chess is like any other stimulant to your brain and forces more activity to be done. Chess doesn't take concentration, i 'd think a rubik's cube would and the age of a person would matter also. I would think kids have less activity in the brain when doing activities that require concentration because their brains are used to seeing patterns.

The skills chess offers to those who play it are gold mines. It teaches the faithful players how to approach life. It teaches people that are having dilemmas that here is more than one answer to a problem. While your adversary is looking at the issue through a single point, you as the great chess player that you are, can take a step back and look at the picture through many points.'' Sultan Yusufzai [45]
It helps improve logical thinking skills and mathematical skills. It also helps develop visualization skills because you must form a mental image of the board with move advances to evaluate a situation that may occur. This is called "look ahead" and expert players can look ahead many moves.

Chess does good to your brain. It makes you think ahead of the player. So I have heard it makes you think harder.
