Product Description

Platform: Sony PSP

PQ: Practical Intelligence Quotient has players solve a series of graphical puzzles set in a virtual world. Puzzles include such tasks as moving blocks into required positions while avoiding obstacles. Based on the amount of time and number of moves it takes you to solve the puzzles, the game determines your IQ. As the main focus of the game is to determine your IQ, controls are being kept simple. You'll interact with the game only with the D-pad and with the circle button, which should leave your mind free to think about the solution to the puzzle. PQ uses the PSP system's Infrastructure Mode and allows players to post their PQ score on the worldwide ranking site to see how they rank against other players around the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fun and Brain Strengthening January 21, 2006
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
The PSP PQ game - Practical Intelligence Quotient - claims to be an IQ test game that will give you a fully accurate IQ reading once you finish its 100 mini-games.

I've taken many, many IQ tests over the years, including several that were professionally given. There are many different aspects to a traditional IQ test. There are many different facets to "intelligence", and spatial organization is only one of them.

This game tests primarily the logic aspects of intelligence. You stack blocks to form stairs. You push buttons to get doors to open and close. You find your way through a maze. Sometimes you figure out paths that dodge around guards with flashlights. At other times you have to move blocks with laser beams, or block the beams.

All of these puzzles are standard puzzles you'll find in all sorts of other handheld games. In fact, I though the WarioWare twisted games were brilliant as sort of an IQ test, especially because you had to figure out what each mini-game was about without any instruction at all. Compared to twisted, this game is very tame. Little dude walks step by step. He picks up blocks, he puts them down.

Here's my issue with the game. The game has artificial rules that aren't always obvious. You can push blocks off of some walls, but not others - and there's no on screen sign to indicate which is which. You're judged by the moves you make, but sometimes you can't tell an attribute about an item until you touch it. So it's raw chance if you pick up the right or wrong one first.

Also, the little wire-frame graphics are cute, but not always very clear. There were times that I couldn't really tell what the layout was. All you can do is "spin camera left" and "spin camera right".

3.0 out of 5 stars My Head is going to burst!!! December 3, 2008

This is an interesting game and I bet it would be great for someone that likes to memorize stuff. I'm not one of those people and I think my head is going to burst from all the memory games! So, remember this review (if you can!) when your head is about to burst from all the memorization. Yiks!

2.0 out of 5 stars OKAY a real review January 26, 2006
Platform for Display:Sony PSP
Fun: 2.0 out of 5 stars   
I am admittedly a casual gamer. Meaning I like games that are fun and you don't get stuck on. Games that you can play again and again and feel like you just had a blast. It does not need to be and rearely is a game that you have to play for hours on end to get real enjoyment out of it. With that knowlege, as a casual gamer, this game stinks. Sorry, but it does. I like puzzle games. Intelligence cube on the psone, tetris, bust a move, and most recently polarium have all been my favorites and extremely addicting gems. PQ is not. It is hard as all get out, and you will get stuck for days on one puzzle. A better thinking puzzle game is smart bomb on the psp. THis is hard but it is hard because you have time limits. It is not hard because it is impossble to figure out like PQ. But if you enjoy spending your years figuring out impossible puzzles, this is for you. Hope this helps.
