I always found the c64 colour palette disappointing, over all c64 games looked good and sounded great but, for adventure games nothing could beat a Tandy 1000 computer with 16 colour enhanced CGA graphics and 3 voice digital sound. When games used the enhanced 16 colour palette they looked really great (e.g. Sierra games).
Admittedly the Tandy 1000's didn't have sprites so they weren't great at action games.
