From developer ASK Co. MinDStorm will offer a host of exciting new game modes, features and challenges, all designed to stimulate and improve the player’s brain functions as well as being fun to play.

The game features ten distinct challenge types, each being simple to pick up and play using the touch screen and microphone. The challenges have been designed to enhance the player’s reason, endurance, analysis, intuition and observation.

As players improve they will be taxed with increasingly more difficult challenges, with general knowledge and geography-based challenges also included alongside sliding puzzles, mazes and spot the difference games.

The challenges the game throws at the player will also change depending on the environment the player is situated. If you’re on a bumpy train ride then the game will remove the tasks requiring precise stylus action, and when in public the game will omit challenges which require the use of the microphone.

MinDStorm is scheduled for release for the Nintendo DS on May 4.
