Lol. I'm sure it would hurt the heads, of those who hardly use their brain matter. Same happens with any part of the body, that isn't used thoroughly for a while.

Isn't the minimum achievable age in the game itself 20-25 or something? Does that count as a reference? If it is, it would be stupid to that this game with people under that age, that's not what the theory behind the game was aimed at.

I'm guessing that the maths tests weren't geared up to test the area that such games are designed to improve, namely fast maths. If the test was timed with more questions than any child was likely to answer and the results factored then number of correct answers in as well as the ratio of correct/incorrect that would surely have demonstrated significant improvement as is shown in the games in-built improvement tracking features.
