King's Quest: Ear Today, Gone Tomorrow. Uh-oh -- why is Alexander missing an ear?
Could it be that What's-his-name-Villain from Freddy Pharkas has claimed another victim? And what is What's-his-name-Villain doing in Daventry anyway?

Hero Quest: So You'd Rather Be a Grinder: A sandwich from New York leaves the big city. After a short stint as a hoagie in Philly, he finally settles down in New England.
(For those that might not know: Hero, Grinder and Hoagie are all local names for a type of sandwich more commonly called a Sub)
I realized a bit later that this might work better as
Hoagie's Quest: So You Want to be a Hero.
Space Quest: Man of Aluminum: Sent from the doomed planet Xenon, an infant is found a raised by the Wilco family. Earth's yellow sun grants him amazing abilities: faster than a speeding floor buffer, more powerful than a (model) locomotive, able to reach the top shelf as long as he has a step stool. He fulfills his people's destiny to become... A JANITOR.
Part of the joke is that Superman comes from Krypton which is also the name of one of the noble gases. Xenon is also a noble gas. I'm guessing this was intentional on the part of the Two Guys From Andromeda.

Conquests of Conan: You are the brutal barbarian by the name of Conan O'Bryan. You are on the small island of Ireland ... or is it... Scotland? Whatever. It's an island. And it's green. Everyone has red hair and speaks with an accent. We will sell this game as "COC" - should sell well.

Er, Scotland is not an island.
Ireland is, though.
King's Quest: Rare Today, Gone Tomorrow. This is set after MoE. Fer cryin' out loud - Connor, did you have to kill all the endangered species in Daventry? Now they're all extinct!
However, you play as an anthropologist. Your quest? To re-populate Daventry with all the endangered species that Connor so thoughtlessly killed. Like goblins, zombies, demons, dragons etc.

That was intentional. As if the writers had no idea what they're doing.

King's Quest: The Prince and the Purpose - Alexander goes on a long, meandering, and complicated quest to find out why he's even here. Kind of like Mask of Eternity, but with better graphics and more responsive mechanics.
