I might be in the minority here but to me the worst one is the "Monkey Wrench’ in Monkey Island.

Although, it is funny in English.

What’s yours?

    Oh yes, how does it run on a modern machine? I’d like to play it again but not sure if my old disc would still work.

    And yes, totally agree. Today I wouldn’t have that patience anymore. I think such a hard puzzle would be a gamestopper for me now.

      Well, there’s quite a few websites that let you play this and many other fairly-large games through your browser. (Lucas-Arts and others)

      Google (etc) got you!

      Still myself-- being pretty middle-aged at this point, more and more I’m perfectly happy these days to the watch-though play-throughs…

      https://scummvm.org/ - runs most not-horrendously-obscure adventure games on basically any system. Essentially just have the game files somewhere and add that directory as a game in scummvm. boosh, done.

      Scummvm works brilliantly with lucasarts and sierra games (edit: though, speedrunners might have some issues with it). It hasn’t been terribly long since I played the dig with it.

        Oh right, thank you for reminding me, I had seen it in this post but then forgot about it again. D’oh!
