Product Description

Do you see what I see? Sharpen focus-power with Flash Focus: Vision Training in Minutes a Day. Fast, fun activities and quick-play sports challenges give eyes a challenging workout they need. Games on the NDS help provide visual perceptual therapy. Number Flash - In this activity, numbers flash very briefly on the top screen. Users must then choose the correct number. As the activity gets harder, the number sequence gets longer. Box Track - A circle is placed in one of three boxes. The challenge is to follow the box with the circle in it as the three shuffle rapidly on the screen. Users must then tap the box with the circle in it. Circle Spot - In this activity, symbols appear for a split second in 12 boxes arranged on the touch screen. Users must tap the only circle among the symbols Letter Count - Users quickly memorize the target letter, then count how many times it appears as a fast-moving series of letters moves across the screen Fast Match - Users quickly look at the two symbols as they flash on the screen, then decide if they matched by tapping on the touch screen. Baseball - Tap the ball on the touch screen as the pitch crosses the plate to score a hit. With each hit, the box gets bigger, making it more challenging to hit the speeding pitch

Good casual game, but that's about it4
A fun diversion for a keeping your eyes sharp. However, tests show no noticeable improvement in vision after using this. Think of this as fun interactive eye exercises, but if you're using glasses you will still need them after using this. Can't beat the price compared to some of the other big-boy titles of the DS. A very good casual title.

I am really enjoying this game. The different focus activities only last a minute or two and some are very fast paced. I like most of the Focus games better than Brain Age games, and as much as Big Brain Accademy. I would definitely recommend to other middle agers like myself who use these games for some quick brain stimulation and to wind down after a hard day at work.

Great game and something different from the norm5
Like the brainage types games this is another with some learning and focus required and good for young and old, old being me! I do enjoy the DS and the brain games as well as the Mario and others of that genre.
