So, if you’re a fan of both the Xbox One 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.

#10. Flockers

Flockers
  • Release Data: Team 17, 2014
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Flockers is a fun Lemmings throwback that provides a decent challenge.

While the trial and error heavy gameplay will certainly put some off, those willing to engage their brains and reflexes will have a good time herding their flock through some downright dastardly levels.

#9. King Oddball

King Oddball
  • Release Data: 10tons, 2016
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

King Oddball is a great physics game with a slew of levels and some extra challenges that switch things up just when it would otherwise get tired.

With pleasing art direction and an adequate if limited soundtrack, you’ll find yourself whacking many armed military units into dust on your way across the map.

#8. iO

iO
  • Release Data: Gamious, 2017
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

iO is a solid physics puzzler with simple controls, minimalistic visuals, and challenging gameplay that comes together as an overall decent experience.

The tough difficulty spike and puzzles reliant on trial and error and good luck prevent this from being an excellent title, but if you are looking for a game to waste some time then this is worth trying.

#7. Spy Chameleon

Spy Chameleon
  • Release Data: Unfinished Pixel, 2015
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Spy Chameleon is a fun and engaging puzzler, with a likeable aesthetic that will keep you amused throughout its seventy-five increasingly challenging levels.

It’s a relatively short experience, but the extra challenges and leaderboards add length to an enjoyable indie package.

#6. Factotum 90

Factotum 90
  • Release Data: TACS Games, 2016
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Short, simple and fun, Factotum 90 is a must-have addition to any puzzle game fan’s collection.

With a unique premise and an interesting plot, it only ever tries to be exactly what it is and offers enough of a challenge to be a satisfying experience.

#5. Mystery Castle

Mystery Castle
  • Release Data: Runestone Games Limited, 2016
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Mystery Castle is a great emulation of classic games.

Down to the smooth and detailed sprite work all the way through the 8-bit score, it feels like a throwback to old school gaming.

Its challenging puzzles make for a great playthrough, and it definitely has enough puzzles to keep you busy.

Those who love puzzle platformers should definitely try this one out.

#4. Snake Pass

Snake Pass
  • Release Data: Sumo Digital, 2017
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Managing to be both nostalgic and refreshingly new, Snake Pass is a glorious adventure that brings the 3D action puzzle platformer right up to date.

Barring some frustrations and a tough difficulty level, there are few indie games that provide such a thoroughly entertaining, beautifully designed experience as this one right here.

#3. Peggle 2

Peggle 2
  • Release Data: PopCap/Electronic Arts, 2013
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Peggle 2 is ultimately the same basic concept as the original set of games, but it’s still most definitely worth playing if you’re a series fan.

However, it isn’t going to set the world on fire, or change the series.

After all, it is Peggle, and if you want more Peggle, you will get exactly that here.

#2. Hue

Hue
  • Release Data: Fiddlesticks Games/Curve Digital, 2016
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Hue is a charming indie puzzle platformer that presents a very unique mechanic and makes it central to the game’s progression.

Its fantastic visuals, refined gameplay mechanics and intriguing story are truly a delight to experience.

This should be more than pleasing to those who enjoy the genre or are just looking for a new gaming experience with a good story.

#1. FRU

FRU
  • Release Data: Through Games, 2016
  • Genre: Puzzle » Action

Although the Kinect failed to take off due to the lack of solid software, FRU is an exception.

The Kinect tracks your entire body, and as you move around the room, the corresponding silhouette causes platforms to appear and disappear.

Simply put, FRU tasks you to simultaneously contort your body while using a controller to complete challenging platforming levels.

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%.
