 Some say computers will one day prove to be the ultimate
thinkers. But as of yet the only system that can tackle an almost
infinite range of problems is the amazing human brain. Here's a
chance to put yours to the test. These mazes, crosswords, visual
challenges, word puzzles, and brain-twisting teasers provide a
feast of fun and a great way to keep your thinker in tiptop form.

Try the easier puzzles (one star) first, and then progress to the
harder games (two and three stars). You’ll find the answers
starting on page 48. But resist the temptation to peek in advance.
Instead, look for the solutions in the back of your brain—with a
bit of patience, you'll find them there!

Now put on your thinking cap and get ready to tickle that gray
matter.

You can find hundreds more puzzles in The Reader’s Digest Book of
Puzzles & Brain Teasers. To order, call 1-800-846-2100.

An octagon. Each shape has
the same number of sides as
the sum of the sides of the
two shapes below it. If the
number is over 10, then the
last digit is used instead. For
example, 9 + 8 = 17 so the
brick above is 7-sided. The top
shape is an 8-sided octagon
because there are two 4-sided
shapes below it.
