I get that Nxh5 is the only move, but after Qxh5 followed by Nf4 the puzzle ends. I guess I'm confused as to why this is even a puzzle when there is no tactics and also no other candidate move besides Nxh5. I get that ultimately you win the pawn on g2 but that's it?

If you take g2 with the bishop you win the exchange as well, don’t you?

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

Black to play: chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: >!Knight!<, move: >!Nxh5!<

Evaluation: >!Black is winning -6.03!<

Best continuation: >!1... Nxh5 2. Qxh5 Nf4 3. Qg4 Nxg2 4. Qg3 Nxe1 5. Rxe1 g5 6. c3 Rf4 7. Qe3 Kg7 8. Bd1 Qd6 9. Be2!<

After nf4 the queen is trapped and can only move to h4 or g4. Then the knight can take on g2 (protected by bishop) opening up the rooks attack on the queen which lets you take a rook with the knight when the queen retreats

It seems to be the sort of puzzle that is testing your vision with a clustered board, being able to see a couple of moves ahead and finding the best moves when there are lots of legal options. The move itself is very good as well, when you finally win that pawn you will, at the very least, be able to win the exchange and trade a rook for the knight or bishop.
