Good or interesting Portal clones/FPP puzzle games?

[WhyNott]

So I've recently beaten Talos Principle and I've been craving for some more cerebral fitness. I vaguely recall that I always hear about some Portal-likes being released every year, but they always drop under the radar very quickly. If anyone want to recommend some lesser known games of that kind, Id love to hear. It doesn't even matter to me if they are super good, as long as they are interesting in some way.

So, these are the ones I have already played/heard of, in no particular:
The Ball
Talos Principle
Quantum Continuandum (or something like that, wasn't very good)
Magrunner: The dark pulse
Antichamber

I may be missing some, but these are just those I remember of the top of my head.

The Witness is kinda a distant cousin. Hard, frustrating, but intellectually and experientially the most satisfying puzzle game I've played

Also while it's not action-paced, I'd recommend Myst series or recent Obduction by Cyan Games. They all hold special place in my heart and I do recommend them because of how well they integrate puzzles in the world, making them a part of it.

QUBE is a few years old by now, but I felt some Portal vibes while playing it

Puzzles aren't their primary focus, so I'm not sure if you'll be into that sort of stuff, but both Legend of Grimrock games had some wonderfully designed puzzles that felt both challenging and very satisfying to solve. Well, for the most part at least, there's also a few frustrating ones mixed in between that must've only made sense in the creators head.

Definitely worth playing through, both games had me totally hooked.

I was going to come in to post this one. Although it becomes a lot of stupidly difficult action about half way in.

I was about to add that as well, I didn't find it impossible though, the part with the Strider was real wonky.

Riven / Myst / Obduction

Thanks a lot for the suggestions! I was thinking more in lines of more straightforward portal clones rather then just games with puzzles, but it still helped me a bit (I totally forgot that QUBE exists!).

I do seem to recall reading (semi-recently, about a year or two ago), a review of prison themed portal clone. It got a poor review score from what I remember, but I'm still curious about it. Anyone knows which game is that?

I second trying out Antichamber if you haven't! I noticed it's on your list already but also noticed you said it's a list of things you heard of so in case you haven't.

[Huge Slutty Mess]

The Turing Test has a few portal esque gimmicks and a similar aesthetic, nothing but puzzles except a few short breaks and the intro/outro.

Yeah, I've already played it! Thanks for response anyway!

[QUOTE=Qbe-tex;52806857]Portal mods may be cheating but [URL="http://www.moddb.com/mods/blue-portals"]Blue Portals is a short fun little mod[/URL] AND I believe local user ColossalSoft worked on it?. The initial mod is only 10 puzzles long but they released a mappack or two.[/QUOTE]

Played Blue Portals and extended play, it was pretty fun!
