Let's see...

I remember seeing ads for:

Space Quest III
Spirit of Excalibur

But then support for the platform disappeared before they were
complete.  I fired off an angry letter to Sierra On-line
for abandoning the platform after seeing SQ3 ads on the back of
Compute magazine for several months.  It didn't do much good, but it
was cathartic.

There was another, but I'm not too sure on the name. I think
it was something like Faerie Tale Adventure.  I remember seeing
it demoed on an Amiga.  Seemed like pretty cool fantasy adventure game
or RPG with kind of a 3D perspective view.  The publisher
was Microllusions.

I was eagerly anticipating all these titles, but... <sigh>
