Is this game totally different from brain quest game?

I don't know - only have Brain Quest Smart....the game can have multiple players ranging from Kindergarten to teens/adults. You spin, get a topic, ask the grade/age appropriate question, earn a colored piece, and upon earning enough of those get a letter - the winner is the person who spells Smart first. I don't know if the game you are referring to is different or not.

Same game, but they have different answers. I have both, and we have exhausted the Scrabble branded game just from playing it so much. We just purchased the "Electronic Catch Phrase" and it has all new answers.

Basic game is similar, but details and 'setting' different enough to add variety to game playing. Still focuses on working together as a team to win. I think more difficult. If you enjoyed Forbidden Island, you will enjoy Forbidden Desert. I would recommend buying to play with family and friends.

It has its own unique game play. Unlike DnD (boardgame) the tiles are set up by the storyline. You feel more like a character in MnM, than DnD. I'll put it like this. MnM is an adventure that makes you bite your nails when things get hairy. DnD ( good game also) is more of a dungeon crawlers wet dream... lots of action, no connection.

Not really puzzles. It's a very linear game. More like a movie with choices in some situations. A few spots you have choices that will change the different endings, but to directly answer your question. No there aren't many puzzles.

This is a trivia game that asks questions similar to that of Trivial Pursuit. I would not recommend this game for most children, but I do find it quite enjoyable to play.

as far as I understood they are not the same game - I only read reviews on the ganes

The 4th edition is only different from the 1st-3rd in appearance, the rules are the same, but for example, one edition has sea tiles instead of borders.This is the basic, original game with a board extension for extra players, which is nice. The other "editions" are variations which simplify the game (family, junior) or change it up completely (Star Trek Catan) - probably not good starting points unless kids or complete trekkies are involved. Then there are expansions which require the core game (seafarers, cities & knights, traders & barbarians, explorers & pirates) and also have their own extension expansions.So yeah, just start with the core + extension.

The game is essentially the same, same characters, same plot, same choices and so on, the only difference that I know of is the much enhanced graphics and a whole bunch of extra content that give more insight in what happens inbetween the story events and give extra info about characters personalities, not only the main characters but others as well. I have the DS-version as well which is also the same but without the extra content but I still recommend buying this too but if added bonus content is not important to you then there is nothing exactly new in the game story wise.

Yes to both, it seems. I have never played the original, but the story seems to be a direct continuation from it. That might explain why some of the "tutorials" seem a bit lacking, but I can't say for sure. Personally, I didn't mind playing this one without the original. It's easy enough to figure out the basic premise, and, at least for me, it gave it a mystery feel. I didn't know exactly what had happened before, so I was piecing it together as I went. Side note: I do recommend that you get the wii-mote + if you don't already have it. The newer Wii games are much better with the fine-tuned sensors. I hope that answered your questions.

Yes and No, it has all the same art work on the tiles but the pawns have been upgraded to nicer pieces. They have also add a special variant of the rules which give the players spells they can use if they wish this is optional set of rules and is in no way needed to play the game, if you are happy with the original rules (like we are) just play with them.

From my experience of playig both versions, i would say this one is less buggy and glitchy. A lot of time in the regular version i would get stuck in a moutain or tight spot. It was annoying. But i never had any problems like that im this one.

No, I don't think it's too easy. The game comes with challenges (pictures showing 100 different starting board layouts), from easy to extremely difficult. IQ Fit, IQ Link, and Bend It are games in the same universe and may be a little more challenging -- definitely none of the smart adults with multiple college degrees we know has made it through all the challenges for any of these. . . (I mean, they aren't spending hours each day trying, either, but none of these games is a slam dunk once you get out of the "beginner" level.)

I don't believe there is a difference, not one that I am aware of at least. It's a fun game though I can tell you that!

Both games are a bit challenging. I haven't completed Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze to assess the whole game, but I don't think Returns is any harder. If you thought the previous one was too difficult, you might not like this one either. I would recommend Super Mario 3D World as it is easier but a lot of fun.

The previous Persona games are not associated with this one as far as story and characters. Just standard gameplay mechanics and some systems are the same. Just like if your familiar with Final Fantasy games, they are all individual as far as story and plot

i have no idea, but i love it and it kicks my butt every time! this is good for mental stimulation, a good anti dementia game...seriously, this type of stimulation is good for maintaining mental acuity.
