My son downloaded the game "Bejeweled 2" onto my computer. Now.....I am addicted to playing this game. I try to convince myself that it's helping me with my cognitive skills....and I think it probably is.....but I just cannot seem to get enough of this game!

Anyone else play this....or other games....and find yourself somewhat addicted?!

I am. I have it on my cell phone and play it whenever I'm stuck in traffic (a lot) or waiting on something. I used to read and always carried a book with me, but now I just numb my mind, I mean strengthen my cognitive skills.

you got me Kelly. I just went to bejeweled 2 and played for 20 minutes.
I can see it being addicting. thanks for the suggestion.lol

I've never played Bejowelled but it sounds really fun!

I will admit, I AM addicted to the games on my cell phone lol. I have the Apple I-Phone and it has a really cool bowling game where you have to move your phone and in your arm to give the affect that you are playing proper bowling! It is really cool and I always have to try and beat my highest score lol.

My 5 year old cousion also plays little kiddies games on the computer and I sometimes play them with her if I am at her house or my nanans. When I get home, I am always on about them or playing them - everyone laughs at me because i'm 13 and like playing little childrens games but I love it lol.

Have fun playing your games!

Busted Kell! I haven't played Bejeweled yet, but I bought Scrabble and am addicted to that. I also bought another game set that has slots, Bejeweled and boasts 155,000 games, but I've yet to try Bejeweled.

Oh, and I'm addicted to Spider Solitaire right now. I do think it's good to keep the mind active. Between my pc games and my soap opera, I'm ready to write the 2nd Gettysburg Address.

I like Spider Solitaire, too. I haven't played it in a while so I should probably mix the games up a bit!

LOL, my dirty little secret, I'm a Bejeweled addict too. It's my favorite way to wind down before bed, it takes me directly into the zone. I especially like that it's not a timed game, kind of mindless, and pretty to look at.

Get "Burning Monkey Solitaire". That game is really addictive...more than Bejeweled! (I have that game too)

I agree Twink~ I'm never sure what sites are safe, so I bought my games at Walmart, Best Buy and don't have to worry about downloading them. The one w/155,000 games was only $9.99 and according to the slots games, they owe me $107,000. Wonder if the checks' in the mail??

I used to go to Pogo and really liked it, but it won't let you go to a higher level of the games, unless you join for their fee. When my DH asks me WHAT I'm playing now, I just tell him I'm enriching my mind!!

Good answer to husband - I'll be using that one !!!!
