Speaking of overlooked games... Torin's Passage is perhaps the most obscure game created by Sierra Online. You play as the titular Torin who lives on the world of Strata, a unique planet that has smaller worlds inside of it. When his parents are turned to stone by a wicked wizard, Torin has to venture to every single world inside Strata to find a way to cure his folks, including the infernal wasteland that is Asthenia.

Asthenia is such a dark and bleak place it has not one but THREE disturbing songs: the theme of the caverns, the theme of the overworld, and finally a twisted tune that plays when you activate a bizarre machine to retrieve an item.
