Benefits of playing trivia and quiz games
Unfortunately every year we grow a bit older and we realize that our mind is not as sharp and fast as it used to be. If we don’t train our brain, it gets harder for us to remember, concentrate and learn new skills and information.
Happiness and emotions
Answering trivia questions (and especially answering them correctly) can make us very happy. Friendly competitiveness can enhance our mood, increase our ego and make us feel good in general. When we win we experience a sense of satisfaction and we release hormones that make our brain feel good. Apart from having fun and learning new things, you will be making your brain more powerful!
