Features: The most compelling extracurricular reading material in the world today. Suitable for elementary school students, middle school students, college students, adults, and thoughtful people. The inspiration for these mind games comes from a geometric game in a Japanese temple, which has been popular in Japan for three centuries, enjoyed by both high-ranking officials and common people. Why are the Japanese so smart? Americans suddenly realized that thinking is about playing, and the unyielding Chinese must read it. A book full of wisdom and challenges, popular worldwide, featuring 1,000 mind games that smart people around the world are doing. The games simulate almost all real-life conditions, desires, and structures through models. Why do games (such as the market game, survival game, dating game) become important symbols in our lives? The answer is obvious: the players. While thinking about winning, they also know they might lose. If you find these questions simple, congratulations, but remember: the facts themselves don’t prove you’re smart—they only show that your mind is very well suited to solving these problems.
