Non-adventure games
Adventure games are great, but what if you want to add a little variety to your gaming diet? The following titles have been selected from other genres based on their potential appeal to adventure gamers. Beware though: most of them involve a lot of action, so skip these suggestions if that isn't your thing!

BioShock An RPG/shooter set in a dystopian underwater society. The art deco architecture and '60s-style propaganda posters make this world a joy to explore.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay
Mass Effect Xbox 360 roleplaying game from BioWare. The extremely high-quality cinematic dialog sequences should be of great interest to adventure gamers.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay
Portal A physics-based puzzle game with a surprisingly compelling and hilarious story. Get it as part of The Orange Box, or buy separately on Steam.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay, Steam
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Expect a huge open-ended playing area rendered in gorgeous detail. Non-player characters eat, sleep, and complete goals all on their own, giving a great sense of realism. Highly recommended for those who enjoy story and exploration.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay
Assassin's Creed While suffering a little from being overhyped, this Xbox 360 game still delivers a densely populated and lively game world. Be warned though, it is heavy on combat and acrobatics.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords Imagine a 'match the colors' puzzle game mashed up with an RPG, and you have successfully imagined Puzzle Quest. Addictive combination of puzzling and stat-building. Available on DS, Wii, PS2, PSP and Xbox Live Arcade.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay, Xbox LIVE Arcade
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass This Zelda game for the Nintendo DS is being touted as one of the most accessible and entertaining Zelda games yet.	Amazon UK, Amazon US, eBay
