The impression I get from TFA is that this is about "unfinished/unreleased" games more than "lost" games. A "lost" game, film, or work of literature would be one that was published or released, only to disappear again from the historical record.

Several lost games from the text-adventure world are listed here:

(To be fair, many of the games listed in the latter two posts seem to be known only via advertisements; it's conceivable that those advertised games might never have existed. But in many cases we know a game existed because we have testimony from people who played it at the time.)
