Following the foundation laid by The Lost Mind of Dr. Brain, this edition incorporates puzzles designed to stimulate distinct cognitive abilities, all set within a thematic framework revolving around time travel.
Gameplay
The game preserves the straightforward point-and-click interface, presenting players with the task of solving 10 distinct puzzles. Throughout the experience, Dr. Brain serves as a guide, providing hints and feedback. Three difficulty settings are available—novice, expert, and genius—each containing a unique collection of 20 fixed mini-games. Players have the flexibility to change difficulty levels at any point, with advancement determined by accumulating scores; roughly 12,000 points are required to complete a level. Successful puzzle completion grants 250 points on novice, 1,000 points on expert, and 2,250 points on genius.
The primary menu features a mini-game inspired by Space Invaders, where users select menu items by shooting at corresponding spacecraft.
