Pros & Cons
Pros
On/off/mute the loud sounds switch is on the back. There is a repeat button, which comes in handy if you want to play the same level again. The volume is a bit loud, but you can play it with out any sound if you like.
This game is quite addictive! If you love addictive games and want to find a new one to lose yourself in, brainbolt genius is for you. It’s a great game for adults and kids, although probably for ages six or seven and up. It is so fun and addicting!
Brainbolt blows me away with its friendly look and can’t-put-them-down games. I love challenges for the brain and thought i would easily conquer this one. This game is fun but very difficult (for old-timers like us).
Pleasantly surprised. With a retail cost of twenty-seven bucks this is probably pricier than it needs to be for what it does, but it does make a really good gift. Easy purchase, easy fun.
Brainbolt genius is like simon on steroids! The ability to choose different games each time elevates this last simon or even a bopit. At the risk of dating myself, this little game reminds me of the old merlin handheld electronic game from the 80's.
Cons
It’s just alright. The medium is the message.

The game appears to be of good quality.
They all had to be returned for various reasons mostly, cheaply built and un intuitive.
After putting the 3aaa batteries(not included) into the unit it has been flashing lights and pressing buttons all around.
Price
Brainbolt is an incredibly addicting memory game for passing the time--and not outrageously priced!
