I forgot about the Kyrandia series too.  Really fun games heavily inspired by King's Quest.

I really enjoyed The Longest Journey and need to play the Syberia series.

Syberia is on xbox lol that's nice I think. Did you ever play sanitarium? That's really a heavywieght puncher.

I used to enjoy Police Quest IV/4 and Police Quest V/5.

None seem to talk about any of the "Police Quest" Series on the PC. I can tell you I really liked the 4th one, but my disc was scratched and I never finished Police Quest IV because of it.  In Police Quest 4 you walk around as a crime scene investigator  clicking on everything waiting if what you click on would actually trigger an event. It's got some RPG elements where you occasionally meet and talk to people, but I think if you do the wrong thing "just like in all Police Quest series games for PC" you get Game Over events and forces you to start over to the beginning of the game.

Police Quest 5 is a SWAT simulator, with vary strict rules and stupid random deaths. With cut scenes that make absolute NO scene as the game goes on, sometimes if you shoot a wall or use a wrong object in any of the missions somehow you die, or someone else dies and you get game over though. I remember shooting any random wall and all of a sudden I killed an elder women in a living room. but the cut scene made no scene at all to me because if you do the right thing the women is actually in the bathroom not the living room . It comes with a HUGE manual. If you don't read it you won't know how To play. Police Quest 5 is being a SWAT simulator. you will need real life proper procedure in everything you do. or else you have to start from the beginning

Here’s a few no one has mentioned:

Prisoner of Ice - (PC) an alien space craft crash lands in the arctic. A submarine crates it and, while enroute to a military installation, all hell breaks loose. Aliens, submarines, and time travel. What’s not to love?

Starship Titanic - (PC) Douglas Adams helped produce it (but did not write it). It’s a quirky sci-fi point n click.

Thimbleweed  Park - (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch) a love letter to Maniac Mansion and Day of the Tentacle

Burn Cycle - (PC & CDi) no I’m not kidding there was a good game on CDi. This was a cyberpunk thriller.

While I wont argue that it is the best I will say that The Dig story line blew my mind when I was a kid.
