The article sounds like an ad, and 2 out of 3 games listed doesn't sound like anything new.

That being said, I think what is being said is that these 3 mechanics in the games are particulary suited to improve your brain activities.

The 3rd game is reimplementation of one of the games that is proved to improve your cognitive abilities - and I'm sorry, I cannot remember the name - which was about forcing your brain to work on disonnanced tasks.

What he actually said is that for these games the effect on cognitive skills was measured, which has not been done for other games. It may quite well be the case that many other games have the same or even a stronger effect, but it hasn't been measured yet.
