Puzzle games are the new doomscroll
Wordle, 2048, Candy Crush — the puzzle loop is the most replayed format in gaming. On Remix it's a feed you scroll, not an app you download.
The most-shared games of the last decade were puzzles. Wordle turned a daily five-letter grid into a group chat ritual. 2048 ate a billion commutes. Candy Crush Saga proved match-3 could be a full-time hobby — and then added lives, timers, and a checkout flow around it. Tetris is older than most of the people playing it and still won't die. The format works because one round is short, the next round is "okay, one more," and there's no quarter to insert.
That's the loop we built the Puzzle category around. Open the feed, swipe, play, swipe again — the same muscle memory as TikTok, except every swipe is a game instead of a video. Match-3, slide puzzles, word grids — all in one place, all without a download or an energy bar.

No download, no ads between rounds, no friction. Just the next swipe.
