Are you sure we can’t make it 50 instead of 15, Flotsam? I always feel like I'm leaving out old friends. Well, anyway, here's mine:
Alida Beyond Atlantis Journeyman Project 3: Legacy of Time Lighthouse: The Dark Being Morpheus Myst III: Exile Myst IV: Revelation Obsidian RealMyst Rhem Riddle of the Sphinx Riven Starship Titanic Timelapse Zork Grand Inquisitor
Sorry, Santa! There were too many options.

This is so tough because some of the classic games that I would say everyone should play just don't hold up graphically to todays standards. So here goes with my favorites: 1. Gabriel Knight 2 The Beast Within 2. Discworld 1 3. Discworld 2 4. LeChucks Revenge Monkey Island 2 5. The Longest Journey 6. Syberia 7. The Black Mirror 8. Curse of Monkey Island Monkey Island 3 9. Broken Sword 1 Circle of Blood 10. Simon the Sorcerer 2 The Lion,the Wizard and the Wardrobe 11. Day of the Tenacle Maniac Mansion 2 12. Legend of Kyrandia Book 1 13. Secret of Monkey Island Monkey Island 1 14. Simon the Sorcerer 1 15. Runaway A Road Adventure I also want to list the games I left off since they are older and not up to the graphic standards of todays games. These games might be older but they are well worth playing if you have missed them. Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders- Awesome Puzzles. The Dig- Excellent music and atmosphere. Tony Tough and the Night of the Roasted Moths Challenging puzzles and funny voice acting. Grim Fandango- A classic. Fable- Short but fun. Kings Quest 2- An oldie but goodie. Kings Quest 7- Sierra games were always fun. Dracula 1 & 2- I especially loved 2. Space Quest Series- Monkey Island/Discworld humor mixed with wicked puzzles.
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.
