Not only are there so many adventure games out there, there are so many TYPES of adventure games out there! How do you know whether you're looking at a Deduction Game vs a Horror Game? A Puzzle Adventure Game vs an Escape Room Game? A Point and Click Game vs a Text Parser Game? Well, okay, you should probably be able to figure that last one out for yourself... but for everything ELSE, your old pals Matt Aukamp and PushingUpRoses are here! 

In the first of a 3-part series, we not only set straight the different subgenres of "Adventure Game," we also reccomend our favorites of each.

And Matt played Wavetale finally.
