My favorite thing on the internet is Homestarrunner.com. I love everything that has come out of it (even Marzipan's Answering Machine!) and am clearly biased in my rating, but I'd argue Peasant's Quest is the most accessible thing The Brothers Chaps ever made for non-fans. Essentially, you don't have to be a fan of Homestar or Strong Bad to enjoy this.

If it wasn't clear from the visuals, Peasant's Quest is a tribute to King's Quest, and it functions quite similarly. It's not terribly long, but not short at all for a Flash game. You can comfortably finish it in an hour or two depending on how thorough you want to be.

It is also absolutely hilarious.

If you're a fan of classic King's Quest, and the idea of a reverent satire appeals to you, check out Peasant's Quest when you've got some free time.
