King's Quest: The Prince and the Porpoise. Prince Alexander goes on a long voyage. And is then swallowed by a porpoise.

Alexander puts his hands on his hips and says: "That's not funny. My sister already had that happen to her in the land of Tamir."

Amazingly, nobody cares.

King's Quest - The Egg-cellent Adventure. - You are the eagle who has returned to her nest - to discover someone has stolen your egg! The quest will take you to and from Daventry - venturing as far as the lands of Llewdor in your quest for your egg!

Hmm. Eagles have beaks, right? So can I suggest an alternate name: "Beak and Egg's Excellent Adventure"?

Not sure it's clear what I've been doing with the last few "games"...

King's Quest: Got Stumped. You're Ron, who has a habit of hiding your friend's things. One of which was a pouch that you hide in a treestump. After the dagger went missing - you go and see if the pouch is in the treestump - and gadzooks! It's not! Now before your friend finds out, you must embark through Daventry and see who the heck is moving rocks and looking in treestumps to find the things you've hidden!

Hmm, let's see now ...

1. King's Quest - Royalty is not all it's Cracked Up to be!

2. Conquests of Conan

3. King's Quest: The Dagger of Aww Man, Ron.

4. King's Quest - The Egg-cellent Adventure

5. King's Quest: Got Stumped

Not seeing a pattern immediately there, Tawm. Two of these have something to do with eggs, and two of 'em have something to do with someone called Ron. Hmm.

Can I buy a vowel?

If you look at 3, 4 and 5.

King's Quest 1, King Graham finds a dagger under a rock.
He climbs a tree, gets a golden egg.
Looks in a tree stump and finds a pouch.

I am doing "games" from the perspective of those who Graham found random items and explaining how they got there.
(And mostly how he's kind of a thief)

OK. Sorry, I haven't played KQ1 in ages, so ...

Leisure Suit Larry: Passionate Patti Needs Patience with the Potato Paradise! Passionate Patti starts a fish-and-chip shop, but nobody comes. (Quiet, Larry!) Can Patti's advertising campaign succeed? That's where you come in!

King's Quest: The Princess, Bribed: Princess Rosella has been caught in a bribery scandal! Trolls have bribed officials to increase bridge construction in the Kingdom of Daventry. Was she involved? Can she find the true culprit?

I'd play that.

King's Quest: The Princess Pride. Rosella has embarked on a new career! She is now a druidess, with a pride of lions of her very own to command. Trouble is, Rosella is also Chaotic Evil now - so she unleashes her lions against Daventry!!!

Can you help Prince Alexander to bring his sister back to her senses and stop acting like a stereotypical villainess (complete with a bone-chilling "Mwa-ha-ha"?

Leisure Suit Larry In Looking For Doves In All The Wrong Places. Larry knows picking up bride's maids can be an easy gig - so he's taken up to becoming a wedding planner to scoop out the action. However, right now he needs to find some doves to be released at the wedding. The only problem is - the AeroDork plane crashed in the Area 51 base!

Hmm. Why is this a problem? I don't get it.

Was the AeroDork plane carrying doves? Was it carrying Larry?

Well, for starters, security is super insane at Area 51. Making it difficult for Larry.

But the main problem is - Area 51 is desert area.

Doves are not a common thing out in the desert.

There in lies the problem.

Ah, OK. I didn't know Area 51 was in the desert. Thanks, Tawm!

Leisure Suit Larry ... In: Looking For Glove In All The Wrong Places. Amazing! Larry finally found a woman who likes him for who he is. And then, a complete jerk comes up to her and says: "Hey doll face, is this jerk boring you? Talk to me, I'm from a different planet."

Astoundingly, she agrees.

Larry, being Larry, is offended -- so in a fit of rage, he picks up the woman's glove, slaps the guy across the face, and challenges him to a duel. Problem is, Larry doesn't know anything about duelling.

Can you help get him out of this jam?

Leisure Suit Larry In: Looking For The Glove In All The Wrong Places. Again. Back in the day, Larry attends a Michael Jackson concert and sees him wearing only one glove. Can Larry find the other glove for the King of Pop and get rewarded handsomely?

Hey! No fair pinching my title.

Leisure Suit Larry ... In: Looking For Clove In All The Wrong Places. To impress the 'babes', Leisure Suit Larry is learning to cook. Can you help him figure out the difference between a clove of garlic and a clove of ginger, and so on?
