Gameplay
Adventure is a text-based game lacking any graphical elements. The game proceeds based upon the player's decisions when faced after each question. Due to its decision-based gaming model, each adventure can be played multiple times producing unique endings based upon the decision sequence the player chooses on each attempt.
