Adventure · Steam genre shortlist
Games whose merged metadata includes the Adventure genre. Rows come from the same union of Steam app ids as our other tools (multiplayer discovery seed, save-path catalog, franchise hubs) plus Steam Store fields when the catalog build could reach the API; otherwise offline titles and heuristics.
Sorted by Metacritic when present, then by Steam app id and title.
How we built this list
