We all love our "Doom"," Command & Conquer", "Commander Keen" etc.

But what is a game that you love that no one seems to know and/or like? What is that one gem that makes you type your "C:>cd games" just that little tiny bit faster?

I'll go first. My pick is Normality from 1996 by Gremlin Interactive. A 3D first person point and click adventure with FMV Cutscenes. It's goofy and weird but perfectly playable. I highly recommended anyone who loves point and click adventures to try this one out. It's basically Doom Point 'n Click

Not sure about underrated, but definitely mostly unknown anymore, would have to be Star Control 2.

Melee mode was great. As was the music.
