TWD actually had one or two puzzles, but I don’t think there were any in the second season. TWAU had one. Don’t know about GOT or Borderlands as I haven’t played those.
Duckman: Can you believe it? Five hundred bucks for a parking ticket?
Cornfed Pig: You parked in a handicapped zone.
Duckman: Who cares? Nobody parks there anyway, except for the people who are supposed to park there and, hell, I can outrun them anytime.

Don’t know if they fit your adventure game criteria…
I think these are real casual adventures,one can make random choices without thinking and get the same story anyway.

Due to replies both are casuals.I think without puzzle solving dynamics what’s left
is always a casual experience.

So you either want a very long list of casuals or your question was rhetorical.
I don’t think he meant casual as in the genre Causal Games, but instead as in a casual experiences or as the opposite of hardcore.
Anyway I personally don’t consider adventure games without puzzles to be adventure games at all, so for me this whole thread is an oxymoron.

I think adventures without puzzles means accessible for everyone,i dont see self-contradiction here but if you think casual gameplay makes them non adventures that may sound oxymoron.

I was waiting for someone to drop that flamebait. Took longer than I expected, TBH.

I actually had something similar typed in when the thread was fresh, but decided not to post it 
Now my opinion is represented, and I’m in the clear, heh

I’m only guessing, but I think Iznogood thinks that the title of the thread, Adventure games without puzzles, is the oxymoron.
If you go down to the bottom of this page and click on About, you will read the following in the first paragraph:
Adventure Gamers is the largest English-language website devoted to coverage of the adventure game genre. We cover computer and video games that focus on puzzle solving within a narrative framework.
I’m with Iz on this one. A game without puzzles may be some sort of game, but it isn’t an adventure game.
For whom the games toll,
they toll for thee.
