Getting practice with Conditional Rules

What are some of the best games to practice conditional reasoning? I need practice using logic chains to answer the questions.

Hi amagari!

It's great to hear that you're choosing to practice conditional reasoning and connecting logical chains. That's certainly a skill that is important not only for games, but is also essential for doing well on arguments (and, to a lesser extent, reading comprehension). In short, conditional reasoning is everywhere on the LSAT, so it's good to drill yourself on it.

Regarding your specific question, the best type of game to practice on is the "grouping" type of games. If you have PowerScore's full-length course books, there's an in-depth discussion of this type of game, along with practice problems, starting on p. 5-7, through to 5-22. Further, there are a lot more explanations and drills for this type of game in the homework section of Lesson 5, starting at 5-74.

The grouping game drills and explanations in those sections are quite helpful for building practice with logic chains, as well as other important skills like contrapositives and common inferences for grouping games.
