I am looking for fun and helpful math games to play in my free time.

Most math games resort too much to calculation and are not actually helpful in other areas of intelligence - such as logical thinking, defining, relating etc.

Any recommendations?

This may be off-topic, but John Conway´s Game of Life is pretty interesting and pretty deep to analyze – omega-stable May 28 '17 at 03:53
@I.Padilla I had concerned with its off-topicness. If the majority evaluates it as off-topic, will delete the OP. – Daschin May 28 '17 at 04:01
You'd have to give us a sense of what level of math you want to discuss – Thomas Andrews May 28 '17 at 04:26
@ThomasAndrews at least undergraduate level of mathematics – Daschin May 28 '17 at 04:35

May I suggest Kal'toh. Seriously now, an example of what you'd consider a fun and/or useful math game would help, even if it's not the most of either. – dxiv May 28 '17 at 04:40

@Daschin I don't think this site is supposed to be for discussion, maybe you can try other sites such as Quora? – Toby Mak May 28 '17 at 05:07
I guess math itself is the most challenging of math games – Exit path May 28 '17 at 05:08
@Daschin See maybe this and that for some pointers. – dxiv May 28 '17 at 05:09
