I usually love puzzle games, but for some reason I hate Suduko. I thought I would love it, but I tried it several times in several different books/newspapers, and each time I just didn't have any fun.

I do like fill-ins puzzles. They are sort of like crosswords, but instead of getting a clue and having to figure out the word, they give you the word and you just have to find where it goes on the puzzle. It sounds easy, and some of them are easy, but others are tough and you sit there counting letters and spaces just to try to figure out where the first word goes.

For computer games, I like a game called Zuma, and also the Mystery Case Files games (there are 2 of them, Huntsville was first, and Prime Suspects was the second). I think I got all of them from Reflexive games (free download, free 60 minute trial, then if you like it you can buy it).

Other favorite computer games of mine are Insanaquarium, Chuzzle, Bookworm, 7 Wonders, Brickshooter Egypt, and Ricochet. I get all my games from Reflexive or PopCap (in case anyone is wondering where to find these games).

Oh, I'm going to look some of those up!!! Thank you.

I like sudoku because it's "light repetition". While caring for my nephew and my online responsibilities, home, etc., I don't have to focus too hard, but just hard enough to "relax". I've always used puzzles and the such with low concentration/focus/repetition to try to focus myself and relax.

I can't wait to google some that you listed! Thanks.
