I love puzzles. They occupy my brain, which is normally in overdrive at all points of the day. Any form of competition-based activity that involves some sort of solution requiring some abstract and logical thinking will do. This can range between crossword puzzles, sudoku, acrostics, scrabble, cranium, darts, pool, golf, or balderdash. I have yet to meet someone who can last longer finding enjoyment while doing puzzles or playing games.
Honestly, I'm not sure I understand people who don't like playing games and doing puzzles. It stimulates your brain and provides healthy competition between people. I'd even go so far as to say that puzzles and games are even better than sports in the competition department. Since you can actually talk to your opponents and teammates about things other than the game you are playing while you are playing (try doing that in the middle of a basketball game) and because its usually not as cutthroat. If you lose a chess game, it isn't that big of a deal. When someone loses a baseball game most people will be a little more upset than if they lose a game of darts.
