There are quite a few games I missed on the PC back in the 90's, even after getting my first real PC (an IBM Aptiva) in 1997. But we did try, my brothers and I, to get what we could. We also took risks with our purchases as we weren't tech experts and often bought high-end and demanding games, and when they didn't work we just put them aside. One such game was Trespasser. We found it buggy and slow and couldn't get very far because of these problems. However, after researching a bit yesterday I noticed that not only is it rated 3.3 out of 5 on Moby Games, or a 60/100 (that's not that bad!), it has nearly 900 votes on GOG's wishlist. This shocked me, as I knew even way back then that it was considered a commercial flop and was way before it's time. It's also praised for being one of the first games with realistic physics.
Here's a play-through of the beginning. The one playing goes over the history a bit:
