I came across Brainova: IQ Test & Logic Game on Google Play a few months ago and have been using it ever since. It's a collection of short, challenging puzzles and logic exercises designed to test your reasoning, memory, and problem-solving skills. The developers, FALCON GAME, first launched the app in 2019, and it's available for free on both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. I'm honestly surprised it only has around 500,000 installs on Google Play, given how polished it feels. You can download and install it straight away, and there's no mandatory registration to start playing, which I appreciate. That said, the free version does include ads and offers in-app purchases if you want to remove them or unlock specific test packs.

Using the app is pretty straightforward. You open it, and you're presented with a series of timed logic puzzles, pattern recognition tasks, and math-based challenges. Each session usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes. A tip I've picked up is to take your time on the first few puzzles—the difficulty ramps up quickly, so rushing can mess up your score. If you find a certain type of puzzle hard, you can repeat that section to improve before moving on. The app tracks your progress and gives you a rough IQ score estimate based on your performance, but it's clearly just for fun. I wouldn't treat it as a serious clinical test.

When I compare Brainova to other similar apps on Google Play like "IQ Test – Brain Training" or "Mensa IQ Test," I choose Brainova mainly because it feels lighter and less pushy about paid features. Those other apps often bury you in ads every two minutes or demand payment after a single session. Brainova gives you a good handful of free tests before nudging you toward the premium options. Also, the interface is clean and modern, which isn't always the case with puzzle apps. I've been using it for months now, and I still find the puzzles fresh and genuinely tricky. It's not trying to be a replacement for something like Lumosity, which is more about daily brain training, but for a quick IQ-style challenge, it does the job well.

Features

  • 🧩 Sharp Focus on Pattern Logic Over Fluff – Unlike the popular "Mensa IQ Test" app, which mixes in a lot of verbal reasoning, Brainova leans heavily into visual pattern recognition and logic grids. This makes it feel very different and, in my opinion, more engaging if you enjoy puzzles that rely on shape and sequence analysis.
  • ⏱️ No Mandatory Login or Account Creation – Compared to an app like "IQ Test – Brain Training," which requires you to sign up to save your results, Brainova lets you jump directly into the game. You can download the app, install it, and start solving puzzles within seconds without giving up your email address.
  • 📊 Simple, Non-Overwhelming Progress Tracking – Instead of bombarding you with daily streaks, reminders, and complex dashboards like "Lumosity," Brainova keeps it simple. You get a straightforward score and a rough IQ estimate per test session. I find this less stressful and more focused on the actual puzzles.

Pros

  • 🎯 Clean, Ad-Light Free Experience – After installing Brainova from Google Play, I found the free version has way fewer interstitial ads than “IQ Test Pro.” You can often play three or four full puzzles in a row without an interruption.
  • ⚡ Fast Loading and No Lag – The app is very lightweight compared to "Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles." It doesn't drain my battery or feel bloated with unnecessary animations, which makes it great for quick sessions.
  • 🧠 Genuinely Challenging Puzzles – Brainova's puzzles feel harder and more thoughtfully designed than the ones in "Peak – Brain Training," where many feel repetitive after a week. I get a real sense of accomplishment from solving Brainova's trickier logic games.

Cons

  • 🕒 Lack of a Daily Challenge Mode – Unlike "Lumosity" or "Elevate," Brainova doesn't have a specific "daily puzzle" feature. This means there's less reason to open the app every day, and I sometimes forget about it for weeks at a time.
  • 🔐 Limited Free Content Without Paying – The free version on Google Play runs out of high-quality tests relatively quickly. After completing the initial set, you are heavily nudged towards a one-time in-app purchase. Free users on "IQ Test – Brain Training" get more variety over a longer period.
  • 📉 No Multiplayer or Comparison Features – You cannot directly compare your IQ score estimate with friends or other users within the app, a feature present in apps like "Trivia Crack." This makes the experience feel a bit solitary and less motivating.
  • 💾 No Cloud Save for Progress – If I uninstall and reinstall the app, I lose all my previous test scores and progress. Competing apps like "Mensa IQ Test" now offer a basic cloud sync feature, which Brainova is missing.
