“if you like fate by numbers, you might be into origami shadows: its a metafiction, rather than point and click you follow a trail of bread crumbs by reading the story and following the links; sometimes there is a trick in the text

http://www.origamishadows.com/ (click metafiction to get started)

for example, a clue in the text tells you something, so you type the answer to the clue into the the html adress: say the answer to the clue is “good” you would right “good” as the last path in the address: http:www.blahblahblah/good

other times the clues are hidden: tab is your friend to find all the links

and ctrl a will select all the text to find hidden words, etc

its part novel/part game; this one is really good, sci fi/mystery elements to it: just keep following the links like following your way through a labyrinth

the premise is a guy wakes up to find a girl with amnesia taking a bath in his tub, but then she goes missing, and he needs to find her but his own memory is fragmented–it definitly has a philip K. dick feel to it

i remember when i played it it took like 36 hours to finish, but he has since
added videos, though the acting is low budget and lame the metafiction is amazing

he’s also added maps to it now (shadow folding), buy only refer to these if you get lost!!!”
