Games for the Brain

I usually like finding and posting links to fun web-based games, but a quick look back over my posts tells me it's been about three weeks since I did anything like that. It's been a long, serious period for me, so I think it's time for a change.

First up, if you need some justification to play, an interesting article I read about how games make you smarter: Civilisation Watch - Brain Training.

If you're more like me (ie. you know you need and deserve a break, so you don't need any justification), you can probably skip that and move on to Games for the Brain.

This is a great site, there are almost thirty fun and simple to play games on the site, based around themes like attention to detail, memory, and math. Most of them don't even look like games, so a casual observer would never know any better.
