Best Wii U Action Puzzle Games of All Time

We already published the list of best Wii U games of all time, now it’s time to discover the best Wii U action puzzle games of all time.

With amazing titles available, the Wii U definitely has a great library of action puzzle games.

So, if you’re a fan of both the Wii U and action puzzle games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.

And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.

#5. Puddle

Puddle
  • Release Data: Neko Entertainment, 2013
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Puddle is a mechanically sound game that’s good for fans of physics puzzles.

The presentation is solid, and even though the controls aren’t the most optimal, they get the job done and provide enough options.

At times, the stark jump in difficulty can be a turn-off, but if you can handle that, you’ll find this title to be a good distraction.

#4. Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars
  • Release Data: Nintendo Software Technology/Nintendo, 2015
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars is very reminiscent of Lemmings, as the goal is to guide Mario and friends through levels by manipulating objects around them, instead of directly controlling them.

All in all, it is a hugely enjoyable action puzzler with some really fantastic ideas and mechanics.

#3. Scribblenauts Unlimited

Scribblenauts Unlimited
  • Release Data: 5TH Cell/Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, 2012
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

The campaign could be considered to be on the short side, and the multiplayer gameplay leaves much to be desired, but, as always, Scribblenauts is about the pure joy of extending your imagination.

This is the kind of game that looks great, controls well, and provides a lot of family-friendly fun.

#2. Toki Tori 2

Toki Tori 2
  • Release Data: Two Tribes, 2013
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

This sequel is quite different from the original Toki Tori, giving players new abilities to use.

Players can interact with the environment as well as the creatures that inhabit it, documenting their findings on a handy codex.

The Wii U version of the game features new puzzles and music, bringing out even more content to this already fleshed out game.

#1. Little Inferno

Little Inferno
  • Release Data: Tomorrow Corporation, 2012
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Little Inferno is an extremely divisive experience due to its interesting and satirical approach to the puzzle genre.

As you interact with items around you, you can place them in the fire, burning them and witnessing the results.

In many ways, Little Inferno is like your own personal sandbox; albeit with a lot of fire.

Hi, I'm R, and I've been playing video games since I was a kid. My first console was the original PlayStation (the gray one) and I spent countless hours playing Crash Bandicoot series and Spyro series. My second console was the PS2 Fat, and I completed all of the GTA series 100%.
