Don't beleive that it makes a measurable differene just makes your brain completet repetitive tasks giving the impression that you are getting better - same as playing games, the more theat you play, the better you normally get

the brain is efficient as possible and therefore works on the "if you don't use it, you lose it" principle. These games help you keep logical principles strong and intact if you don't readily exercise them.

I don't think they really make you smarter, but they certainly do increase how fast your brain can proccess, understand, and answer questions after playing it for awhile.

They might help you get a bit smarter but you're not gonna become a genius from playing them.

I think you just get use to the stupid little "game". The more practice you do in anything the better you get i highly doubt playing a song on a fake piano makes me any smarter.

I don't think it actually makes you Smarter, but it expands your brain's capacity to think faster.

The games are usually based on classical puzzles such as picture-matching, finding differences, jigsaws, etc. The more you do them, the faster you'll perform at those games. I doubt they boost intelligence, though.

people that think quickly tend to be smarter... more thoughts processed per second and all... faster at memorizing things... that can't be a bad thing...
