Tile Matching Puzzles
- The Lagoon: You need to move your marker from one area of the board to the other side by making matches of three or more tiles. By making matches in the right position and orientation, the marker will be moved along as the playing field fills in the resulting gaps.
- The Beach: In this game, certain matches (based on tiles and orientation) will move you along an area map. You need to make it to the opposite side of the map.
- Fruitopia: A tile matching game where fruit falls from the top of the puzzle and you can only move tiles from the top of a column to the top of another column.
- Strange Wind: In this game you slide entire rows or columns instead of selecting individual tiles.
- Navigation: The layout of this puzzle is circular instead of a rectangular grid. Its the difference between polar and Cartesian coordinate systems. At some levels, some of the connectors will be missing, which will prevent matches between those locations.
Path Creating/Discovery Puzzles
- Climbing Vines: Rotate tiles to form vine paths that link the ground to the top of the tree.
- Quicksand: A mixture of a mine sweeper game and a maze. The object here is not to find all the sinkholes (mines) but to safely find your way across this stretch of beach without stepping on sinkhole.
Pure Logic Puzzles
- Precarious Path: This is a nonogram or griddler puzzle, sometimes called painting by numbers. In this case there are no pictures just a great logic game. If you like soduko you'll like nanograms. At the easiest level this is almost trivial, but you need to solve a couple of trivial puzzles to get the point of the puzzle.
- Elemental Code: Based on the mind bender puzzle. At the higher difficulty settings you not only need to deduce the symbols but also the color of the symbols. That will get you thinking!
- Laser Light: Based on the Black Box board game. By studying the behavior of beams of light shot in a box, can you surmise the location of the objects inside?
- Crystal Matrix: A great version of sudoku that doesn't use any numbers!
- Curious Cavern: Unlike the others, this game is one in which the puzzle is figuring out what the puzzle is and how to go about it. If you can figure that out, the actual walking out of the solution is the easy part.
