Brainscape

Authors:lynne ostergren and W. Jeffrey Wilson
Genre:Educational
Released:1985
Review:

Explore the human brain! In this educational game, you must visit as many parts of the brain and collect as many "treasures" (chiefly different types of cell) as you can. Uses anatomical directions (rostral, caudal, ventral, etc.) instead of compass points for travel. Quizzes the player on neuroanatomy in certain places (all answers can be found in the game). Contains a small maze - actually, the whole game is pretty hard to map. Not much as a game in itself, but it's probably worth a look for all you budding neuroanatomists out there.

Rating: **
