Ultimate Brain Games is an unreleased board video game that was in development by Teque London and planned to be published by Telegames on a scheduled Q2 1995 release date exclusively for the Atari Jaguar.[1] The game was going to be a spiritual successor to Fidelity Electronics and Telegames's 1991 Atari Lynx title The Fidelity Ultimate Chess Challenge.[2] It was also intended to be released the Atari Jaguar CD add-on and later on the PC.[3]

Featuring three different board games that heavily involves the use of thought, players compete against either computer-controlled or another human player in order to be the victor of the match. Ultimate Brain Games was first announced prior to the launch of the Jaguar in 1993, when Telegames became one of the first developers for it. It was listed, mentioned and previewed across several publications between 1994 and 1995, before it was eventually left unreleased due to the lack of success of the platform.

Despite Ultimate Brain Games never receiving an official release to the general public by Telegames, a ROM image of the game was leaked online in 2008 by a former Teque London employee, making it the only playable build of the title to be made available as of date.
