Some fifteen years ago, I came across this strange gameplaying/storytelling -medium. They called it Interactive Fiction. I thought it sounded interesting, but it turned out to be confusing, frustrating. I did not feel welcome in this world.
Then I came across "Worlds Apart". Thank you, Lady Britton, for "Worlds Apart".
For days on end I lost myself in this game, this story. Outer and inner worlds entwine. Exploration demands diving into ocean and mind alike.
Since that experience, I've played a lot of good, even great IF, but...
"Worlds Apart" will always be my first love.
