I don't often use Steam as I don't have a lot of time, but I was brought up playing text adventures in the 1980's and this caught my eye, especially the fact that it comes with an original ZX Spectrum game. I'm not that far in, but so far the game is excellent fun, with challenging puzzles and a good sense of humor. The parser is strong, but it's really worth reading the manual for hints to get the best out of it.

We only develop games that embrace that era, aiming to provide true classicly styled gaming, with a massive retro feel, maybe with a slight hint of what these games would have been with a little more processing power.
We don't aim to develop AAA games, but simply to bring our passion for a time gone by to those who love truly classic themed and inspired games. If this is a genre and era that you love, then our games are for you.

Not just a text adventure. There's art, sound and also has an advanced parser as you can see from the trailer. The puzzles are fun and challenging. Plus, as a bonus, you also get Zenobi Software's Stranded 1 along with it (playable in the accompanied Spectrum emulator). I do recommend reading the manual, even if you have played many text adventures before this one. It has tips and new features which you really don't want to miss out on.
The absolute worst game I have ever played. Complete horse sh*t. I grew up on text based games so real excited about this but wouldn't recommend to my enemies. For $3 I'll keep just in case it is ever actually playable.
