Mind Video games #1: Decrease Your Mind Age in Minutes a Day (Quantity 1)

Great way to unplug
I recently turned 30 – and I think now is a good time to start exercising my mind more.This book is great for that – has a great variety of games and puzzles that really get you thinking. I actually learned how to play sudoku for the first time with this book!After spending 20 mins with this book, I feel like I had a light workout. Gives me a great break from social media.The level of difficulty ranges throughout the book, so there are definitely some challenges in here too, and if you really can’t figure something out, all the answers are in the back.I’ve been bringing it everywhere with me so it’s doggie-eared now, but I ordered it brand new and it arrived in perfect condition.

Pretty good
I purchased this book to keep my father busy and his mind aharp.

Excellent Variety
I love this book! There is such a huge variety of puzzles, make sure to read the instructions all the way through or you’ll end up like me needing more eraser than pencil lol. Will definitely be buying the next volumes!

multifaceted workout for the brain
Grab a pencil (with an eraser)- I like sticking a mechanical pencil into the spiral for safe keeping. I keep a binder clip and a sticky note pad with this spiral bound book. I use the pencil so I can make adjustments as I work through a puzzle. I use the binder clip to hold my page and to keep the sticky note pad with the book. I use the sticky note pad for additional spot to work a problem, to take a note, or to use a sheet to bookmark some other page. Plan to get actively involved with this book. That being said,This is a great book to have on hand to give your brain a workout.It begins with an informative read on brain fitness, and how to protect and enhance it. It talks about the different ways to engage the brain and to stretch it and give it a good work out.Next section provides a way to “assess your brain” which is a quick questionnaire to help you to figure out how your mind works before even beginning this puzzle book.The remainder of book includes a whole host of challenges, from easy warm ups to more difficult activities. You will find Mazes, Cryptograms, Sudoku, Cross Word, Drawing, Word ladders, Search a Word, and others that I don’t know what to call them, other than they are interesting and challenging.These puzzles address areas of thinking such as: Logic, Language, Planning, Attention, Visual Search, Analysis, Spacial Reasoning, General Knowledge, Creative Thinking, Memory, and Computation. Each puzzle lets you know what areas it is addressing.There book is organized into 5 levels. Level 1 includes warm up activities like easy mazes, but I found some of the puzzles within that one to be challenging, and some of the higher level puzzles to be kinda easy. So I think one could start wherever they want in the book, and do whatever looks interesting in that moment. There will be some that will stump you, and some that you will fly through. It will depend on how you tend to think and how you might need to be challenged.In total, there are 168 puzzles in total, with complete answers available in the back of the book.It is a nice book to carry as it isn’t too big (roughly 9.5″ x 7.5″ x .75″). The spiral bound book is easy to handle, and works great as a pencil holder.

Great puzzle book, great work out for the mind

Great book

Lo amé, trae muy buenos ejercicios. Lo único es que si no dominas el idioma (está en inglés) algunas actividades puede resultar difíciles, sin embargo esto es muy bueno para el vocabulario 😊
