The Architect is a game I covered way back last year, and now it's had a full release I gave it another run. If you like puzzle games done a bit differently, this will be a good fit for you.
I can't say I've come across many puzzle games like it, and the level design is quite interesting to the point of being frustrating at times. Frustrating mainly as it takes some patience to work out a good way to travel, and not end up stuck. You use up and down modifiers to change the squares in the labyrinth, so if you're not careful you can end up boxing yourself in. I get stuck a lot in games like this.
I'm not sold on the story-telling, as I found it to be quite odd and randomly placed, but the puzzle mechanics are great. The visual style fits perfectly for what it's trying to achieve, and it does look quite nice.
It's a perfect game to have Steam Workshop, and soon it will!
