This game is merely that, a game. It does not truly measure your brain waves to control the air flow as the game indicates. The headset merely uses your skin surface to complete a circuit and then it controls the fan. Not sure if the headset has the preprogramed routine, or if the base does. I confirmed this function by completing the circuit with my hand (i.e. - Using one hand, I attached the two clips to two fingers and then touched the forehead sensor with a third finger). Now unless brain waves travel through your hand as well, which they don't, the fan in the base began to turn on and off as if though I had it on my head. Thus confirming that the forehead sensor and clip sensors are merely positive and negative connections, and once connected, they complete the circuit and the headset then transmits to the base.
Don't get me wrong, an educated adult will quickly see through the smoke and mirrors and loose interest. But a child won't. They will indeed believe that they are controlling the device and want to show off to their friends. I can also see the educational value for those kids who have trouble concentrating and staying focused. Since they will be in awe of the game, they will learn to concentrate and focus.
Though the game attracted me by the brain wave claim, which it didn't deliver, since I did see the educational value for kids in it, I gave the game to my nephew who was in awe of it as I thought he'd be.Get more detail about Mindflex Game.
