Today I discovered Lumocity which is a well developed site to improve "brain power" like:

  • memory
  • attention
  • creativity

Is this the best site of its kind? Are there any other recommended tools to improve our ability to remember and solve problems?

Welcome. Recommendation or shopping list questions are generally discouraged on SE sites (e.g. gaming because they're not a good fit for the Q&A format. Our meta has a discussion about recommendations, which although infant offers good guidance. Please try re-phrasing your question along the lines of a guide: how to pick, not what to pick. – Adam Wuerl♦ Mar 29 '12 at 11:57

A lot of the brain power comes by repetition. I am a Lumosity user for quite some time and in my opinion it is one of the best. However it's only effective if you keep training your brain on a regular basis. I tried some other apps and stuff, also on my Android, but Lumosity to me is the most fun, motivating and it has some nice graphs & tools for analysis.
