Title
There are some fun platforming bits, but Jonathan Blow's next game (The Witness) has much more depth is actually a game you'll come back to play...unlike Braid. Just replay Portal or watch a longplay of Braid; it's a very gimmicky game that you don't need to experience.

Personally, I find this game to be a footnote in the history of gaming; Braid came at a time when indie titles were getting reviewed and played more and more. It rode the wave to success.
