Total Amnesia — Thomas M. Disch

The world's most famous lost computer game, by one of the world's most famous science fiction authors, disappeared when the publisher lost the uncompiled version. Now, due to the efforts of people all across the United States, the game has been restored (it's available, free, by Googling Amnesia Restored) and the complete text and programming notes are available here. Included are appreciations and essays by John Crowley, Jimmy Maher (the Digital Antiquarian), Gregory Feeley, prizewinning game designer Aaron Reed, hypertext guru Mark Bernstein, Sarah Smith, and Dene Grigar of the Electronic Literature Lab.
