Puzzle

Puzzle Games:
• The Mechanism: Spatial, geometric, or abstract logic challenges where players must arrange physical pieces into exact patterns or grids.
• Gameplay: These games are highly cerebral and often have very little direct player conflict. You are handed spatial restrictions (like fitting odd-shaped pentomino blocks onto a grid without overlapping) and must optimize your placement to leave no empty spaces, match color patterns, or build perfect geometry.
• Example Board Games: Patchwork, Project L, Calico, Nova Luna, Sagrada
