I remember that puzzle! But inane as these puzzles were, you always got hints to solve them. Many times I slapped my forehead, exclaiming: 'Oh, of course!'. It's part of the charm, I think.
If you'd do a little more research you'll find out that there are still professional adventure games in development. TellTale, for example, is a new company founded by ex-LucasArts employees. They're working on 'Bone', a well known comic.
Other titles in development by various developers: Dreamfall, Indigo Prophecy, Paradise, Myst V, Around the World in 80 Days, Runaway 2, A Vampyre Story, etc...
