About the original 1000 PlayThinks,Will Shortz of The New York Times said it best: The most wide-ranging, visually appealing, entertaining, gigantic collection of brainteasers since Sam Loyds Cyclopedia of Puzzles almost a century ago. Inside The Big Book of Brain Games, you will find an obsessive collection of 1,000 challenges, puzzles, riddles, illusionsoriginals as well as must-do classicsits like salted peanuts for the brain. With jampacked pages and a full-color illustration for each entry, the book, opened anywhere, is a call to action. (And its guaranteed to make you smarter.) Twelve basic categories include Geometry, Patterns, Numbers, Logic and Probability, and Perception. An easy-to-read key at the top of each game ranks its difficulty on a scale of 1 to 10, while indices in the back cross-reference the puzzles. (Youll find the answers back there, too.)
