Platform Puzzlers

This is a huge genre that enjoyed a massive resurgence during the 2010s thanks to a little game called Limbo. These are similar to action platformers but with gameplay focused on solving puzzles or negotiating tricky landscapes rather than shooting things. They range wildly from clever jump-based mechanics to environment manipulation. The truly intricate puzzle-based variety such as Fez and Snapshot, while marvels to behold, require a deep and complex level of thinking far beyond the scope of this here reviewer's mental capabilities; hence the reason they're not included.
