I seem to remember one of the King's Quest games where, when you entered a certain area, you could see a mouse being chased by a cat, and if you didn't shoo the cat away intime, it would eat the mouse. If you did chase him away, later in the game when the protagonist was tied up, the mouse would come and chew through your ropes. If you didn't save the mouse (or didn't even NOTICE the mouse), you were done for.
Games like that almost NEEDED strategy guides to complete. Otherwise, they were simply maddening.
