Based on the game, they can enhance strategic thinking, quick mental reaction, and hand eye coordination.
Better yet, CAD (Computer-Aided Design). Take a few classes, watch a few tutorials, buy a reasonably priced 3D CAD solid modeling application and starting with simple geometric shapes, learn your way around enough so that you’ll be able to assemble groups of parts and/or pieces to build something cool in your virtual 3D CAD workspace.
I play a game called The Operational Art of War every day. It’s a strategy game much like Avalon Hill’s 3rd Reich or Russian Campaign/War In Russia

Neuroplasticity is a powerful brain feature.
I recently began learning and experimenting with a program called GarageBand. It allows the user to compose tunes using all kinds of instruments and sounds, then save them if you like them and play them back.
I started with the program about 4 weeks ago, i spend about 2 hours a day making music (I am not very good at it though), but its very enjpyable.
I have noticed some REALLY noticeable improvements in my neurological functioning in that time and so I would highly recommend it any older people (I’m 60) give it a try. In fact, the difference was so noticeable that I actually felt a bit worried over the change, thinking it may indicate some brain tumor or something like that (then I just said to hell with that little bit of worry, I’m just going to enjoy this new feeling).
So what exactly are the improvements? I feel much happier than I did before. I was not really depressed, maybe just a bit sad, but now I want to chat with strangers more, I want to exercise more, and I get a happy urge to dance which rarely happened before. I feel sexy again too (I know, I know, TMI. . .)Also I am feeling much less inhibited than ever, and want to open up and converse more. Yesterday while walking through the park there was a festival that had a band playing, and shy me had a strong urge (I didn’t do it tho) to just head over there and dance. It was, quite frankly, bizarre, something I haven’t done since i was 20.
So I just wanted to share that experience in case some of you want to try it. I hope it will help others too. GarageBand clears the cobwebs out.
