Specifically created to cross-train the brain, this title is a mix of challenges, riddles, and brainteasers - all vetted by a neuroscientist who specializes in aging brains and designed to work in areas of cognitive function that are normal aging: long-term memory, executive functioning, and processing speed.
Cross-train your brain. All it takes is ten to fifteen minutes a day of playing the right games. (It’s fun.)
