Thank you for the transparency! It is important to remember that it's not just the amazing work the mods do here but there is a real cost to running this.

Not quite the same puzzley aspect but check out etrian Odyssey. It's premise essentially is that you have a dungeon crawler and you have to make the map yourself. There are tools in game for making the map as you go.

I got to see them open up for timecop 1983 a few years back. Effectively unknown they instantaneously won everyone at the show over with "Heaven's servant". Thanks for sharing this! I missed that they had some new music.

Heck yeah! Thanks for getting this up
