What was your favorite adventure games? I did like the humor in the
beginning of Space Quest IV on my friends' fancy full tower 386 PC! I
was jealous!

 Hero's Quest, later renamed to Quest For Glory is my favorite
adventure game of all time. It is also my favorite series. King's
Quest IV, V and VI are also some of my favorites. Maniac Mansion is
the game that got me into the genre so obviously I have a lot of love
for that one.
 I remember Space Quest IV: Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers because I
played through it several times.
 The Adventure Game genre does not hold my attention the way it once
did but I will always have a soft spot for it. I played so many of
them back in the day.

oh, if we talk Quest for Glory we can crosspost to .rpg as well I guess :D
I do actually wonder why there weren't more of those adventure/rpg crossovers. The whole genre started as way to emulate DnD and spelunking on a computer, but they all went into different directions. Very few adventure games crossed genres like the QfG series did.
