Adventure

Writing » Genre » Adventure

Adventure is a genre of video game typified by exploration, puzzle-solving, interaction with game characters, and a focus on narrative rather than reflex-based challenges. The vast majority of adventure games are computer games, though console-based adventure games are not unheard of. Unlike many other game genres, the adventure genre's focus on story allows it to draw heavily from other narrative-based art forms, such as literature and film. Adventure games encompass a wide variety of literary genres, including fantasy, science fiction, mystery, horror, and comedy. Notable adventure games include Zork, King's Quest, The Secret of Monkey Island, and Myst.

Welcome to Ridge, the only magical town in all of New England. And for a good reason, because, um, what would /you/ do if you saw your neighbor tossing fireballs up and down the street? With all the mages in the area holed up in one little town, there's a lot of loose magic -- meaning, yes, your parking space did just scream at you, better hope it didn't eat your car. And then there's the Nightstalkers -- but we won't go into that. Wouldn't want to scare you off, right?
