I would agree with you on that. Those are my favorites as well. The game format of the original MouseAdventure just dosen't really lend itself to it (where as The Enchanted Race is all about continuing your quest). Original MouseAdventure Quests are usually two part quests in format. Do a puzzle, get a question, answer or find some information, do something with that information, answer. We did do more of a multi-part thing with E Quest 2, but that was really it.
I don't know if you've ever played "3 in three" or "The Fools Errand". They are older computer puzzle games where, as you completed puzzles, others would open up, based on your earlier answers.
We have kicked around ideas on such a game.
