Please increase the zoom out!

The lab, if it were to contain large puzzles, seem to necessitate something like this.

Like, if it wasn't a permanent zoom level, but instead there was an owl or bird type dex skill that would give you a higher view.

The other option is being able to "lean the camera", where your character is now on the edge of the screen and you can now see farther in one direction. This makes alot of sense if you're moving in one direction, such as a linear board. The effect could be done automatically when moving and recenter when standing still.
