Questions to ask potential customers to validate an idea before startup? "i will not promote"

I have a digital/SaaS idea that I think could be successful. I read everywhere about validating the idea with potential customers before starting to build. Right now I have no direct contact with any potential customers so it becomes a bit of "cold questions" and therefore I can't ask too much and the more I ask the less chance I have of getting a good answer.

What questions do you usually ask/what questions should I ask?

What I'm thinking of is:

  1. What system are you using today?
  2. Is there anything in your existing system that you are not happy with how it works today (too many features, missing features, slow, expensive, not really adapted to the business)?

Is it worth the time creating simpler puzzle games?

I have several unique ideas for puzzle games that are easy to learn, have a simple gameplay concept, and will hopefully be addictive.

The question, however, is it worth creating these and trying to reach an audience? If you have to spend money on ads, you also want to make some money back, and the competition is brutal. Which platform would be best?

I don’t want to do it only because it’s fun.
