The VGA remake of the first Quest for Glory would have to be my favorite game in the whole point and click genre. I haven't really liked many other adventure games but Quest for Glory mixes RPG elements with point and click adventure and it's wonderful. Especially for someone like me who enjoys RPGs far more than adventure games. You can pick one of three classes at the beginning; fighter, mage, or thief. This choice will determine how you'll be overcoming many of the obstacles in the game. It also adds a lot of replay to the game since you can go through it again with a different class to change things up. The remake still looks good today and has a great intuitive interface. The combat is pretty simple but I felt the later games made it too awkward to control. This first game had the right idea. Like most Sierra games Quest for Glory doesn't take itself very seriously and is often quite funny--which I like. I've played a lot of point and click adventures but I still go back to play through Quest for Glory to this day and for me that proves it's still one of the very best this genre has to offer.
