The video game Big Walk features various cooperative puzzles that rely on physics mechanics and player communication. Early-game progression involves completing challenges such as the Red Tower, which requires solving sequence-based puzzles, time-sensitive tasks, and item collection to progress.

One specific puzzle involves using latitude and longitude coordinates found on a beach to locate a hidden button on an island. After completing tower challenges, players can access a map room to aid in navigating these coordinates. Following the completion of the main story and the Black Sphere puzzle, players can engage in endgame content known as the Purple Gourd challenges. These seven optional puzzles focus on coordination-based tasks, such as transporting heavy objects and decoding light positions, which are optimized for two-player cooperation.
