The C64 was host to the best version of Lucasfilm's Labyrinth - essentially an early glimpse of what was to come with Scumm - also Maniac Mansion and Zak McKraken were developed initially for the C64.
The C64 was also the platform Lucasfilm developed Habitat for - arguably the first MMO.
The C64 may have been better at certain things than others, but it's ubiquity and incredible value meant that it was instrumental in enabling whole new genres of gaming.
