Tried any of these?

I played The Walking Dead one, and I have Gemini Rue here but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Not sure if there's a proper name for this genre, but I really love games that revolve around navigating an obstacle course. Games like Super Monkey Ball, Mercury, Kororinpa, Roll Away, etc., going back to Marble Madness. Sometimes these games can be decently popular but it gets no recognition as a "genre".
