My parents like fairly straight-forward to operate puzzle games (as in they want to be challenged by the puzzle, not the controls) on the PC and would like some more. For an example, I had an old copy of Smart Games that I once played with my Windows 3.1 computer, set it up on their current computer (Windows XP), and they played through them all. I don't think they'd play something like Portal or a Sims game, but something that would keep their problem solving skills going would be great. I've even thought about a Nintendo DS with Brain Age, but I don't think they'd mess with it, and I'm concerned how the software might deliver criticism.
