Puzzles are problems or games that require thought, skill, and ingenuity to solve. They often involve a set of rules or constraints that the participant must navigate to find a solution. Puzzles can take many forms, including jigsaw puzzles, crossword puzzles, logic puzzles, and mathematical challenges. The primary goal is to engage the solver’s critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, often providing satisfaction or entertainment upon completion. Puzzles can be used for recreational purposes, educational tools, and brain exercises to improve cognitive function.
