Hunting for treasure and artifacts in the ruins of an ancient lost city. Solving complex puzzles to open the doors to a secret passage. Discovering the truth about a legendary figure from history. Fans of adventure video games love these activities and many more. But what is the true story behind today's popular action adventure games? Are the ancient cities in these games real or inspired by real locations? What kind of treasure has been found in actual ancient ruins? What type of dangers do treasure hunters face in the real world? Compare true exploration of ancient cities to today's popular video games and learn if they are portrayed accurately, or if the games twist the truth to create a more exciting game-playing experience. The Capstone Interactive edition comes with simultaneous access for every student in your school and includes read aloud audio recorded by professional voice over artists.

The genre of adventure games is frequently overlooked. Lacking the constantly-evolving graphics and graphic violence of their counterparts in first-person and third-person shooters or role-playing games, they are often marketed to and beloved by players outside of mainstream game communities. While often forgotten by both the industry and academia, adventure games have had (and continue to have) a surprisingly wide influence on contemporary games, in categories including walking simulators, hidden object games, visual novels, and bestselling titles from companies like Telltale and Campo Santo. In this examination of heirs to the genre's legacy, the authors examine the genre from multiple perspectives, connecting technical analysis with critical commentary and social context. This will be the first book to consider this important genre from a comprehensive and transdisciplinary perspective. Drawing upon methods from platform studies, software studies, media studies, and literary studies, they reveal the genre's ludic and narrative origins and patterns, where character (and the player's embodiment of a character) is essential to the experience of play and the choices within a game. A deep structural analysis of adventure games also uncovers an unsteady balance between sometimes contradictory elements of story, exploration, and puzzles: with different games and creators employing a multitude of different solutions to resolving this tension.
