'''Puzzle games''' test the player's reflexes and knowledge. The objective in most ''Super Mario'' puzzle games is to clear the screen of various objects, similar to that in ''[[Tetris]]''. However, a few ''Super Mario'' puzzle games incorporate different types of gameplay, such as ''[[Mario's Picross]]'' and ''[[Yakuman DS]]''. Games belonging to this genre include the ''[[Dr. Mario (series)|Dr. Mario]]'' series, ''[[Wario's Woods]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Cookie]]'', and ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]''. Other than the latter, unlike most ''Super Mario'' games, puzzle games do not have items. However, they generally have a large cast of characters.
