I always liked games like these.
They had a isometric view and mostly consist of navigating through dungeons filled with traps.
The Immortal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Immortal_%28computer_game%29)

Solstice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solstice_(video_game))
Theres actually many variations and sequels of this game on other platforms.

Can anyone recommend something similar?

Haven't played any of those games so I have no idea if they're similar but have you played the Heimdall games?
Heimdall 1 -

Perhaps Adventures of Robin Hood could be something? I kinda liked it anyway -

Cadaver is also pretty good -

Heimdall and Treasure Trap looks interesting.
The 2 i post aren't exactly rich in story or any type of roleplay stats..
You just go room to room solving puzzles and avoiding traps.

Oh ok.. several of the ones I posted contain fighting and some RPG stats but they're still cool games kind of similar to the ones you posted in style anyway :)
The Heimdall games are cool, I haven't played Treasure Trap a lot but it seems decent enough.

Don't turn your head too far away from the very site you're using, one of my favourites in this genre has to be Mystic Towers (http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/mystic-towers/screenshots), released by Apogee.
