If you're in the mood for some gameplay that's more brain than
braun, Dreamfall is just the ticket. We were captivated by its
3 playable characters, tons of well-acted dialogue, huge explorable
environments and compelling Hollywood-worthy story. It's not
without its faults, but true adventure genre fans will do well
by Dreamfall. |

Harvest Moon: Magical Melody slipped into the adventure genre
simply because it's so hard to define. The series began as a
simple farming sim, but has grown beyond its roots. Players
in Magical Melody can choose their own sex for the first time
and among tending the animals and crops, now must locate 100
musical notes by either completing a variety of tasks or locating
them via exploration. |

If you ever wondered if video games could be considered "art",
the beautiful Japanese-stylized watercolor world of Okami could
certainly answer your question with an enthusiastic "Yes!".
We loved Okami for its beauty, gameplay and characters and enjoyed
this long adventure even more on subsequent replays when we
undertook many of the sidequests we had avoided on our first
playthrough. Okami is top notch. |

Although we embraced Wind Waker's cutesy cel-shaded direction,
Zelda fans have literally been waiting for this game since Ocarina
of Time ended. We weren't disappointed. It's not only the longest
adventure yet with a multitude of things to do, but it features
a second playable character, Wolf-Link, a plethora of dungeons
and lots of action. Combine this with the fact that it's a launch
title for a very unique game system and you've got a winner. |
