Bloody hell these are impossible! Good choice of titles that can't be cracked in the usual ways.

I've got the phrase "hairy oak buns" going round my head like a mantra.

All correct sofa, and number of words in the title added to the list

1: Squibs Cost Ferret = BC's Quest for Tires (Ersh)
2: Breath Bollix Terror = Orbix The Terrorball (redballoon)
3: Making A Sock (2)
4: Nooses of Eddy (3)
5: A Noun or Request = Nonterraqueous (Joefish)
6: Island La Soil (3)
7: Then Add A Shiny Hotdog (4)
8: Brittle Blubber = Tribble Trubble (Joefish)
9: Bad Ad Baa Booby = Yabba Dabba Doo! (Joefish)
10: Fag Urine Yuk = Yie Ar Kung-Fu (Rorthron)
11: Sadly News = Dawnssley (Joefish)
12: Reshaping Fog (2)
13: Taken Ill = Kentilla (Rorthron)
14: Hairy Oak Buns (2)
15: Malta Cuts (2)

The last 4 are adventure games

Don't know the game but it sounds Star-Trekky... but I think that should be 'Maru'. It's in the game database though...

Oof! Glad you put me out of my misery. I would never have got that, even though someone recommended it to me on this very forum (I never got round to playing it).
