Japanese puzzle

In the English language, the expression "Japanese puzzle" usually refers to logic puzzles, which (at least in the past) have been more popular in Japan than in the West, where word games dominate.

The largest publisher of puzzles in Japan is currently Nikoli; see the associated article for more information.
