Good singleplayer games without any story? (lemmy.zip)

Players usually want a good story in their games. I can enjoy a good story too, but sometimes I just want to get going and do stuff without listening to several minutes of dialog in-between action.

Do you know any games where there's no story (or very minimal/skippable one), and the game mechanics alone carry the game?

EDIT: Thank you all for the suggestions. There are some that I've never heard of and look very interesting. Will definitely pick some of them up.

Tetris, along with most puzzle games.

It's seriously hard to beat Tetris.

Tetris effect is insanely good for the music alone, and with ve the whole thing was an experience

Definitely doesn't have any story, that's for sure.
