Thumbs up! Adventure is still my favourite genre, including PC! I feel really miserable in this fancy 3D world we're having these days... 
Some comments:
Killing the player is fun! :D When I wrote my adventures, first I tought about only blocking the path, but then I realized that the possible death (and restart) adds to the tension...  To tell you the truth, I was greatly influenced by the adventures of István Rátkai. (His games had also been converted to the +4). Later, on PC I noticed that feeling "safe" (no deaths) in adventure games can be quite relaxing, thus raising the game experience. Also, an element of humor in the game can compensate the pain of dying in games (e. g. Legend of Kyrandia trilogy). I'd really like to see a vote on the question...
