Need help remembering the names of 2 old adventure games!

Hi!

I am looking for 2 adventure games that I used to play when I was young (1991-1998) but I can't remember their names.

The first one was about an american guy, probably owner of a museum - someone steals something from the museum (I also remember a snake being involved) and he has to travel around the world. Only place I remember he went to is probably Nepal?

The second one is more of a fantasy one, the characters are human-like but with big noses and funky hair. The main character is a blonde guy with spiky hair who is in a strange city, and in some way he has to reach the top of the city and go in some protected area. It's kind of a comedy game, it's all a bit crazy (neon lights, posters of strange girls and stuff). It was probably about someone who took control of the city and made it bad or something...

If any of them ring a bell, please let me know!

Thanks!

I can't believe this, that's right! Thank you! I've been looking for days for the titles of these 2 games, and I got both of them in less than an hour!

Thanks so much guys, you made my day!

Install a XP VMWare client and you can most probably the game within it.
This way I managed to run Desperate Housewives.
is possible to run this game on Win7 but it's not possible to get through the part with the pokernight-bug (it's actually a win7 incompatible game)
And no, my GF wanted to play that game, not me, I only found the solution to get pass that stupid bug

I have original CDROM.and this game is only run with CDROM.and its difficult for run that with any emulators.

Last year I replayed Master Lu with XP + DOSBox and it worked perfectly. I suggest you read check the support for Master Lu on the DosBox official website. There might be some information about specific settings that make it work.
