MEASURE YOUR MIND. TRAIN WHERE IT IS WEAK. PuzzleVerse is not just a pile of puzzle games. Every round you play is scored, and that score tells you where your thinking is strong and where it is not. BRAIN SCORE — SIX ABILITIES, MEASURED DAILY Each game measures something different. Finish a round and your Brain Score updates across six dimensions: • Logic — deduction, elimination, constraints • Spatial — rotation, routing, packing • Memory — positions, sequences, faces of cards • Attention — holding focus, resisting distraction • Speed — reaction and fast decisions • Calculation — mental arithmetic under time pressure A radar chart shows the shape of your mind, against yesterday and against players worldwide. TODAY'S WORKOUT — PICKED FROM YOUR WEAKEST SIDE Five exercises a day, weighted towards the dimension you are weakest in. Not a random shuffle: it reads your own measurements. Each one runs 1–8 minutes, and says how long before you start.
