Gameplay
Players compete against each other in a series of edutainment-orientated minigames led by the titular drill instructor. These minigames include shooting numbers to complete a math problem or swinging the Wii Remote in rhythm to a march.
If players make mistakes during each minigame, it increases the anger level of the drill sergeant. Players who make four mistakes will then be forced to complete a separate "punishment" minigame before they can continue. Extra points are given for successive correct answers, and after each round each player is given a "brain power rank" based on their performance ranging from Private to Field Marshal.
Reception
Nintendo Life thought the game had a few interesting ideas, but were put off by the simplistic gameplay and mediocre presentation. Wiiloveit.com praised the "more competitive nature", making it stand out from other brain training games. The reviewer felt there should've been more activities, and was also slightly put off by the "gloomy" presentation, but still found it to be a "moderately-fun party game".
