SCI Sierra On-Line Japanese Games

Sierra On-Line released a few games in Japan, fully translated to Japanese.

The 3.25" 1.2MB floppies (Space Quest 4, King's Quest 5) are only readable on PC using special floppy drives, that support Mode 3. For example the Sony USB PCGA-UFD5. Floppies will still not just work in Windows, you will probably need [RawWrite for Windows] and finally [DiskExplorer] to extract the files from the images.

The 5.25" floppies (Quest for Glory 1, Police Quest 2) however can be read using a regular PC 5.25" floppy drive.
