苹果iPhone和iPad确实组成了优秀的冒险游戏平台。iOS设备的大容量存储器和触摸屏，再加上相对低廉的游戏售价和合理的开发成本，使我们有机会玩到不只是出色的，甚至是创意的游戏。以下是绝对不容错过的10款冒险游戏：

《Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery》

一款在多个平台上获得成功的独立游戏。这款创新游戏在iOS上发表了数字艺术的宣言。有兴趣了？好吧，你应该有兴趣。《Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery》确实是一款少见的游戏，它将点击式操作和简单的战斗系统互相结合，将节奏良好的探索内容和大量实验性的设想融为一体。在艺术方面，极具风格的画面和悦耳动听的音乐，必定让玩家耳目一新。

《机械迷城》（Machinarium）

Amanita Design的代表作，另一款精美绝伦的冒险游戏。在交互式叙述中，本作融合了难度适中的谜题、感人的剧情和不可多得的奇思妙想。玩家帮助小机器人探索一座近乎荒废的的城市。在这款获奖游戏中，虽然情节透露着隐隐的不祥之感，但能够拉伸的机器人还是让人觉得相当可爱。

《断剑:导演剪辑版》（Broken Sword：Director’s Cut）

这款经典的冒险游戏标志着Revolution公司已经制作出一款突破了纯粹的触摸画面、界面和声音的游戏。额外的场景和新谜题，为已经相当精彩的冒险增加了新的游戏价值。关于神秘事件、圣殿骑士和阴谋诡计的剧情，相当有趣的谜题，精致的卡通画面和直观的界面，你一定迫不及待地想玩玩这款触屏游戏了吧？

《钢铁天空下》（Beneath a Steel Sky）

又一款Revolution公司的杰作，已经升级为iOS的触屏游戏。这款罕见的游戏采用了视觉天才Dave Gibbons的《守望者》的漫画风格。精美的画面搭配反乌托邦的背景、诙谐的对白、独特的机器伙伴和创意的谜题，这些都可以帮你打发掉公交车上的无聊时间。

《梦境：逃离》（Dream:scape）

与其说它是一款冒险游戏，不如说是一款来世探索游戏。《Dream:scape》的世界是另一个时空，玩家扮演一个昏迷的人（或者说已经死了？）。玩家要帮助这位叫作Wilson的人重拾人生记忆、揭开他的秘密、克服困难和解决一些基本的谜题。

《猴岛2特别版：LeChuck的复仇》（Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge）

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition(from indiegames)

《猴岛2》是传奇游戏设计师Ron Gilbert制作的最好的冒险游戏、最伟大的杰作。你应该已经知道这款游戏多么漂亮、有趣、创新，这是该系列一贯的优点。本作的画面更加精致，还换上了新的UI，简直是梦幻之作。《猴岛》的配音表现突出，另外，Ron Gilbert、Tim Schafer和Dave Grossman提供了惊人的开发解说内容。

《猴岛传说》（Tales of Monkey Island）

Tales of Monkey Island(from indiegames)

虽然与前两款《猴子岛》游戏不能相比，但同样这是Telltale公司至今为止最优秀最有趣的作品之一，并且一系列插幕式的冒险活动多次超越《逃离猴岛》。另外，该游戏的第一节是免费玩的。幽默的剧情、异国风情的场景和富有想象力的谜题，是这款游戏的魅力所在。

《魔法师西蒙》（Simon the Sorcerer）

Simon the Sorcerer(from indiegames)

本作融合了传统的英式幽默和老式冒险游戏玩法。玩家扮演主人公西蒙穿过衣柜进入一个可笑的幻想世界，在那里，有数不尽的冒险经历等着玩家。玩这款游戏，横向思维能力很重要。

《HECTOR: Badge of Carnage Ep1》

HECTOR: Badge of Carnage Ep1(from indiegames)

这大约是App Store上能看到最富嘲讽意味的冒险游戏了，鲜有游戏能这么公开地讽刺社会。这款游戏有趣、好看，但对比较年轻的玩家来说，有一点困难。另外，它确实非常非常粗鲁。

