If you like the Portal games, and want a prequel of sort that that is a bit harder, I'd suggest:
Portal Stories: Mel - https://store.steampowered.com/app/317400/Portal_Stories_Mel/
Story, voice acting and puzzles are on par with the original Portal games. As mentioned, it's a prequel. Reveals more about Cave Johnson which you get to know to some degree in the original Portal games. Also some parts about how GlaDOS came to be. No spoilers.



EDIT: (Another suggestion.

It's another game about athe dreaming. This time a toddlers dream world.
It has some puzzle elements in it. Like many other games in this sub-genre, it's more about the art, the story and puzzles.
Even though it's mentioned as a horror fps, it's not that much of a horror game. Just a toddlers view on the world which, from the perspective from a child can be kinda scary.
If you played through the horror-part of Superliminal, you know what this is about. Not that scary. Just a darker mood.
I only know 2 games using this idea: "Perspective" and "Fez". And both are great.
There was a similar game in the ludum dare 25 called "Tale of Scale".

It was only build in 48h and had some fun little moments.

Maybe check out Quantum Conundrum. It's a first person puzzler with the Uncle of your character voiced by John de Lancie(Q from star trek) who talks to you throughout the game.

This one is a side scroller but it has a similar outside the box puzzle theme

These set of custom community maps for Portal 2 use non-euclidean geometry as the core mechanic for its puzzles.

you could play the tech demo this is based on, Museum of Simulation Technology (but that is mostly just like the tutorial rooms since its just a tech demo)

I have a feeling people on the superliminal forums know about superliminal
https://store.steampowered.com/app/243220/FRACT_OSC/

is a no-brainer, if you dig rave esthetics. :ngarrow:
It's a game about solving rhythm puzzles by operating modular synthesizers in a neon world.
