Running a good puzzle session

  • No clocks, no pressure. Research with older adults consistently finds time limits cause stress — let everyone work at their own pace.
  • Do it together. Solving with a partner or around a table is the single most enjoyed part of game sessions in studies of older players — pairs beat solo.
  • Keep the answer key handy, not hidden. A gentle nudge from the key keeps a stuck puzzle encouraging instead of frustrating.
