About these games

These are the games where guessing is a last resort rather than a strategy. A properly generated Sudoku has exactly one solution reachable by pure deduction. A Minesweeper board tells you where the mines are if you read the numbers carefully enough. Four in a Row is a fully solved game whose optimal play is known. In each case the information you need is already on screen — the work is noticing it.

The memory games take a different angle. Memory Match and Number Memory measure how much you can hold in working memory and for how long, which is a skill that responds to practice more than most people expect: encoding a card's position as words, or chunking digits into pairs, changes results immediately. Short daily sessions beat long occasional ones, and every game here tracks your best so progress is visible.
