puzzle-platform games

Puzzle-platform games are a genre that combines traditional platforming with problem-solving elements. Players control a character navigating through levels filled with obstacles, enemies, and interactive objects. The core challenge involves both quick reflexes—such as jumping and running—and mental skills like figuring out how to overcome puzzles or unlock paths. These games often emphasize creative thinking and strategy, requiring players to analyze environments and experiment with solutions. Popular examples include "Portal" and "Limbo," where the balance of physical agility and cognitive problem-solving creates engaging, multi-layered gameplay experiences.
