Johnny Castaway [0] was my all-time favorite. Loved the Easter Eggs on certain days, loved that it adapted to the system clock to match day and night themes with real life and found the story entertaining (almost binge-worthy I might dare to say).

I just want to add that my first introduction to PC's was a 286 or 386 at my friend's house in elementary school. His dad had this screensaver and I remember watching the guy on the island.
