Pros and cons of Mensa Brain Test app for iPhone and iPad

Mensa Brain Test app good for

Not like the real Mensa test, but good enough to keep your brain active! Only in English available therefore only four stars.
Yes, its real fun for everybody interested in logic games. Especially the time pressure gives a real kick.
Enjoyable and challenging, could benefit from larger question pool. No buyers remorse for me.
Fun and challenging. It could use more variety in the training questions though.
Good fun. Initially more useful before memorization starts to kick in. Learning how to apply the same logic or thought process in other ways seems to be vastly more useful though.
Although questions do repeat after some time, the level and variety are perfect. Its what you would expect from a mensa book turned app that costs only a buck.

Some bad moments

Well, this app just flat out doesnt work properly. Often it tells me ive picked a wrong answer, then shows me the correct answer which is what i had initially picked anyway. Doesnt inspire confidence, and to think i paid for this!
Questions are loaded so that people with a classical education are ranked high. A question like "if you using a 52 card pack of cards and pick an ace, what are you chances of picking another ace". Answers given: 1/13; 1/169; 1/225; and another one I cant quite remember - clearly the answer is 1/13 (or close to) because there is a presupposition that the deck has been reset without the first ace; but you could read into it that this is an overall chance; the question wording can be confusing if you are not careful. Also, their grammar questions are unusually hard using synonyms or words that may be related through a thesaurus as their answer choices. Only one is definitively right while the rest are close in meaning. Again, only classical intelligence is being tested here. STAY CLEAR OF THIS APP as it is not a culturally fair IQ test.
poor. . .I expected much more from the folks at Mensa; same questions over and over, but no solutions; correctly answered all questions but one, very frustrating; I would say time (and money) well wasted, . . . I suppose I should say "well . . . wasted"
Does not show what questions were wrong or why they are wrong...would be nice...
Fun! Need more questions so I dont get the same ones over in different tests!
Great training. Write down the ? You dont know to solve later. Answers arent given or explained but once you see the pattern you know the right one.
