Default Adventure Game Series

I was just wondering if people could list Adventure Games that have more than one part and what they are called? I hate the feeling of accidently playing a sequel (and sometimes even a remake) when there's a game before it that I didn't know about. I'd purchased 'Day of the Tentacle' years ago and didn't even know about 'Maniac Mansion' until after I'd reached Ed's computer ingame. I wish I'd played it before-hand.

Example of complete series list:

Gabriel Knight - Sins of the Fathers
Gabriel Knight 2 - The Beast Within
Gabriel Knight 3 - (Can't actually remember what it's called)

A list of EGA, VGA, and remakes are also appreciated.

And from reading these threads, I'm assuming that 'Dreamfall' is the sequel to 'The Longest Journey'? Or am I all mixed up?

Gabriel Knight 3 is Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned.

You are correct in saying Dreamfall is the sequel to The Longest Journey.

Softporn (the text adventure that preceded Larry at Sierra, has the same basic storyline of the first game)

Leisure Suit Larry 1: In the Land of the Lounge Lizards

LSL Goes Looking for Love (In Several Wrong Places)

LSL 3: Passionate Patti in Pursuit of the Pulsating Pectorals!

LSL5: Passionate Patti Does a Little Undercover Work

LSL6: Shape Up or Slip Out!

LSL7: Love for Sail!

(There were also The Laffer Utilities, Leisure Suit Larry's Casino, LSL Pinball and LSL: Magna Cum Laude, but none are really considered part of the adventure "series", but as stand-alone products...)

No, there was also a Kyrandia 3, starring the villain of the first game as the protagonist.

Thank you for the lists! These are exactly what I was looking for!

Oops, I'd accidently played Tex Murphy:Overseer without playing any of the others before it.

Was it only a rumour that there's a Space Quest 7?

Off topic: No not just a rumor, SQ7 was cancelled by Sierra

Uru wasn't actually part of the 'main' Myst series, which is why subsequent games were called 'Myst IV' and 'Myst V' rather than 'Myst V' and 'Myst VI'. Uru was a spin-off which became a series in its own right (can't remember what order the games came in, though).
