Contrary to popular belief, the text-based adventure game is alive and well. There's still plenty of "interactive fiction" in the form of HTML-based games, standard text based ones, Z-Code story files (Infocom's format, except modern stories are available), etc. Not to mention various graphical-based adventure games, like Sam and Max, Indigo Prophecy, Heavy Rain, Monkey Island, Myst, etc.
