Inhabitant

"You're imprisoned. And you need to find a way out. With the power to manipulate minds, use your uncanny ability to control the guards outside of your cell to force them to help you escape. The guards failing to keep you in your cell and catching you from running away is your progress towards completing each level."

Theme: It fits I promise! Sorta maybe. 

There are a finite number of possible missteps in each puzzle and by eliminating one you get closer to the solution. In other words, failure is progress. Also, it can be interpreted that the character is the bad guy, and therefore your failing and progressing at the same time by helping him finish.
