What is a "puzzle video game"?
A puzzle video game is a type of game that challenges players to solve problems or complete tasks that require logic, pattern recognition, or critical thinking. These games can involve tasks like arranging objects, solving riddles, or figuring out sequences. Puzzle games became popular in the 1980s and have since become a common genre in both casual and mobile gaming. Players must think carefully to find the best solution to each challenge, and the difficulty often increases as the game progresses. Success depends on a player's ability to think creatively and solve problems under pressure.
