An [[Atari 2600]] classic from 1979, ''Adventure'' is considered the [[Trope Makers]] for [[Action Adventure]] games.


An [[Evil Sorceror|evil magician]] ([[The Ghost|who never actually appears in the game]]) has stolen [[MacGuffin|the Enchanted Chalice]] and [[Excuse Plot|hidden it]] somewhere in the Kingdom. You have to find it and return it to the Gold Castle. Along the way, you will face three [[Our Dragons Are Different|dragons]], confusing [[The Maze|asymmetric mazes]], and a bat that steals your items. Your one-item inventory can include a sword, a bridge (for short-cutting the mazes), one of the keys to the three castles, a magnet (to attract other items, right through walls), the Chalice, a dot (for unlocking an [[Easter Egg]]), and, for short periods of time, the bat. The Kingdom consists of the Gold Castle (where you start), a maze leading to the Black Castle, a catacomb leading to the White Castle, and a few other rooms. Inside the Black and White castles are more mazes and catacombs.
