The Intruder, telling a Borges story over eight tiny Shockwave games [via Purse Lip Square Jaw]. An interview with the creator: "...looked like a game but in fact was a critical commentary on computer games and patriarchy".

(Now that's what I call ergodic literature.)

(Versus: Library Bookbomber!: "Set in the Library of Babel, you play Borges the nearly-blind Librarian battling a non-denumerable infinity of foreign-speaking janitors while hopping from low-ceilinged hexagonal room to low-ceilinged hexagonal room".)
