They're humorous and even have a built-in generous hint system for when you get stuck (no need to GameFaqs it). What's nice is that the…

Phantasmagoria, 7th Guest, the previous Tex Murphy Games, and of course Wing Commander 3, 4, and 5. If you liked Gabriel Knight 2 (and why wouldn't you??), you'll likely enjoy these games as well.
