It seems that for every Comp game that's still talked about today (e.g., Slouching Towards Bedlam, Shade, Photopia, etc.), there's ten or so that have been almost completely forgotten; some of them even placed in the top ten or higher. (Sic transit gloria!) We all have our favorite neglected Comp gems, so let's talk about them here.
