Brainteasers, arranged in order of difficulty, train the mind and provide a good time all at once. The most complex bafflers include chess, logic, and spatial puzzles.

If we call the pigs cows, how many cows will he have? � Which three boys' names are anagrams of one another? Answers: 1. Ten cows. We can call the pigs cows, but that doesn't make them cows. 2. Arnold, Roland, and Ronald.
