A unique hl2 mod that is definitely worth playing if you have an hour or 2 of uninterrupted free time. You will need hl2 for it tho.
This mod was actually made by a writer which is pretty astonishing because this mod still looks great. (although there are a few bugs, nothing to big)
Here's a nice little review i guess:

Basically Dear Esther is unlike any other game you will ever play. Warning: don't play Dear Esther for fun... It's really really slow. But if you have the patience to play it through you should find it very enjoyable. btw there is no shooting and shit. It's just walking.
In Dear Esther you are on an island and you walk around while there is a narrator reading you bits and pieces of letters addressed to somebody named Esther. That's it. When you walk to different places more and more pieces are added and in the end you don't really know much more than you did from the first 5 minutes. Which is nothing(or close to nothing). I still liked it and some of it is easy enough to understand. Again, if you have some free time just play it.
Jack, play this game.

put the dear esther folder in C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods

its the same with any other hl2 mod.
There is another mod made by the same guys called korsakovia which is a horror action survival sort of game. The story progression is a lot like dear esther.
