* BellyDancer: The profession of the slinky and seductive Nawar, one of the possible love interests for the Hero. The zaftig bar tender/former harem girl Budar also does this in the fifth game, as does the Hero himself (the comedic male version of the trope). In the second game, the Hero's Katta friend Shema dances in the inn owned by her and her husband.

Added Event Driven Clock aversion from its page
Added DiffLines:
* EventDrivenClock: {{Averted}}. Most games have several timed events that occur a fixed number of days after the start. (Elementals and caravans in ''II'', Igor's disappearance in ''IV'', scheduled competitions, poisonings and assassinations in ''V'', etc.) Though the games are rather relaxed in that regard -- the player either has time to prepare, gets advance warnings, or has 3-7 days to figure out what to do. Still, timed disasters [[PermanentlyMissableContent lock portions of the game]] or end the game if the player does nothing. Unrelated to that, the games have a day-night cycle, which determines what the hero can do and who he can encounter.

One series that differed a bit from this formula, however, was the ''Quest for Glory'' series (originally called Hero's Quest, before trademark issues with Milton Bradley resulted in them changing the name), which instead used a [[GenreMashup mashup]] of Adventure and RPG. ''Quest for Glory'' stood out both in this unique mix and how it contributed to significantly more logical and fair gameplay than the other Sierra adventure games. But that was not everything; the games also were a brilliant (and hilarious) AffectionateParody of the adventure genre and had a very strong continuity despite being spread out over the course of nine years.

Added DiffLines:
* MinmaxersDelight: In the first game, class doesn't matter too much in game unless you're dedicated to ScoringPoints, but it does determine your starting abilities, building your skills is easily done within the game, but adding skills from other classes is expensive in starting points and can ''only'' be done at start. The Thief has two missing skills: Magic and Parry. They can take Magic and Parry out of class and buy almost all of the spells (and get the one spell they're missing in the second game), and since the first game has [[TakeYourTime no time limit]], they have all the time in the world to practice their skills and spells up to 100. In later games, they can choose whatever class they want and will often be better at it. And since the first game has no Honor system, their actions in Spielburg have no bearing on whether they can become Paladins in the second.

*** In the magic shop in Quest for Glory II, there is a hand puppet resembling [[VideoGame/KingsQuestIV Rosella]], and some [[VideoGame/SpaceQuestIII Orats-on-a-Stick]]. In the WIT, you are quick to note Erana's resemblance to [[VideoGame/KingsQuestIV Genesta]] as well, and to note that [[VideoGame/ConquestsOfCamelot Merlin]] looks much different. The astrologer has a model of a planetary system from VideoGame/SpaceQuest, and apparently [[VideoGame/ConquestsOfCamelot King Arthur]] ([[VideoGame/KingsQuestV King Graham]] in the fan remake) died of thirst in the desert (though that turns out to be just a mirage).
