What are some good mind-stimulating Wii games?

Question

I'm looking for games for the Wii similar to "Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree" for the Wii and "Mind Quiz" and "Loco Roco" for the PSP.

They don't have to be exactly like these games - just games that engage the mind. Make you think.

I'm mainly looking for Wii games, but if you know any PSP games like that feel free to mention them.

Please only mention games that you've played before and recommend. Don't just look it up on Google and list all of the ones you know. I only want reviews from people who have experienced the games they are mentioning.

Any game that makes you think or trains your brain is fine.

Answer 1

The only good one other than Big Brain Academy that I can think of is Boom Blox.

Its a game where you basically have to look at a puzzle (a stack or formation of blocks) and, depending on the situation, determine the best way to approach it.

Some of the games are like Jenga, where you have to pull blocks out without knocking the entire structure over. Other games require you to hurl balls in order to knock certain blocks out without knocking everything over.

There are many modes, with a huge single player campaign as well as many very good multiplayer games. I always recommend Boom Blox, and I highly recommend it to you since you're looking for a puzzler.

Answer 2

Mercury Meltdown Revolution

Trauma Center: New Blood

Answer 3

Boom Blox has a few puzzles that qualify as "perplexing".

Answer 4

I was also going to suggest boom blox.  One of the level hints is "don't think too hard, just throw!"  Well, the phd engineering student I played with looked at me and said, "Don't think too hard?  We've been wracking our brains for half an hour on this level!"

It's a brilliant game, very fun, and really makes you think to solve some of the puzzles!

None of my other games are very brain-intensive, and I haven't played the ones you mentioned.  As a bonus, boom blox is reviewed very highly, and has a high rating on the vast majority of game ranking sites.
