Definition: Adventure is a genre of video game that involves looking for clues and collecting inventory items in order to solve puzzles and fill out the storyline.
Some adventure games are simply collections of puzzles loosely strung together by a theme or narrative (in which case, they may really be puzzlers disguised as adventure games), while others have puzzles and problems more completely integrated into the setting with the revelation of the story being to primary focus.
