I recently played through Ben Croshaw's 'Chzo Mythos', 4 (mostly) point-and-click adventures that look like they were made around 1990. What starts out as a relatively simple ghost story in '5 Days a Stranger', develops into a brilliant story; something you'd get when crossbreeding HP Lovecraft with a movie like 12 Monkeys. And as an added bonus, I can incorporate Chzo perfectly into the background for a new character for Vampire Dark Ages, for which a new story is going to start a week or two from now.
I don't remember the name of the site the Mythos is posted on, but JayIsGames did a review, so you'll be able to find them there.
Oh and be sure to save often. Death doesn't occur that much, but when it does you probably won't see it coming.
