Sometimes I want to play a quick game to take a mental break from my real world. I used to play solitaire for 10 minutes or so, and then I tried my hand at Mahjong. Now I found a cool word game called Bookworm. It is like Scrabble in that you use tiles with letters to make words. But it is a single player game and it really does exercise the brain. I used to be happy to get a high score of 100,000 before losing a round, but now I regularly top 1,000,000 and the same game can go one for weeks at a time – I just play for 10 or 12 minutes and save the current game. Then, when I have another quick break, I pick up from where I left off and play for a while, save it, and so on.
