Mickey's Space Adventure is a graphical adventure game created by Al Lowe (of "Leisure Suit Larry" fame) in the mid 80's. It was of course licensed by Disney, and includes none of the bawdy humor that characterizes the Larry series of games! The story involves Mickey and Pluto discovering a space ship and flying off for adventure after being given a quest. Aimed at young children who at least at reading age, the player chooses actions to perform from sets of verbs and nouns presented at the bottom of each scene. This makes figuring out what to do more of a process of discovery (or random guessing) rather than discerning exactly what to do and what words to type.
