Puzzle
Further information: Puzzle video gamePuzzle games consist primarily of solving some form of puzzle. This may involve placing blocks into a form in specified patterns, like Tetris, or any of a number of other challenges. The player may need to perform actions in a specified time limit, or may have unlimited time to act, and the game mechanics may allow for multiple players, but the main focus is solving the puzzle. For games that balance puzzle elements with platform elements (like Lemmings or The Lost Vikings), look for the puzzle sub-genre under Platform games.

Famous quotes containing the word puzzle:
“Scholars and artists thrown together are often annoyed at the puzzle of where they differ. Both work from knowledge; but I suspect they differ most importantly in the way their knowledge is come by. Scholars get theirs with conscientious thoroughness along projected lines of logic; poets theirs cavalierly and as it happens in and out of books. They stick to nothing deliberately, but let what will stick to them like burrs where they walk in the fields.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Waiting for the race to become official, he began to feel as if he had as much effect on the final outcome of the operation as a single piece of a jumbo jigsaw puzzle has to its predetermined final design. Only the addition of the missing fragments of the puzzle would reveal if the picture was as he guessed it would be.”
—Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
“The at present unutterable things we may find somewhere uttered. These same questions that disturb and puzzle and confound us have in their turn occurred to all the wise men; not one has been omitted; and each has answered them, according to his ability, by his words and his life.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
