To Bare is Human: In this alternate sequel to KQ3, a desperate Alexander puts the "llewd" in Llewdor by revealing the Daventry jewels in a raunchy dance show.
Cask of Eternity: Play as a group of frat boys who seek out a mythical never-emptying beer cask reported to have fallen into Queen Icebella's hands. At least it'll be nice and cold when the find it.
Man Hunter: Another Yvette Delacroix game, what else?

! I like these all, but especially "To Bare is Human".
Naughty lewd Alexander! Not suitable for children, or anyone else for that matter.
Police Blessed - Sonny Bonds's latest assignment is to get a Catholic priest to bless, and spray holy water in and around, Lytton's PD. What?

Exactly what it sounds like.
Is anyone interested? Let's create really, really bad ideas for Sierra-related kickstarters. So bad that they should never be written. The worse, the better!
I'll start.
King's Quest VIII: Prince Alexander Deals with Demontia. Exactly what it says on the tin. Help Alexander deal with dementia. Sounds like a nice thing to do, right?
Well, it turns out his dementia is caused by a
demon! Boooooo!

I thought we had a thread about terrible Sierra ideas. But I can't find it.
Billy's Quest I: Water Under The Bridge. A game focused on the goat, and the history between goats and trolls, and bridges. You are Billy, the Goat, met in King's Quest.

That was it. Shall we merge or keep separate?

Merged and changed the title to be yours!
Police Quest V: DONUT RESIST. - Someone has gone and robbed every donut shop in Lytton. Now you're assigned the case of the robbery of these donuts. But each turn leads deeper and deeper into a conspiracy that will rock all of Lytton!

I had a 'Freudian slip' moment there, because I thought you wrote that "each turn
lards deeper and deeper..." etc.
Donuts, lard ... ye gods.
Space Quest XX: The Great Space Race! Help Roger build a rocket to go back to the Milky Way and save Earth. (This might actually work).
But then ... it turns out that the rescue mission is simply a lure to start a racing game, where Roger races all the Space Quest villains -- Captain Quirk, Sludge Vohaul, Sharpei, and (possibly) Elmo Vohaul Pug ... (although that last one wasn't much of a villain, really).

Space Quest (no roman numerals or subtitle. Just Space Quest) Directed by J.J. Abrams.
A reboot where we see Roger Wilco attending janitorial school. Sludge Vohaul, responsible for Wilco's father's death, attacks the Star Confederation. Wilco, who stowed away on the SCS Booby Prize, manages to do something right and is made acting captain. After doing something else right purely by chance, he is made permanent captain of the Booby Prize. And there are lens flares. Lots of lens flares.

But Gabriel can't understand the cat - but does find a use for him! By petting the cat and collecting fur to make a mustache!

Gabriel Knight IV: The Schattenjaeger Show! Gabriel goes to Broadway and writes the story of his exploits. Help him deal with pompous directors, arrogant actors, and the press - who ask dumb questions like: "So you were, like, a werewolf, right? Does that mean you were barking mad?"
Gabriel gets points for handling them in a way that helps his show move forward ... and loses points for doing things like telling the press to sod off.