Frotz

好吧，我承认我欺骗大家了，这不是游戏，而是一个程序，但你确实应该安装Frotz。本程序可免费下载，装载了大量好游戏（包括恐怖杰作《锚头城》），允许下载更多文字冒险游戏，这是边走路边玩文字冒险游戏的最好方法。你的iPad我想应该相当便携了，特别是跟Osborne 1相比（游戏邦注：Osborne 1是一部在商业上获得成功的微型计算机，体积仍然比较庞大）。（本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译，拒绝任何不保留版权的转载，如需转载请联系：游戏邦）

Feature: 10 iOS Adventure Games You Must Play

by Konstantinos Dimopoulos / Gnome

Apple’s iPhone and especially those amazing (and rather expensive) iPads truly make for an excellent adventure gaming platform that’s very indie friendly indeed. The large memory and multi-touch screen of the iOS devices, combined with the low asking prices and reasonable development costs have already provided us with more than a few excellent and at times innovative takes on the genre. Here are the 10 adventure games you really shouldn’t miss:

Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP

A huge indie hit on numerous platforms and a digital art manifesto all wrapped up in one innovative game that started its life on iOS. Intrigued? Well, you should be, for Superbrothers: Sword & Sorcery is a rare game indeed, that effortlessly combines point-and-click gaming with simple combat mechanics, well-paced exploration and a ton of highly experimental ideas. It’s artistically impressive too, what with its incredibly stylized visuals and downright brilliant soundtrack.

Machinarium

The magnum opus of Amanita Design and another stunningly beautiful adventure with some properly taxing puzzles, a touching story and some excellent ideas on interactive storytelling. Help a small robot explore an almost dystopian city and unravel an ominous plot in this award-winning, robot-stretching and at times incredibly cute game.

Broken Sword: Director’s Cut

In this classic adventure remake Revolution has gone beyond merely touching-up the graphics, interface and sounds. It has added extra scenes and new puzzles, and actually managed to add gaming value to an already fantastic adventure. In case you were wondering, it’s a tale of mystery, Templars, conspiracies and lovely humorous touches, that sports some really good puzzles, stunning cartoon graphics and an intuitive interface.

Beneath a Steel Sky: Remastered

Another Revolution offering that has been updated for the iOS point-and-click (or, well, touch-and-touch) crowd and a rare game that takes advantage of the visual talents of Dave Gibbons of Watchmen fame. Beautiful graphics, a brilliantly dystopian setting, funny dialog, a unique robotic sidekick and some pretty original puzzles, should be all that you need to enjoy while waiting for that accursed bus.

Dream:scape

Not so much an adventure game, but more of an otherworldly exploration game, Dream:scape transports you to another time and place, where you play as a comatose (or is it deceased?) man named Wilson. You get to explore the lovely 3D environments, piece together the story of Wilson’s life, uncover his secrets, get slightly disturbed and solve some rudimentary puzzles.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge

Monkey Island 2 is the best adventure game ever made and the greatest work of legendary game designer Ron Gilbert. Then again, you should already be aware of just how beautiful, funny, dark, original, groundbreaking and good looking it has always been. Well, know it looks even better now, while also sporting a brand new UI that works like a dream. Oh, and the classic Monkey Island cast has provided it with an excellent voice-over, whereas Ron Gilbert, Tim Schafer and Dave Grossman offer an amazing dev-commentary.

Tales of Monkey Island

Not on par with the first two Monkey Island games (then again, what is?), but one of Telltale’s finest and funniest offerings to date, and a series of episodic adventures many times superior to Escape From Monkey Island. Besides, the first episode is free to play and the series does provided with good humour, exotic locales and some of the most imaginative puzzles around.

Simon the Sorcerer

Traditional British humour in the finest of Python-aping traditions combined with old-school adventure gaming in the finest of Lucasarts-aping traditions (only vastly more challenging). Guide Simon through a wardrobe and into a humorous fantasy world, where lots and lots of pixel hunting awaits you. Capacity for lateral thinking is essential.

HECTOR: Badge of Carnage Ep1

Quite possibly the most cynical and gritty adventure game available on the App Store and one of the few offerings to go for open, societal satire. It’s funny, good looking and -shockingly to younger gamers- quite a bit difficult. Also, it can be very, very rude indeed.

Frotz

Okay, I’m cheating here, but you really have to install Frotz. It’s free to download, comes loaded with dozens of fantastic games (including horror masterpiece Anchorhead), allows for the download of more text adventures and is the best way to enjoy interactive fiction on the go. Or, well, on your iPad, which I suppose is pretty portable. Especially when compared to this.(source:indiegames)
