Puzzle mashup ideas I've never quite figured out the rules for:
Minesweeper vs Conway's Life. You're trying to figure out where all the mines are, but they periodically move, under Life rules. So some of your previous deductions give you new information, but not all, and you have to keep ahead of it. But how does the game decide when a Life turn happens?
Or how about a puzzle in which you push digits around until you get them all different in each row, column etc: 'Sudokoban'. Hmmmm.
