I just 100%'d Can of Wormholes. The density of secret discoveries in this game is extremely high. Higher than basically all the other puzzle games I've played. That alone warrants a recommendation. I believe this game's difficulty caters well to players not engrossed in the puzzle genre as well.

Things I didn't like as much: Sound effects. I don't like 'em. Some of the puzzles are glorified counting puzzles or an exercise in mirroring an image across an axis. And most importantly, the delay before continual movement (like DAS in Tetris) is extremely awkward. It often results in me being unable to accurately position my worm. Sometimes I get annoyed and just tap the WASD keys repeatedly instead of holding it down. A smoother movement system can be found in games such as A Monster's Expedition, or Baba Is You.
