100 Free Retro Flash Brain Games!
Well, it took quite a while but it's finally done! I've successfully added 100 free retro flash brain games to Memory-Improvement-Tips.com.
If you've visited my site over the years, you may remember classic brain games like Scrabble Sprint, 3D Logic, Aqua Bubble, and more. Those games had to be retired when Adobe Flash was canceled by big tech, but now they're back.
I've slowly been adding the classics to the Retro Brain Games page, and finally, I've reached the 100-game goal. You'll be pleased to hear these games have no in-game ads.
These games are playable on desktop/laptop computers. They probably won't work on mobile phones or tablets.
Also, the Retro Flash Games page might load a little slowly. That's normal. There's a lot of free content on that page!

Memory Visualization Example: Perigee
Perigee means closest approach to Earth (of the Moon, for example); apogee means furthest distance away. To not get these backward, notice that peri- sounds like "pear".
Now imagine a silly mental image of pears falling to Earth like meteors. This reminds you perigee means the closest approach to Earth.
When memorizing factual information, create silly "sound-alike" mental images as memory hooks. It's powerful!

The Return of (Some) Flash Brain Games
In an amazing turn of events, some of the old Adobe Flash brain games now work again! To play them, visit the new Ruffle Flash Games page.
Old favorites like Scrabble Sprint, Brain Follow, Emerald Thief, Curveball, Original Tetris, and more were thought to be lost forever with the demise of Adobe Flash in 2021.
But a dedicated group of volunteers has created a new, safer Flash Player called Ruffle. The Ruffle Player can run the old Adobe Flash games in your browser, just like the Adobe Flash Player once did.
You don't even need to download any plug-ins. The Ruffle games work automatically, with the Ruffle Player code running behind the scenes.
Ruffle is still under development, so only some of the old Flash games work for now. I've collected games that do run on a single page for your enjoyment.
These Ruffle Flash brain games run on desktop computers and laptops only. They probably won't work if you try to play them on a tablet or mobile phone.
If you miss the old Adobe Flash games, visit the new Ruffle Flash Games page for a trip down memory lane. Have fun!

Mental Math at the Register
To stay sharp, look for ways to exercise your brain in daily life. Mental math while you are out-and-about is a great example.
Solving math problems in your head trains quantitative intelligence (Gq). It also requires focused attention.
I play a math coin game at the store sometimes when paying for small purchases. I'll carry an assortment of small coins in my pocket for this purpose.
One such game: "Receive multiples of 25 cents in change."
Recently I bought an Americano at my local coffee shop. That's my favorite coffee drink. Splash of heavy cream and two Stevias. Total owed $2.98.
Time to pay. Not with three one dollar bills. I'd be burdened with two more pennies, and not train my brain.
Instead a mental math challenge!
I prefer the "counting down" method. It's the opposite of the counting-up method used by cashiers to make change.
Here's the thought process. Multiples of 25 cents are zero, 25, 50, and 75. For the coffee I owe 98 cents. The next-lowest multiple of 25 is therefore 75 cents.
I count down from 98, starting with pennies. Dropping from 98 to 95 is three pennies. Now I have options. I can drop 95 to 75 with two dimes or four nickels or two nickels and a dime.
I get out three one dollar bills and hand the cashier $3.23. The cash register checks my math: $3.23 - $2.98 = $0.25. I'm handed a quarter. Victory!
I'm glad to get rid of the small coins of little value, especially the pennies. It’s a good way to use up the small change I've thrown into a drawer.
Is this game trivial? No. All mental challenges are beneficial. Even small ones.
They force you to pay attention, to concentrate, to focus. And in this case, to calculate.
Consider the alternative: To passively not use your brain, as when swiping a credit card or handing over three one-dollar bills. Even a little counting-down game is a plus.
If you need practice counting coins, play the free Cash Back money counting game here on my site.
During the course of your day, look around for opportunities to challenge your brain. Be creative and have fun. Stay sharp!

Why Bother with Correct Spelling?
Some time ago, a visitor asked me why correct spelling is important. After all, misspelled words can usually still be recognized.
What difference does shifting a few letters around actually make?
The answer: Having a single accepted spelling for a word streamlines communication and prevents confusion.
Here are a few reasons why careless spelling is bad:
Misspellings can actually change the meaning of the word. These misspellings are confusing and sometime amusing.
See the image of "Sweat Tea" above. Yuck, no thank you!
Consider extreme cases where the word is unrecognizable due to the misspelling.
The reader would have to stop reading and waste time trying to figure out what the word meant. They might even fail to decipher the word altogether.
Spelling words the right way shows you are an educated person. You communicate carefully, with an eye for detail.
In contrast, poor spelling may cause the reader to wonder if your thinking and reasoning are also inexact. That you are not to be taken seriously.
So there you have it. Three great reasons to be exact with your spelling.
Take the time to memorize the correct spellings of words. It's worth it!Sep 09, 2022
Trouble Remembering Routes: Your Solutions?
A surprising number of visitors claim they have severe trouble remembering routes. They struggle to recall simple street directions. They become lost in places they've lived many years.
For such people, Google Maps and GPS are not enough. And they are frustrated. Getting lost is not fun!
Trouble with directions has been linked to ADHD and other learning disorders. Traveling a route does require memory and sustained attention. But the cause is uncertain, and there is no magic fix.
Do you suffer this problem? Please share any solutions you've found in your daily life. Send a message through my Contact Me page describing the methods you use.
Once I've gathered solutions, I'll write an article listing the most effective ideas. Learning of creative options that work for others should be very helpful to those everywhere who struggle with routes.

Retrieval Practice: A Powerful Daily Habit
Recalling facts helps strengthen memory. You can do this deliberately, as a form of memory exercise. This is known as "retrieval practice."
Choose a set of facts to practice. It can be anything. For example, I recently decided to memorize the Greek alphabet.
Use memory techniques to establish initial learning. For a few minutes every day, recall the information from memory without looking. Recite it out loud, write it down, or do both. This is active recall, also known as the testing effect.
No need to schedule time for this. I fit my recall practice into odd moments of downtime. When writing, I often use whatever is on hand, like a scrap of paper. Afterward I discard it.
Practice daily. Retrieval is a free and powerful memory booster. Give it a try!
