This one is no better.

Yes admittedly there are a few drawbacks to this game, mentioned in other reviews, such as the reversal of the X and O keys and the somewhat bizarre animal picture rewards.
Having said that, this game works well on a lot of levels and has different layers which maintain interest for long periods of time. The Brain Age test keeps you coming back daily to try and improve your previous score, whilst the school-style grading of the training games makes you keen to improve on your scores in each game, because really, who doesn't want to be given A+ grades for everything they do?! There is also a challenge mode where you travel around the world answering questions. If completed, which is no mean feat, you are rewarded with awards for various ... Read More:

If you're looking for a brain testing puzzly game got for this. I've not played PQ, so can't compare the two.
The puzzles keep you going, getting harder as you go. Once you get past the wierdy Japanese-esque anime stuff it's alright. Getting the animal card rewards is just odd.
There's enough here to get you practicing, unlocking the puzzles as you do. You can only do one brain age test a day, so there is an incentive to keep coming back.

At the time of writing, there are only two 'Brain Games' for the PSP that I am aware of. This and PQ. This is better then PQ.
Mind Quiz contains a very large number of tests. Tests fall into one of 4 catergories; Calculation, Reflex, Judgement and Memory. You can pick and choose which test you would like to do. Over and above this, there is a daily brain test, which measures your progress over a given period of time. Your results in this section are given as a 'Brain Age'.
Good points.
There are enough tests here to challenge most people. It's being used by both me (age 37) and my daughter (age 5), and we are tested by each quiz. The graphics are OK, they look dated, but they compliment the text suitably. ... Read More:

Do not buy this game!
It's seriously boring and badly thought out (the brain age it gives you is not even accurate - the smallest age is 20 even though the brain stops growing at the age of 18!)
The official psp magazine gave it the horrid score of 2/10 - which is the lowest they've given any game ever!
If you think this is the psp's version of the Dr Kawashima's Brain Training then you are wrong
