As for me, Sierra games are the libs, and Lucasarts are the tanks. As in, Sierra games suck, Lucasarst games are potentially good!

Lucas Arts is my personal favorite, though a lot of Sierra games are decent too.

Haven't played either. Which one has the less-bullshit puzzles?

King's Quest III has a twisty mountain path that you have to walk up with shitty unresponsive controls and twitchy hitboxes for the tiles that cause you to fall to your death, and bits of it are obscured by foreground terrain. This bullshit right here: https://lparchive.org/Kings-Quest-III/Update%2003/9-03-007.gif

Also, it's timed.

LucasArts and it's not even close.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion 2: Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max Hit the Road...all Lucasarts gold.

They really figured out a good way to use the format to tell interesting stories and have fun puzzles involved. Full Throttle and Grim Fandango are also worth mentioning from the later years.

You know that game is a work of fiction because you get a better score for not killing suspects.

Chuds tried to reboot it in a new police swat game that looks bad and stupid and misses the point of the original games. Typical for G*mers.
