Do you believe these brain training gizmos work?

Good morning C
I think they do.I bought my daughter the maths one for her Nintendo and I did see a difference—she was certainly quicker after doing it for a while.
I love playing them on the Nintendo cos i like puzzles and crosswords etc–whether they are making a difference to my brain [...]
