ProduktrezensionenZenses: Ocean (Nintendo DS, 2008)

Good game for short play

I totally dig the Zenses series. I started out with Rainforest, and soon bought Ocean on here. The variety of games are a great way to break away from reality for a while, and the ambient sounds in the background help you relax.

Of the different games in the Ocean edition, I'd say 'Shell Twirl', 'Hot Spot' (although it's a relatively easy minigame), and 'Zen-stones' are my favorites. 'Pearl Diver' is interesting but complicated, as well as 'Turtle Turn', and I find 'Wave Breaker' to be a little too easy. Still, the variety is enjoyable, and coupled with the minigames from the Rainforest edition, it gives you some interesting variety to work with.

I can't wait for the Zenses Zen Garden to come out, so I'll be playing this series for a long time.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Brainless fun for the gamer looking to fill 10 minutes

Mini-games don't have many instructions - you figure it out as you go because the "help" page doesn't really help. Literally, you're trying to remember which shells were where, matching shells to their silhouettes, matching colored pearls... not high science but you're only playing against yourself. So, if you're into setting high scores, then beat yourself! Sound effects are nice - and you only use the touch screen, not any of the buttons, so that's nice and relaxing too. My 71 year old mother likes to prop her DS on its case to play games, so that touch-screen only feature is helpful for her. But this is not the first game she reaches for...Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Zenses review, This game is very good for your mind.

I like this games because it really makes me think outside my box, or my comfort zone. People, well middle age to seniors would benefit from this game. It will get the cobwebs out of our minds and let it do some thinking of a different kind. It has helped me with my memory as well.
As far as dislikes, the only thing would be that I always keep it on the slowest mode, ( I just got it so I'm on the learning curve) it feels like it goes a little to fast, thats are far as the timers go. But with time I know it will help me and I do love the soothing music with the ocean waves calm me down. Thanks for reading and I hope you buy the game. I'm going to buy another one thats out, I can't remember the name but it has a nature look to it.

Good to Unwind

I liked the notion of a non-competitive game; it also helps that it's all done with the stylus. The time pressure is no fun on some of the games, so I ignore them and repeat the ones I like. Those do work for relaxing: a gentle repetition of basic puzzles (I'll increase the difficulty later, if at all). The graphics are clean, the sound is soothing--the price is not painful. Overall, it's worth it for me.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Zenses: Ocean Edition (Nintendo DS)

I like to play puzzle games and these definately fit the bill. I also have the Zenses - Rainforest edition and I love them both. They can be as challenging as you would like them to be, ranging from 0-9. Personally I'm still on the 0 level! These are great for just about any age.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

What a great and relaxant game!

If you're stressed... If you need to relax... If you need to take a break out of your "life", just play this game!

It has some puzzle games to exercise your brain, relaxing at the same time, as well as very smooth music and beautiful and peaceful ocean images.

Either if you want just a 5 minute relax or even an hour of fun, this is your game.

Enjoy it!Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Zenses Ocean

This is a nice slow game for those who want to just relax. The games challenge the mind by testing your memory. The background sounds are relaxing. The feedback from the game is always positive, like "nice try, or good job, would you like to try again". I may have the words wrong, but that's the general idea.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

Zenses: Ocean Edition (Nintendo DS, 2008)

I LOVE the ocean theme of this game. It is soothing and relaxing yet fun and stimulates the mind. I decided to buy it because the price was reasonable and because i wanted a game that you can play for stimulation yet peacefully. No bloody killing, exploding bombs etc.. like alot of other games. this is GREAT!Vollständige Rezension lesen...

too much hype for what it really is

After reading all the reviews on this game I figured I had to have it. Boy what a let down, every game is the same theme only you have to get faster. I was hoping for more of a delightful metal challenge, instead I got what seemed to be a game of where's the shell. Though there are different mini games each are all the same with really no challenge. Big disappointment with this game unless you enjoy doing the same thing over and over and over again.Vollständige Rezension lesen...
