Brain teasers are useful to improve a person's logic and problem-solving skills as well as enhance your concentration, spatial reasoning, and even IQ.
A study conducted by the University of Michigan found that people who worked on challenging brain teasers for at least 25 minutes a day increased their IQ by up to four points. These games also work in both hemispheres of your brain - the left which controls your logical and analytical thinking and the right which is in charge of creativity. Just like a muscle, if you work out your brain regularly with brain teasers, it will be more intelligent in the long run.
