Game: Fallen London

When I was a young'un, the things we would consider video games or digital entertainment was wildly different than what we enjoy today. This isn't a "you kids today" talk, because I'm not saying it was better back then... it's just changed a lot. Text adventure game were a legitimate genre back then, and they were compelling, and decidely low-tech. Really more akin to a choose your own adventure book than what you might think of as a video game. There's not many around these days, but Fallen London does a good job of evoking the feelings of playing one while bringing those feelings to date.
