The Multimedia! IQ Test (sic) is an entertainment that is hard to resist. You don’t have to sit with dozens of others in a draughty hall, sharpened pencil in hand. You can test your IQ in the comfort of your own home and let your computer do the scoring. Three short video extracts from American psychologists constitute the “multimedia” element, explaining that you shouldn’t be downhearted if your score is low because it probably doesn’t mean anything anyway. But the real intelligence test is whether you buy this disc for £19.99 from Funsoft or get a book that performs much the same service for as little as £2.99.
