If life were as straightforward as a Rubik’s Cube, Bram Cohen could unravel it in about 90 seconds.
He can solve two Sudoko brainteasers during his 30-minute ferry commute. And he has earned a high score of 320 on Tringo, a combination of Tetris and Bingo.
Other puzzles aren’t so easy to crack.
Relating to people can be difficult for Cohen, who has Asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism that affects social skills. Unlike Sudoko or a Rubik’s Cube, people don’t always follow the same patterns.
