Leisure Suit Harry. Harry Potter's all grown up and is wearing the infamous leisure suit. A swinger with magic powers. :shock: Look out, ladies (and everybody else!)
You missed the obvious joke.

True. Or "Wanna see my broomstick fly?"

Get ready for brand new “remasters” of the beloved series, done in stunning, blocky 90’s 3D style! With no hardware acceleration available at this stage, enjoy visiting your favourite locations in classic 640x480 software mode. The lack of bilinear filtering really brings out the pixels of the “gorgeous” new low-res textures. A cast of Z-list actors in bargain basement Halloween costumes, poorly chroma keyed into the environment, brings all your favourite characters to questionable life. With no DOS interpreters and only 16-bit Windows executables, better hope some diehard fan comes up with a custom patch soon if you want to run these puppies on Windows 10!
So... Mask of Eternity? :D

Pretty much…except that game had blocky 3D characters, not the green screen technique.

Quest Quest: The Sierra team makes a Quest game about how the entire team gets together and writes a Quest game. One of the puzzles is what to call the game: Quest for Quests? Questy Quest for Quests? How about Arthur? Or Harold? Harold sounds nice. Hang on, that's the Quest for Hero's Name. Completely different.

What shall we name the villain? How about Mahna-Mahna-Man? That sounds good, we'll go with that. Only we'll drop the "h"s or Jim Henson will sue. And change the "m"s to "n"s. Mananananan! There we go. Too confusing? Ergh, fine. We'll shorten it a bit. Manannan! Done! Now who's up for coffee and donuts?

And that's how the evil wizard in KQ3 was born ... ;)

Here’s a serious attempt for a change…

Laura Bow in Murder on the Southern Quarter

Laura receives a letter from her old friend Celie, sadly informing her of Colonel Dijon’s passing. With Steve joining her for moral support, the two head down from New York to New Orleans to attend his funeral, which Celie has arranged to take place on a lavish riverboat. But when some of the mourners end up having their losses mourned as well, it’s all to obvious that an uninvited guest is aboard, and the most likely target is the Colonel’s sole heir, Celie. And whoever it is obviously wants no witnesses. Laura and Steve must join forces to protect Celie and uncover the culprit. Then John Bow sends a telegraph through to the boat with alarming news: Rudy Dijon and Ryan O’Riley have both just been discovered to have escaped from prison several days earlier. Now Laura has a pretty good idea who’s after them. Is it one, or both?

Leisure Suit Sonny. Sonny Bonds wakes up one morning, thinks, "Pounding the pavement is for suckers, baby!" and puts on the famous leisure suit. :shock:

Look out, ladies, or he'll ask if you if you want to see his nightstick.

Oh, wait ... didn't this already happen in PQ1? *headdesk*

You'd think he'd enjoy "pounding" anything he could!

Leisure Suit Larry VIII: Quest for Story. At long last, it's going to happen! Launch Leisure Suit Larry VIII and enjoy a knock off of INCEPTION as Larry goes into his own mind bending reality to go backwards and rediscover what REALLY happened in Leisure Suit Larry IV: The Missing Floppies.

As a bonus! DISK 1! On floppy! To capture that retro feel!

Heh - could be fun right? Have it start with modern graphics - then go back to SCI graphs for LSLIV.
Similar to SQ4 when Roger goes back to EGA. :D

It could work! :) Why not? The only question is, who owns the rights to Leisure Suit Larry nowadays?

Leisure Suit Larry IX: in... I'm Not Scumsoft, I'm Scumhard.
The company Larry works for has been purchased by Scumsoft - and now Larry must find a way to make it work. Guest staring two guys wearing a red mohawk and twinkies on their nose.
