DF's Day of the Tentacle is a classic

Tim Schaefer made a lot of these early in his career. Grim Fandango is probably my favorite in the genre

disco elysium was a great modern take on the genre. i don't really have any non-standard retro recs, although i remember finding the indiana jones ones fantastic but impossible to beat as a kid.

DE was great but idk if I'd call it a P&C adventure given all the skill checks/dice rolls

It's not but I guess it's got some of the same characteristic humor of those sorts of games

It's more a Planescape/NWN style wRPG

I guess the first one? it was basically trial and error. the slightest wrong move and you could get fucked up and die.

Or even worse, it was easy to do something wrong and then get to a stuck state in the game where you couldn't advance because you don't have some key item that you should have picked up earlier.
