Adventure

Adventure games have defined some of gaming's greatest moments - from the point-and-click mysteries of the 1980s to the sprawling open-world epics of today. The genre is built on one core idea: putting the player in the role of an explorer, problem-solver, or hero navigating a world full of discovery. Whether that world is a haunted island, an alien planet, or a fantasy kingdom, adventure games make exploration the reward.

The genre spans an enormous range of styles. Narrative adventure games like Life is Strange and Disco Elysium prioritize story and player choice above all else. Action-adventure titles like The Legend of Zelda and Uncharted blend combat with exploration and puzzle-solving. Point-and-click classics like Monkey Island and modern successors like Pentiment keep the focus on wit, dialogue, and environmental storytelling.

What makes a great adventure game is a sense of place - worlds that feel alive, characters worth caring about, and the constant promise that something interesting is just around the corner.
