It's the title adventure gamers love to hate on: Gabriel Knight 3, infamous for the "Cat Hair Mustache Puzzle," a bizarre bit of gameplay that was, supposedly, so bad it killed the entire adventure game genre. But is that true? www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgNK...

If you've ever been curious about the King's Quest games, but don't want to play them, this video is for you. It's 100% accurate for at least a quarter of the runtime.

The Dagger of Amon Ra initially had copy protection. When you failed it, the characters would make fun of you. The CD version removed this. But (most) of the voice lines were recorded, even though they're not accessible! youtu.be/1Xv2kTn-Wac
