10. Shadow of Destiny
9. Broken Sword 1: shadow of the templars
8. Curse of Monkey Island
7. King's Quest VI
6. Day of the Tentacle
5. Secret of Monkey Island
4. Grim Fandango
3. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
2. Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge
1. Gabriel Knight 1: Sins of the Fathers

This was really hard, except for no. 1; I played GK1 for the first time +/-2 years ago (most others when they appeared), and it still looks beautiful, and the story is superb.
Shadow of Destiny was a surprise, I enjoyed it far more than other +/-recent games such as Syberia, Runaway etc... It was quite original because of the multiple endings, had its own style... Maybe it was quite short... (I was doubting about putting the longest journey on 10, which was quite lengthy , but to be honest I forgot so much about that game, I think it was just too long...)

This is really fun! Someone should really put up a www.ymdb.com style server for adventure games so we could keep a constant TOP100 list, find other users with similar tastes in adventures etc.!

Always a tough question. Ask me tomorrow and you'll probably get a totally different response. Well, except for places 1 and 2, those are head and shoulders above the rest.

1. Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned
2. Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within
3. Leisure Suit Larry 3
4. Sam 'n Max Hit the Road
5. Gabriel Knight 1
6. Broken Sword 1
7. King's Quest VI
8. The Longest Journey
9. Discworld 1
10. Zork Grand Inquisitor

Games that could have made the list any other day: Leisure Suit Larry 7, King's Quest IV, Torin's Passage, Broken Sword 2, Blackstone Chronicles, Gold Rush, Largo Winch: Empire Under Threat, The Curse of Monkey Island, Rama, Sanitarium and maybe (have to finish it first) Voyage.

EDIT: Thought I'd just turn these around from 10-1 to 1-10. Bit clearer that way.
