Favorite Sierra adventure series?

What's your favorite Sierra adventure series. Mine is the Quest for Glory/Heroes Quest series. Laura Bow, Police Quest, and Kings Quest are close. In fact I loved all of em, except for Space Quest.... which was a terrible excersise in bordedom. :yuck:

Space Quest is the definitive adventure game series. Definately my all time favorite. Except for 6. SQ6 just sucked ass.

4 and 5 were far and away my favorites, but the earlier ones were excellent for their day too. I've played all of them through to completion (including the original and remake versions of SQ1), and that's the only series of that size I can say that about.

Which was the best Kings quest?

6

I have really bad Space Quest related childhood memories. I remember getting stuck in some puzzle for months on end and never being able to finally solve it. And I didn't like the characters all that much either. I think that Police Quest had the best characters.

Kings Quest was my first PC game and thus the series was always a favourite. I didn't finish the first game when I was little. A few years ago I downloaded it and finished the entire game about 30m after I started a game. 'Bout damn time. |-)

I think cyptic puzzles that would sometimes stump you helplessly were pretty much just part of the genre. Sam and Max was like that, Kings Quest series was like that, hell, Zork and Hitchiker's Guide were like that. It's just the nature of the format. SQ was no worse about it than any other adventure game. Like I said, I did manage to beat them all.

And Roger was the only character that really counted, and he was hilarious. and the narrator. The talky version of DQ4 was the best. I wish they made a talky version of 5, because 5 really was the best one otherwise.

I'm generally not that great at solving puzzles. I did beat most of my DOS adventure games though.

And I think that Zork and Dagger of Amonra(the second LB game) were the hardest adventure games I've ever played.

Quest for glory

Space Quest. I love all the quest games, and I throw a fit for Gabriel Knight, but there's just something about Space Quest's dorky sence of humor that does it for me. :D
