It depends on what you're going for in terms of gameplay, but puzzles can be a welcome addition. If they're too tricky, then they can bog down the gameplay, like in Resident Evil 1, where you just sit there for minutes on end, thinking of what to do, but puzzles are able to break the "walk to the ...

The realities crashing into each other reminds me of Alice: Madness Returns. The results can be quite interesting.
