Riven
I decided to revisit an old favorite of mine. I haven't played this since it was new, but I think of it pretty often. I thought I'd be able to sail through this in a night, no problem, but my memories weren't quite as good as I thought they were. It wasn't as painless as I thought it would be, but I eventually got through it.

My very initial impression was "wow, this has not aged well", but within five minutes I was happily immersed in the world yet again. And by the end I had experienced one new moment of awe, which was enough to make the whole trip worthwhile.
