Product Description

To defeat the Nano Challenge, one needs speed and precision. Unfortunately neither of these qualities are found in plenty amongst our colleagues at gadgetshop HQ - but this doesn't stop us from playing the infuriatingly addictive game morning, noon and night. As a result we are all now of course always mentally alert and ready for any challenge. A good memory in this game, as in life itself, is key. Perfect for sharpening wits and honing concentration, the Nano Challenge is an addictive memory testing game. The aim is to remember and repeat the sequence of highlighted buttons. But as the timer speeds up, the lights flash faster and it gets harder and harder to keep up. So go forth and memorise, but be warned you will be memorising for a long long time.

Stocking Filler 14 Oct 2010
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
A small, portable take on the Simon Says electronic game. Easy to use and gives you two attempts to remember the sequence. Great little stocking filler for Christmas and small enough to clip onto a belt or pencil case.

I bought this and a few other bits and pieces for my son when he started his new school. Bless him, he didn't know a soul and this made break & lunch times a bit easier to bear. Helped him make a few friends too as others wanted a go.

Good game, good game! 10 Oct 2011
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
Nano Challenge is an attractive looking gadget that I bought from Amazon after seeing it in a gift catalogue. I've been playing it for a few days now - it is very playable and my hope is that my memory is being 'excercised' whilst playing! It looks attractive, the buttons have a pleasant positive pressing action and the ability to switch the sound on or off is useful, as I can imagine it could get annoying for anyone else in the room. The sound effects are proper synthesised sounds and whistles, not just plain 'beeps'.

My only niggle is that if you play it in the pitch dark, the coloured buttons do not actually glow the colour they appear in normal light. The blue, dark green and light green buttons all glow the exact same green colour and both the red and purple buttons glow the same red colour. This means that if you're trying to remember the sequence in your mind by mentally 'saying' the colours in order, or using the colours to help you play, it's impossible to do so in the dark!

It comes with a keyring, but I removed this with some pliers - whilst the game itself is not massive (6.cm long, 4.5cm wide and 2cm deep) in my opinion the unit would be too large to feasibly add to a bunch of keys.

An excellent stocking filler, and a great alternative to more expensive games such as the Nintendo DS if you're going away or are worried about losing/damaging them.

Nano memory game. 12 Jan 2011
Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
This is a very portable memory game suitable for all ages. The sequence of lights to follow gets progressively longer as you succeed in correctly following the pattern. Very good for keeping older brains active too. My 10 year old really likes it.
