I'd recommend playing Mark of the Ninja. I sat there, thinking for a long time at the end.

And if you like puzzles, there's spacechem.

I'll check out Mark of the Ninja, thanks.

SpaceChem is awesome, I played it a lot on PC and also now on tablet (it's more playable with mouse, though).

Also worth checking are all other games by Zachronics Industries (maker of SpaceChem)[0] - I particularly liked "The Bureau of Steam Engineering", where the goal is to route steam via pipes, valves, etc. inside a mech to make it fight other mechs.
