So there's a singular book on this topic I've seen mentioned elsewhere

but it's an independent idea that's popped in to my head related to the other post about daydreaming (and I haven't read the book)

about "games" or playful things you can do in your head; it's interesting to me the ways in which your head cannot duplicate games, like how video games might keep score automatically (I think I would struggle to remember all kinds of scores and points)

Essentially the book referenced elsewhere sounds like they give you a topic and you kind of make up a story from it in your head; like a solo roleplaying game?

I find my "mindgames" are more of a "freestyle" without necessarily a narrative: [take the random science] name "blue dwarf" [which] might remind me of "green leprechauns" which then makes me think of "green dwarves" (which are nonexistent stars I think, no "green dwarf" stars exist?). This isn't necessarily the best example, but my "mind wandering" I often try to direct towards something practical, like maybe building something new that could be used for a practical purpose. Maybe even "green dwarves" could be a title used for some other project. Well, looking up "green dwarf" on a search engine gave me this article, whatever it means, but in any event these ideas kind of freely bounce off each other and sometimes combine in some useful or interesting way (at least to me); perhaps this process really needs no description and is obvious (but I'm not sure how many people make use of it): https://www.scientificamerican.com/blog/observations/in-search-of-green-dwarfs/

I saw some other games that people liked to play, like coming up with some noun for each letter of the alphabet a-z in order; this is something different than the story or freestyle ideas, but I guess you could spin off stories or free associations from the letters.

This is just a sampling of the kinds of games one might play in the mind...

has anyone thought of games they can play in the head, or have favorites or tips on this kind of "gaming platform"?

Organizes and lists the different subjects or fields of math

Note: I think I've posted this somewhere before and two pieces of feedback were that some words may have been wrong or out of context (some frequently occurring "words" aren't necessarily learned apart from certain uses), and that perhaps "immersion" or just trying to speak the language or otherwise that there were possibly better ways to learn a language in their view. That being said, one suggested path to learning languages has been to learn some of the most frequently used words in the languages.

Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) around the world. Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant — the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159. Pi Day is an annual opportunity for math enthusiasts to recite the infinite digits of Pi, talk to their friends about math, and eat pie.

Note that I may not agree with the content of various games, but there are a lot of potential games to review

I found this concept of "1D games" interesting, originally linked from Hackaday
