It's unfortunate itch doesn't give you a way to sort by jam games by top level category. I'm really curious to see what other puzzle games folks submitted but I have to scroll through the submissions trying to find them by hand. In any case I'm happy to take a look at and rate any puzzle games that were submitted.  If you post your game, link, and a one-sentence description  perhaps we can get some genre traction! 

Here's the puzzle game I submitted: 

Rate Food Grade Bananas by Alan Robinson, Developer for Gamedev.js Jam 2026 - itch.io

Box repulsing game, sokoban-ish but with simultaneous movement and one-shot robots to give it variety.

I'd like to think of my game as some sort of puzzle, not sure if everyone would agree though!

Thanks for creating this topic, will check yours and the other ones!

What a neat initiative. I'm also heavily into puzzle games. 🤗 For this Jam I made a puzzle game based on, well.. Cogs. ⚙️ Feel free to check it out. 

Cogs Up!

since folks are stepping up to recommend other people's games, here's one that's good and seems to have little attention:

 /jam/gamedevjs-2026/rate/4512609

it's a sokoban, fairly traditional but with heart

y'all may have seen this one since it's already popular, but this is best in show, IMHO: 

Rate Kobots by Golen for Gamedev.js Jam 2026 - itch.io

Our game is a top-down 2D puzzle sokoban where you play as a roomba trapped in medieval times
