Now, some of these games require more skill than others. That is the case with the first game on the list...

World of Warcraft
WoW or world of warcraft, is a very popular multiplayer online game. Over 10 million people are playing it every month. The game sets out in a fantasy world, much like lord of the rings. Here you will complete quests, fight large creatures, and collect powerful magical items. This game will improve your decision speed and ability to communicate with other people. This game is also great if you want to build your problem solving abilities. Now a lot of people thinks that this game is just for younger players, but that is not true. My mother is playing it and she's 55. A little warning though, this game is pretty addictive and you could easily spend hours upon hours on this game.

3d Logic
This was the 3d cube game that I got stuck with for quite a while. It was very fun and you really had to think in order to solve the puzzles. I managed to get to level 19 at the time writing this. It's getting harder now, but I haven't given up =).

The works like this: You are given a 3d cube with different colored dots on. Your job is to connect the colored dots without crossing two color lines. You start at level 1 and then work your way up. I could easily sit for hours with these kind of games, and that's what I'm going to do now!
