One of the most difficult things I've ever had to do in a game...is make my way down Sierra's patented windy twisty path (TM) in Kings Quest 3. Most of the Quest games had some 'fall to your doom if you screw up' area like that, but that's the only one I can remember that you had to negotiate repeatedly.

They toned it down a bit in the later games. I remember seeing the winding path to the castle in KQ IV and groaning, then didn't have to walk up the thing at all.

Jane's Longbow. All it needs is new engine so it runs on modern systems, that would be awesome.

Another pair I would love to see would be some classic Microprose games.. Airborne Rangers and Sword of the Samurai

I would kill to have those 2 games reinvented.
