I had played text adventures previously, but Kings Quest III was the first graphical adventure I had ever played, and is still my favorite in the series to this day. I loved the idea of collecting items to brew together to make spells (even if it was a copyright kind of thing), and the suspense of never knowing when Manannan would turn up.

Kings Quest IV is a close second, just a lot of great locations and puzzles in that game. I do appreciate the storyline of 6 as well, but I think I actually preferred the typing interface coming from a text adventure background - when they moved to mouse, it actually kind of took away a piece for me.
