Adventure is a video game for the Atari 2600 video game console, released in ca. late 1979–1980. In the game, the player controls a square avatar whose quest is to explore an open world environment to find a magical chalice and return it to the golden castle. The game world is populated by roaming enemies: three dragons that can eat the avatar and a bat that randomly steals and hides items around the game world. Adventure introduced a number of innovative game elements to console games, including a playing area that spanned several different screens and enemies that continued to move even when not displayed on the screen.
