Hey,

Last year I bought my mother a DS Lite, and it has been probably the best present I've ever bought her, somewhat surprisingly she hasn't stopped playing it all year.

Now she wants some more games for it for Christmas. She started with Brain Training for a few months (doing the Sudoko puzzles over and over again), then bought a Sudoko game, but found it hard to see the little numbers. The past few months she has been addicted to Scrabble.

What good puzzle games would you recommend that I buy her now? Needs to be nice and simple to operate, but quite challenging too (i.e. not aimed at kids).

Any advice greatly received.

Picross is fantastic and has it's simlarities to Sudoku so should be a sure fire hit with your mother I would think, hugely addivitive and rewarding little game to play.

Pic Pic seems to be along similar lines to Picross so that might be worth a look aswell.

Oh, and my missus still loves Zoo Keeper which is a match 3 or more bejewled type game, again super addictive!

If she liked Brain Training then you can't go wrong with More Brain Training, which has different "games" and more sudoku puzzles. Have you considered 42 All Time Classics? There are plenty of card games and chess etc.

My wife found the same thing .. .. .. .. she hated all of the other Sudoku games after playing the Brain Training version.
