Adventure games
Adventure games are based on a storyline to drive you through the game and a specific character as a protagonist of the game. Gameplay mostly consists of exploration and puzzle solving. Playing an Adventure game you will encounter a lot of locked doors, secret messages and areas that can only be accessed through puzzle solving. Although sometimes puzzles can be a bit shady they are what advances you further in the story or unlocks secrets. Adventure games focus on single-player gameplay and as such they are a story-driven experience. You are very likely to be cast into mystic, exotic, fantastic or other non-existant environments. There isn’t much of a character growth in Adventure games (if any). Rather you will be solving mysteries or quests, and trying to connect loose ends into one story. The main goal of any Adventure game is pretty simple: complete the story and solve the required quests.
