For example, the first time I played KQ7 I had to restart the game from the beginning of Chapter IV because I couldn't finish Chapter III due to a bug.

I didn't know this was possible... I thought that Manannan would always appear and kill you if you tried to board the ship without turning him into a cat.

I don't remember exactly... I played King's Quest I for the first time about 25 years ago :D

That isn't a dead end, you can put back the item in the tank. You even get +5 points in the process (+25 for picking it up -20 for putting it back).

True, there are some minor dead ends also in SQIV. You can miss a few time travel codes. At least you don't need to replay the whole game in that case - just restore a previously saved game, get the...

One thing I haven't seen mentioned in the "dead ends" vs. "no dead ends" discussion:
- LucasArts adventures up to Indy3 in 1990 featured dead ends like Sierra adventures.
- KQV released in 1990 is...

The point is that in most cases there's isn't any meaningful consequence to death in adventure games anyway, since you can always restore and try again.
In an arcade game, where the main skill...

I'm not bothered too much by sequences where you have to react fast to avoid deat; I find unavoidable deaths caused by random events much more annoying.

That's actually how I completed the CGA KQI 20+ years ago - I couldn't figure out how to switch floppies to save games, so I always played the game in a single session. Imagine the fun when you slip...
