Puzzle games

Zanthia · 08-25-2008, 11:44 AM

Lately I found myself playing more puzzle games, than adventures. They are not very time consuming and could be put aside easily. I can recommend Dream Chronicles 1 and 2, The secret of the Unicorn Castle and Puzzle Hero.
Does anyone else like puzzle games?

When I run Ubuntu and watch films on that I tend to open up this tetris clone to play along. Other then that I don't really take puzzle games very seriously, for me they are just time killers.

I like puzzle games a lot and I'm reasonably good at them. I just don't particularly like designing them.

Tetris is classics. I hope its the erotic one.

All games are timekillers

Portal, Braid and Fish Fillets are the only games I've played and they're all superb.

I just came along Azada: ancient Magic. Don't know how is it yet, but looks promising

I love PJ's Jigsaws, and have played over 400 of them now. They are a great stress reliever.

Looking at titles mentioned above I should be able to add Lumines and Pussle Quest. If you like Tetris you really should try Lumines (1 or 2). It blends light, music and pussle gameplay marvelously.

I played the free 30min download of this game, I thought it was pretty good, I also played the 30min free download of Dream Chroniciles, it was good too. I have to admit I like the hidden object puzzle games too Mystery Case Files: Ravenhearst also Escape the Museum was interesting.

I played an hour of Azada and I tend to agree. Fine mix of puzzle-adventure. As for hidden objects, I don't really like them, especially when timed.

My resent recommendation: musaic box
the only minus: too short

Are you downloading these games from BigFish? I like their Adventure section they have some great games in there.

Yes, I am subscribed to their news.
Redrum sounds promising, sanitarium style, but I didn't play it yet.
