I still play TIM from time to time. I love physics puzzle games.

TIM was the first game I played. If you l8ked it back in the day you might wanna check out Armadillo Run.

So, this is an article about Space Quest II and it briefly mentions King's Quest III... Maybe it's just me but I thought the title promised games as many, this felt like a random blog post.

Quest for Glory I is still my favorite game of all time. I go back and play it fairly regularly (EGA version). I usually carry the character to Trial by Fire, though between that one and Wages of War, I often peter out. If I make it to Shadows of Darkness, I generally complete that one. Dragon Fire I've only managed to compete once. It's just really rough around the edges.

The old Sierra games are a specific experience. But they really were amazing in their time.
