Microsoft has revealed two new titles that will be available this week on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Experience the first mind exercise game available on Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 with Gameloft’s “Brain Challenge” and harness the power of the wind to conquer levels in Codemasters’ “Bliss Island,” an updated version of the popular Windows Vista puzzler.

“Brain Challenge” has something for everyone including Daily Test Mode, where players undergo a series of brain exercises and Stress Mode, which tests player’s abilities to stay calm under stress. For those looking for a relaxing experience, Creative Mode allows players to relax and explore their imagination and Child Test lets players play & share their exercises with younger people.

The second title allows players to explore “Bliss Island” as Hoshi the Zwooph, a mystical blue creature that emits precise puffs of air to create clouds. Help Hoshi become the Bliss Island champion by winning over 25 unique challenges across nine intense levels. Both games will be available on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace this Wednesday for 800 MS Points each.
