Michael Gentry's "Anchorhead" is my favourite game of all time, of all genres (and I used to devote a lot of time to gaming back in high school).

Never met anyone else who played this game. It's amazing.

To sell it a little for the uninitiated: You inherit a distant, eccentric relative's old property in a sleepy, foggy seaside Maine town, and are thrust into a Lovecraftian murder mystery. Awesome.

And whatever happens always keep your umbrella.
