This article compares the number of puzzles included in each game with the rest of the games of the series. Puzzles may include number of inventory items and their uses (this may require a detailed breakdown of certain items which may have more than one use), and noting if the alternate solution leads to less points, or lesser ending. Some items may be used for solutions to puzzles or problems offering no points but not taking anway way as well (for example the goat in KQ1 will guard from the bad guys), but many of these are not counted as 'puzzles' for total quota in this list.
