Try changing your puzzle Difficulty setting to Hard or Extra Hard if you want more points on a successful puzzle.

I will say that the default puzzle difficulty is now probably too easy for most players.

I can guess why you set it that that way (most games are lost on easy tactics, not hard ones); but I don't think this has been communicated well, and harder puzzles are just more fun.
