I love to learn random pieces of information. In this game you will learn about various topics from handling grief to washing your clothes properly. Be warned this game does not pack a lot of punches. Basically it gives you five questions for each topic, after you answer a question it gives you more information about the answer to that question. I wish they had video clips or pictures to add to the depth of information. They keep track of progress by a point system where you can earn skins or stamps for your calendar.

I personally love this game!! It has a lot of useful information for your everyday life. It has stuff like how to prepare for a disaster, how to send a formal email, even proper dining etiquette that everyone should know!! I am finding this game to be not only very fun, but exciting cause it also breaks urban myths people have that think they are true but aren't and vice versa such as eating chocolate gives u pimples, etc. It also has stress tips and solutions which i'm sure everyone will love to know!! Overall, great game and very fun!!!

This game has very interesting "fun facts" though the game itself is pretty slow paced and very very easy. It's great for the 12-18 crowd maybe. A bit too easy for me. I would not have bought this if I had the chance to play it first and certainly NOT [...]

I was seeking some sort of a game or DS program to fill the void after playing such GAMEBOY DS games software as Jeopardy, Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader: Back to School, Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day!,or Wheel Of Fortune. This DS title fits the bill.

Calling this a FUN FACT COACH is not really right a correct title for this DS software. You have five different sections you can do a weekly basis with two catalogies of five questions each in the subject for your daily trainning. There is no real coaching Like in My Weight Loss Coach system or My Word Coach.

All of the questions in this program are either True/False, Matching, Multiple selection (this one drives me batty), Ordering or column sorting..These topics are lessons you can take away and use in your daily life. There are not movie or TV trivia..its life lessons from eye care to the economy...From clothes labels to feet care Believe me this is deeper than any questions from ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A FIFTH GRADER.

Will this project tax your brain? GAWD YES..after you are done all five sections (you can review anytime), there is a quiz from all five sections and what has been covered. There is no Puzzle to solve like in WHEEL OF FORTUNE..it is straight forward subjects we adults can use in our daily lives. I know I said it before, but it has been useful to me on a personal level

Is it playable as some sort of a game..YES. However the systems picks what subjects in a catagory that you are to take, ...and there in no DAILY DOUBLE in JEOPARDY for you. and you can play free time with other subjects after you finish your daily trainning.

It is a very straight forward , thought provoking piece of software for ages 10 and up. It will be software that you can use daily and make it routine for your day. It will increase your BRAIN AGE with its subject matters that you will learn from this software.

Take a chance..I think you will find this a program you will use daily and enjoy

This game is very knowledgeable and you get to learn things you did not know, great for kids

I may not have given this "game" a fair trial. But I took it as long as I could.

Borrrring!

Even when I discovered that I didn't know the "fun facts" about a topic that I thought I did (which is to say I got the answers wrong) it was still boring. Presentation is dull. There's no spark. There's nothing even faintly approaching "gameplay".

I am truly more entertained by opening up my Oxford World Atlas (which I did yesterday to look up Botswana--having recently watched the DVD of The #1 Ladies' Detective Agency) or my American Heritage Dictionary (in which one of the gazillion illustrations in the margin will catch my eye so I learn new things) than I was by anything this "game" had to offer.

Yes, it has interesting facts. However, it's very dull and slow. I really wouldn't recommend this to most people, and I myself barely use it anymore.
