Fantastic puzzle game with unique ideas, beautiful art, and a story that is left intentionally ambiguous that some may or may not appreciate. The first game I bought on Xbox Live Arcade and one that left a lasting impression on me and kickstarted my appreciation of indie games. I'd personally put it on the same level as Bastion, Super Meat Boy, and Castle Crashers as one of the games that popularized the indie genre, especially on console.
Puzzles aren't ridiculously hard (haven't played the new levels only present in this remaster, so I can't speak to those), but you will appreciate the cleverness that goes into them and you will definitely have some "Ah Ha!" moments. Expertly crafted game, does not overstay it's welcome and each world is wholly unique in it's ideas and presentation.

If you've already played through Braid before, I highly recommend turning on the developer commentary (the "Playthrough" commentary will give curated bits of commentary throughout the entire game).
