Play this chess game against the computer. Chess is a wonderful activity for improving concentration, which aids memory.

To begin, click Small, Medium, or Large above to open the game in a pop-up window.

According to James Burton, the author of this game, Easy Chess is meant for chess beginners only. That means that most of us actually have a chance to win a game or two against the computer!

FOR BEST RESULTS:  Chess is a lot of fun, but it is limited. To really improve your brain, join the Lumosity brain training service. I use Lumosity every day, and it works.

WHAT IT IS.  Lumosity has scientifically designed games that increase brain power. Each game trains a different skill such as memory, concentration, or mental speed. You play the games online in your browser.

A Lumosity session takes about 15 minutes per day. It is an effective, enjoyable way to keep your brain sharp.

Included free are customized brain training "courses" that boost core brain function (memory, attention, etc.) and peak performance (fluid intelligence, advanced memory). Other free, included courses are designed specifically for students and even medical conditions (ADHD, TBI, cancer recovery).

TRY FREE FOR TWO WEEKS.  Subscriptions to Lumosity cost about $7 per month. The first two weeks of the subscription is free but does require a credit card to limit free trials to one person.

Give Lumosity a try for a week. Many people say it has changed their lives. Lumosity just might be right for you! If for some reason it's not, cancel during the free trial and it won't cost you anything.
