2 weeks ago I was inspired by my trip to the Little Lakes up in the Sierras this week. We spent some time navigating a large boulder field alongside a stream that required finding a usable path across. Could easily be translated into a jumping/maze puzzle.
Can't just be combat. What happens outside of combat is just as important. We'll need both active challenges and mellow downtime stuff. There needs to be a point though, so we should present them as challenges/puzzles foremost. This helps to improve "endogenous value".
