I love jigsaw puzzles, word searches and Othello

I'm not much for mobile games, but grid based puzzle games with an accompanying narrative are always fun, I'm also a big fan of JRPGs.

I am an avid Board game player and Eurogames are my favorite which often are very puzzly. I find them to be great exercise for your brain and loads of fun.

I enjoy playing video games, puzzles, and Sudoku. Making my brain work makes real work better and easier.

I get my share of puzzles on a daily basis as a software engineer:

• Why does this work on my test setup but doesn't work in the customer's environment? What's different, and why does it matter?
• What can we do to process this conversion faster? It's already the fastest in the industry.
• How on Earth did this ever work? It's the worst piece of programming I have ever seen, and I WROTE IT!!!

I enjoy a brain teaser or other puzzle now and then, but usually my brain is pretty well burnt from work-related puzzles.

BTW, that is one of the reasons I love what I do!

Crossword puzzles, trivia games. Last night I participated in a drinking game with trivia questions. Think I won.

I'm a huge fan of word searches or things where you have to find items in a large picture.

Rummikub! Pitch! Jigsaw puzzles on line....so fabulous, no missing pieces or big table in the way! And free!

Yes, definitely! Sudoku is my solitary activity preference. Never do crosswords. I like math puzzles a lot also. Example: Can you fill a 1ft x 1ft x 1ft box with 2" x 4" x 8" bricks without breaking any of the bricks? If so, how. If not, prove it.

Scrabble?

I like to take super-challenging cognitive assessment tests like the one President Trump aced the other day. One day I, too, will correctly identify an illustration of a lion.

I like video games that have complex builds, intricate lore, and play to a mostly homemade strategy aside from quest parameters.

Cards Against Humanity is my favorite game.

I have sudoku on my phone and use it mostly at night to send myself to sleep....

I like crossword puzzles, chess, mahjong, backgammon, scrabble and some others

I think we've been down this road before. I like e-solitaire. I have found tricks that can be used for when playing with cards. One can fudge and if you don't win can play over and redo some things. I now win some 75% of the time.

I also do crosswords. I look for the medium difficulty so I can add extra strategies: in ink, backwards, left-handed and, when possible, go from one corner to the opposite one with as few words as possible.

My late partner once asked me to teach her checkers. I won the first two games and then it was all over. She beat me every time. She then asked me to teach her to play chess. No way, I needed to at least keep some of my dignity!

Does backgammon count?????

I do crossword puzzles, not the super brainy Sunday New York Times puzzles, but the progressively harder ones in large puzzle books, like the Simon and Schuster ones. It is sometimes fascinating to see how one's mind works when, for example, you come up with a word, name, etc., that you haven't used or remembered hearing for years, or even decades. Or, to figure out an answer by some obscure or seemingly unrelated clue.

Crosswords, Words with friends

NSA Crypto Challenge is my crack du jour.

Simon Shuker's code cracker is my favorite but I can only rarely find them.

Writing rhymed and metered poems is like a puzzle...kinda like a crossword--more freedom but also more work.

Naw.... my rv is complicated enough. Then there's my wifey. She complicated too. She gets mad at me and it's all day walking all around me and saying nothing. ...lol. she's a trip!

I do the newspaper crossword every day.

I love playing along while watching jeopardy.

Yup! Crosswords, sudoku (in the past), Scrabble, Jeopardy! and Balderdash (the board game). Even Bananagrams! Besides sukoku, I'm seeing a word/spelling pattern here.

One of my best friends travels a lot with his job, and is always bringing home cool games to play with his friends and family. It's through him that the kids and I were first exposed to Dixit, Gloom, Exploding Cows, and several others (whose names are french so we had to play with his wife acting as an interpreter). Usually, I like to jump right in so we can learn to play; I digest the rules better that way.

Crosswords...love it...
