If so which ones? I remember watching my brothers play Police Quest 2, Space Quest 3, and Robin Hood. I’ve played the later police quest games and Space Quest along with some Kings Quest games. As a kid I always wanted to play Leisure Suit Larry since Babbages always had a warning label on it.
I’ll check out Steam and download a bunch in bulk. I was looking for a list and came across a “best of” list from PC Gamer and true to form they couldn’t shut up about politics. When discussing police quest they had to go off on a tangent about Floyd and policing being “racist”.
Also may try Willy Beamish again. Bothers me that I never beat it

Babbages was a very early PC shop that sold everything from printers to parts to office software to games, and there weren't tons of games back then so you could spend hours in there reading the giant boxes they came in with posters and books and stacks of floppy disks banded together, looking at screenshots, and asking the staff if they were any good. There was maybe one or two magazines on pc gaming at the time, and there was a sense of wonder and suspense buying something, getting it running, and finding out the hard way if it was a sleeper hit or dog shit. It was great.
