Discover Brain Games

All of a sudden, Ravi Mehta dropped a mail to me asking my views on http://www.discover-brain-games.com/ I approached this website to find different online games in those web-pages. With a curious mind to know abow these games, I went on playing few of those (in fact many of those). But I was really shocked when he came back and said that he has developed those and looking for opinions if those can be transformed into mobile games. No wonder, his scholar mind is definately capable of developing such thing and then I came to a conclusion and wrote him the following about his games -
=====================================
Ravi,

Before I post a review for your site, i would rather suggest some thing to you which I think would make your site more interesting

1. About 8 queens: Placing all 8 queens seem to be rather a difficult task. Any person with normal IQ would try this 4-5 times and might land up saying this is not possible. I would rather suggest to extend this game. Start from placing 4 queens and increase 1 queen in next stage. This would give the user a reason to celebrate and such a guy would certainly get back for the next difficult stage. :)

2. Pie game: this looks like an endless game. Probably it has a lenght when the user gets certain number of pie proportions right but that looks unachievable. This makes it lenghty, i was playing this for lot of time but you know... Rather you can make this multiplayer and keep it best of 10 or something like that, alternatively, think of finding 10 portions right in less number of attempts. Let users compare their scores,

3. Baloons: sometimes the result is in 2 digit + user has to press enter. thus aparently, on a avg, one has to press 3 keys to get it right and by that time the baloon is missed. Result, low score which might lead to disinterest. Rather, if you can take care that the result is only 1 digit and remove the requirement of pressing enter key. That means the user would require pressing of single key to score. This would result in high scores and in my opinion, users would like it.

4. Wall game, sudoku and other look good.

If you have got the message clearly, i am advocating making these games a little easier (within the reach of normal iq), competition-oriented (multi-player game), etc.

Looking forward for more games from you.

Please let me know what you think then i can proceed posting a review on the blog page as previously said.

You may optionally think of placing some info about http://www.need-junction.com/ on your page.

Regards,
Shekhar

====================================

The morale of the story is I would be obliged if you can have a look at http://www.discover-brain-games.com/ and post your reviews as comments to this blog. I shall, in return update Ravi about your comments. Please take those pains and let him know what you think :) Maybe these review would help him to gift us a very good online gaming site...

Rajasthan Royals can still lift the IPL3 trophy...

(After the MATCH-50 of IPL3)

This is for the fans of Rajasthan Royals. The hopes are still alive. Go RR Go!!
Though these are only the thoughts and the race is still on but all the supporters of Rajasthan Royals still think that RR still rocks and they can lift the IPL trophy.

Here is a brief analysis how…
The current IPL situation after the Match - 50 is

Fri Apr 16           51st match - Kings XI Punjab v Deccan Chargers
This would be the critical match and Kings XI Punjab should win if Rajasthan Royals have to proceed towards numero UNO

Sat Apr 17           52nd match - Royal Challengers Bangalore v Mumbai Indians
The result of this match would not affect the position of Rajasthan Royals in any way.

Sat Apr 17           53rd match - Kolkata Knight Riders v Rajasthan Royals
Finally the DO-OR-DIE match for Rajasthan Royals where they do not have any other choice but to win.

Sun Apr 18           54th match - Kings XI Punjab v Chennai Super Kings
Another favour the Kings XI would have to do for Rajasthan Royals, else Chennai Super Kings would tie with Royals and with better run-rate

Sun Apr 18           55th match - Delhi Daredevils v Deccan Chargers
Delhi Daredevels win would push the Chargers out of the race

Mon Apr 19           56th match - Kolkata Knight Riders v Mumbai Indians
The result of this match would not affect the position of Rajasthan Royals in any way.

In this way, Rajasthan Royals can register their presence in TOP-4

Rajasthan Royals would have to overcome the strongest resistance - Mumbai Indians
Wed Apr 21           Semi-Final - Mumbai Indians v Rajasthan Royals

The result of this match - the second Semis - would not affect the position of Rajasthan Royals in any way, statistically.
Thu Apr 22           Semi-Final - Delhi Daredevils v Royal Challengers Bangalore

The result of this match - the second Semis - would not affect the position of Rajasthan Royals in any way, statistically.
Sat Apr 24           3rd Place Play-off - Mumbai Indians v Royal Challengers Bangalore

Here would be the MORTAL COMBAT, where Rajasthan Royals can get to lift the trophy.
Sun Apr 25           Final - Rajasthan Royals v Delhi Daredevils

And here is your winner - RAJASTHAN ROYALS
RR rulzzz!!!
