Early puzzle platformers?

I've been playing Closure on PS3 and started thinking about how much I enjoy the genre. Recent indie games like Limbo, Braid, And Yet It Moves, Hamilton's Great Adventure, etc. are all really fun. Trial and error platform games with static levels, fixed position enemies, and tricky 'how do I get to the exit?' logic puzzles.

So... where did this genre start? The earliest mainstream puzzle platformer that I could think of was Lemmings. Was there anything earlier?

[TL]

You know what thats a good question because all the other ones I can think of came out after Lemmings like Humans (Dino Dudes), Sleepwalker, Lost Vikings and Krusty's Fun House.

There was probably something similar on the Spectrum but nothing I can think of right now.

good question, but i cant think of a lot of games in the genre other than the previously mentioned lost-vikings.

Doki Doki Penguin Land was an early puzzle platformer. Much like the Mario series.

Of late Limbo, Braid and Fez are bench markers.
