Games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Fez and Destiny get a lot of credit for challenging the packs of people who play them to put their heads together to solve puzzles: players share tips online and make message board breakthroughs. Nintendo kids were doing that on the playground a quarter century ago, of course, trying to figure out puzzles in the original Zelda. Now a new, unassuming Nintendo game has actually been programmed—perhaps a first for a Nintendo game—to empower its far-flung crowd of players to solve some of its puzzles together online.
