Count me in as another person on the same level of nostalgia for old games and especially Sierra games as you and the parent comments.. I found the same thing you did on the experience. There are games from that era that are still fun, but you really have to dig. I run emulators and sort through them, and it's no surprise no one is trying to repackage and sell most of them. No one would buy them. The IP is only valuable for respins. One thing worth noting, I found the more simple the games were, the better they aged. There was a time in the 90s when Atari 2600 games felt useless, now I'm finding their simple arcade action aged better than genres that tried to do more. Adventure games themselves are timeless because they're at their core, puzzle-oriented storybooks. My favorite by far is Hero's Quest / Quest for Glory. Those were the crown jewel of the Sierra lineup. The original creators are back at it, and recently released Hero-U (it's on Steam and GOG). I've only played it a bit, but it seems like as good as you can do to bring a traditional adventure game into 2019. Hero-U is definitely worth checking out for any old Sierra-head!
