It appears that your brain is more or less intact after Ninjadoodle's last clever attempt to bust it. You removed matchsticks, thought outside the box, and conserved your precious mouse clicks to get a low score in their puzzle minigame title, Bustabrain. But tell me, dear reader, are you ready to face the new terror known as "the Dice of Doom?" Can the grey squishy stuff between your ears handle even more puzzly challenges? If so, behold as Ninjadoodle returns with another helping of stylized minigames in Bustabrain 2.
Ninjadoodle's latest offering consists of 30 new minigames based on the same type of challenges in the previous title. Familiar brainbusters include dragging puzzles, matchstick removals, code breakers, comic panels, and rebuses (rebii?) to name a few. Simply follow each level's instructions and use the mouse to click or drag various items. Keep in mind that every mouse click is tracked, with bonuses awarded for a lower number of clicks. What's new this time around are the "Dice of Doom," a series of small black-and-white dice hidden on every level of the game. Completionists and those trying for a low score will want to seek these out, as they remove two mouse clicks when found and give players a -20 click bonus for finding all 30.
Bustabrain 2 is a fun break game, with none of the challenges too tricky to keep you stumped for long. While it would have been nice to have seen more original level content breaking from the mold of the first game, what is there is entertaining and should satisfy most casual players. Up for another round? Then put those running shorts on your head and start exercising your brain once again!
