    Hey I was wondering if any one has any suggestions for good puzzle platformer games.

    If you don't know what I mean by puzzle platformers I have attatched a link below to an online game called ice breakers. The game is a perfect example of what I am looking for:

    Thanks

    Diamond Breaker is exactly what your looking for. It is the same game as the online link you provided.

    lol. No matter how you say it, it is by far the best puzzle platform out there.

    OK, maybe Archibald's Adventure deserves an honorable mention, but besides these two, I have not found another I really liked.

    Have you tried Ice Age? I have played both of the games you mentioned plus Ice Age and I must say... Ice Age the best puzzle/platformer I have ever played on the iDevice.

    I bought it last night, and fooled around with it, but did not really play it yet. Now I'm even more excited to play it. Thanks for the advice.

    Well technicallt Soosiz is a well made traditional platformer.

    A puzzle platformer is one where you don't need the traditional reflexes and timing to traverse the stage as you would a true platformer. In a puzzle platformer all you're really doing in understanding how to manipulate the layout of the stage, platforming is only needed to access different parts of the stage.

    You don't need reflexes to help out in Archibald Adventures as opposed to New Super Mario Bros, for example.
