This study examined the cognitive benefits of regular logical game play by comparing long-term memory performance and self-efficacy levels between experienced players who regularly play logic games and the general population. The research employed a quantitative approach with N = 60 participants, equally divided into a regular playing group (N = 30), who regularly play logic games and a general population comparison group (N = 30). Data collection involved both a production experiment to assess long-term memory capabilities and standardized self-efficacy measurement using the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES). Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference (p = 0.000) favoring the logic game players in terms of long-term memory performance, while no significant differences emerged between groups regarding self-efficacy levels. These findings suggest that incorporating logic games into educational frameworks as play-based learning, or utilizing it as a preventive intervention against cognitive impairment in adults, offers measurable cognitive benefits and supports healthy aging initiatives.
