The discussion in this thread, from which I've borrowed the term "microparser" (thanks Pinkunz!), led me to want to collect small parser games. I'm thinking of ones that fit what's described in the thread--generally taking less than 30 minutes to complete. The ones I've played typically seem to feature a single puzzle concept or a very linear path to completion.
