Game Facts:
Mind Quest is some sort of Brain Training game on CD-i, offering you all kinds of brain games to stimulate your ability to solve, memorize and think logically. It was reviewed in USA CD-i Magazine issue 2, but somehow it was never released in the end. The reason for this is still unknown. The game plays very well and it looks like a complete title, we didn't find any bugs in it, but perhaps it depends on the type of player you are testing it on. It is a base-case CD-i title, you don't need a Digital Video Cartridge.Review:
There are crossword puzzles, sliding picture puzzles, mathematical puzzles, visual puzzles and all kind of logic puzzles to solve. It is a collection of minigames. There are three difficulty levels and the characters in the game even give you feedback on how you perform. There is a high score table so you can improve on your score every time. Navigation can be a bit confusing but the execution is very nice. It is a pity this game was never released.
