It’s debatable whether Obra Dinn is a video novel instead, although you can argue it predicted the recent Columbo revival

In my opinion Obra Dinn is an interactive radio play with graphics. Hyper-radio, if you will.

However, my definition of what can be considered a game is also quite broad, and Obra Dinn clearly has an interactive game loop so I think it counts.
