| | Puzzle |
 | | A children's puzzle that was popular 30 years ago consisted of a 5x5 frame which contained 24 small squares of equal size. |  | | The object of the puzzle was to slide squares into the empty position so that the frame displayed the letters in alphabetical order. |  | | The sequence of moves is represented by a sequence of As, Bs, Rs, and Ls to denote which square moves into the empty position. |

 | | It is a normal puzzle game in the sense that the object is to reach the exit to each level by pushing blocks, collecting keys, etc. The difference here is that there are two "player" characters, whom you move at the same time, who both must reach the exit. |  | | Block Man 2 is a slightly strange but fun puzzle game from Soleau Software, makers of dozens of classic puzzle type DOS games (and now Windows games too). |  | | however, if you enjoy 'slider' puzzles (where one block in a square is missing, and you slide blocks around in an attempt to make a picture) you'll probably enjoy this game. |

| | The Puzzle Fighter Shrine |
 | | Street Puzzle mode is still alive, with prizes as new colors, new game mode and the such (nowhere is said if the prizes are the same as the original game, the "I want you to know" song included). |  | | The vote on IGN is 8.0: Craig Harris (the reviewer) liked the game overall, but found the gameplay design of Puzzle Fighter too heavily based on luck to gain the game a spot amongst the best puzzle game released for the GBA. |  | | Anyway, he tries to play nicely and not to be too biased in favor of other games like the most quoted Puyo Pop, and at least make the bias recognizable by the readers, which is always a good thing. |

 | | The puzzle is to fill the 81 squares so that all such 3x3 slices contain every digit. |  | | Jean Van Laethem and Aymeric du Peloux made a puzzle game called Gartriage that involves using a train to move cargo to the correct loading station. |  | | They take 48 moves (8 vertices), 66 moves (9 vertices), and 118 moves (11 vertices) respectively, and are definitely harder than they look. |

 | | Hexic looks like your typical puzzle game from its shiny and brightly colored panels, but the way you play it is mainly by rotating trios of hexagons around central axes in a hexagonal grid to strategically remove clusters of tiles from the board. |  | | PC users can download the PopCap plugin from the developer's web site and have at a free browser-based version without a 360, of course, but then they wouldn't have the fun of playing one of the most popular casual games of the last few years on the first console of the next generation. |  | | In the light of recent research showing that lots of gamers enjoy puzzles, perhaps it's time to try a slightly different form of gaming. |
