The Absence of Miriam Lane

Somewhat of a mystery, this game has the player exploring around for clues. However, there is more going on than a run-of-the-mill mystery. It took me a little extra time to put together what I should probably be doing, and I think that might have cost me: I ended up failing my first playthrough. However, I can't wait to try it again. I like the puzzles and mechanics; the Twine format makes it very easy to navigate and retrace your steps when you realize there is something else you can try. Recommended.
