    1. iBlast Moki (good you had this category now!)
    2. Rolando(s)
    3. Tiki Towers
    4. Geared
    5. Ragdoll Blaster
    6. Fantastic Contraption

    EDIT: Read back about some of the points on Rolando and yes the stuff you have to do is physics so I amended the original list. Its now 6 but I think you said that is ok.

    Except Dungeon Hunter doesn't use a physics engine for movement and Sway does.

    Well then this category will be enormous if we include games that have a physics engine. Pool/snooker games count, all platformers count (characters have to fall down), lots of puzzles count, Glyder counts etc. I can't include it.

    OK then, I guess the category is more specifically - Physics Puzzle Games.

    Yeah but the movement is a major part of Sway, the whole game is based around using physics to sway, swing, flip and launch your character around the level. Pool games use physics engines to enhance features they already have, this one completely relies on it.

    Simply making a character fall down doesn't require a physics engine anyway, I don't think the NES was that powerful.

    I'm tweaking the title now to Physics Puzzle Games. I think there are enough titles here for some more varied votes. BTW, puzzle games include Moonlights, Tiki Towers and building sort of games.

    If we're doing puzzle physics does that mean Jelly Car doesn't count now? It's not very puzzling... more of a platform physics game.

    Ok so does that mean I should revert my list back to the original 5 and not count Rolando? Will you do that or should I re-edit my post?

    It does count. There is definitely a puzzle element to the game (grow/shrink) car, and because there are all these levers and stuff, I think it counts.

    Rolando is a physics puzzle game. Lots of levels require you to think outside the box and try new ways to get mechanisms to work for you (rolling the rock down the hill which is like fitting pieces together in a jigsaw.)
