Some multimedia titles which have impressed me:
-The 7th Guest - for the beautiful rendering; the game's a little dull
-Broderbund'd Living Books series (eg. Just Grandma and Me, Arthur's
Teacher Trouble) - for kids, cute characters, well-finished.
-I Photograph To Remember - not that interactive, but great pace
-Poetry In Motion - watch movies of poets reading/performing their work. 
Brings the poetry alive, makes it much more accessible and interesting to 
people who aren't normally poetry buffs.
-Now What software's Small Blue Planet - excellent for map lovers

Hope this helps.
