Especially the gruesome ways you could die if you got caught at the wrong moment. Getting dragged around by your braids by the ogre and such. Scary! King's Quest 3 had that tension at the beginning with trying to escape the wizard's home. And I loved making the potions (I love that kinda stuff in games, it's why I adored Legend of Kyrandia 2: Hand of Fate as well, cause Zanthia, the main character, gets to make potions and such).

Yeah, it's on amazon and such it doesn't cost too much either. The downside is that it's a very simple package, a box, a cd with the games on. The manuals are PDF files. It's fairly spare :P But the King's Quest one, for example, has all 7 (we're not counting 8, 8 didn't exist) games on it.

I really do recommend it. Especially start with Sins of the Fathers (the first one) if you can find it anywhere, it's got a good, suspenseful story and good puzzles.
