The sequel Dreamfall blew me away, I loved that game, it's in my top 20. But I thoroughly enjoyed TLJ as well, in spite of some ludicrous puzzles.

Yes, Zork Grand Inquisitor is a must-play, such a fun game! The humor is not at all like Sam&Max, DoTT, MI c.s. which is a relief, because there's no shortage of that type of adventure. And since nobody has recommended The Last Express I will. Well-integrated puzzles, if you can call them that, cause it's really more about understanding what's going on and then doing the right thing. Top game.

PS: My award for the most terrible puzzle ever goes to "finding a lemon" in Tunguska. That one is not just ridiculous and farfetched in the extreme (given Tunguska's more or less realistic setting), I also felt sort of offended that the developers made me do something that unethical.
