Does your brain need some hot puzzle action? Not to fret! Agetec has the answer, though you'll just have to wait until next February to get down with the puzzles. The publisher's latest, the Brain Buster Puzzle Pak is set to bring five different games to the DS: Sudoku, Kakuro, Light Up, Nurikabe, and Slitherlink (aka Fences), all of which were created in conjunction with popular Japanese puzzle mag Nikoli.[Via press release]

This is a good thing, but including more different types of puzzles would be a Better Thing. Sudoku is almost completely played out - solution methods are so fully documented that there are entire books dedicated only to documenting the methods used, and containing virtually no actual puzzles. Kakuro is fast approaching the same fate, although the math element makes it mildly less approachable.
Most surprising is the fact that the lineup is missing Hitori and Heyawake. Ideally, the game would feature -all- of Nikoli's non-language-dependent games. Hopefully, there will be a "Volume 2."
