such (unsolicited) high praise - you are a gentleman! But more importantly, I'd like to draw your attention to the latest version which has recently been released. You can download it here Pub Quiz Machine 2008 and we hope you'll find it an improvement on the original. It has loads more new questions and best of all its FREE!! I'm aware that this is a shameless plug and I hope you'll forgive me - but I also hope that you'll give your honest opinion on the new release and let me know if it lives up to your expectations. I assure you that the next version will also serve pints of John Smiths so you will eventually get your perfect game. Thanks for the support, Rorschach Software
