5 Must-Play Action-Adventure Games for Beginners
Are you looking to get into the action-adventure genre, but don’t know where to start? Or maybe you’re just looking for something new to play. Either way, this list of games is a great place to begin exploring the world of action-adventures. We’ve chosen them based on their high replayability factor and how well they hold up after multiple playthroughs; they’re also all available on PS4 (with one exception).
Hollow Knight
Hollow Knight is a 2D action-adventure game set in a world of insects and bugs. You play as an unnamed character who must travel through underground caverns, fighting enemies and solving puzzles along the way.
The game has a Metroidvania design, so you can explore the world as you progress through it. It also features an extensive storyline that gets deeper as you go further into its depths.
Journey
Journey is a game that needs no introduction. It’s one of the most popular and critically acclaimed titles of all time, and it has an interesting gameplay style that makes it stand out from other games in its genre.
The basic idea behind Journey is simple: you play as an unnamed character who wakes up in a desert with no memory of who they are or how they got there. In order to find out who you are and why you’re alone in this strange place, you have to explore its world while interacting with other players’ avatars (who appear as glowing orbs). The goal is simply to make your way across vast lands while solving puzzles along the way–but what makes this game so unique is its stunning visuals and music by Austin Wintory (who also composed for Assassin’s Creed Syndicate).
Rogue Legacy
Rogue Legacy is an action-adventure game that was released in 2013 by Cellar Door Games. It’s available on Steam and GOG, and has a Metacritic score of 84. The game takes place in a 2D platformer environment, where the player controls an adventurer who must explore castles and dungeons to find gold and treasure while fighting enemies along the way.
Transistor
Transistor is a game by Supergiant Games, creators of Bastion and Pyre. It’s a sci-fi action RPG with an amazing soundtrack and art style that will leave you breathless. The combat system is unique to the genre, but easy to learn–it’s more like an action game than anything else.
The story follows Red as she tries to find out who killed her singer lover in a futuristic city called Cloudbank. Along the way she gets new powers from an old weapon called Transistor that allows her to fight back against those who want her dead.
The Dangerous Kitchen
The Dangerous Kitchen is a game about a chef who specializes in the art of cooking. The gameplay involves solving puzzles and avoiding enemies, but it’s not as challenging or complex as some other titles on this list.
The story follows our main character as he tries to prepare his signature dish for an important customer. It’s easy to follow along with the plot, and most players will find themselves invested in what happens next by the end of their first playthrough.
The game features several unique characters that give it an interesting twist on an otherwise typical action-adventure experience (for example: there are no actual humans present).
One thing I found particularly enjoyable was how much freedom you have when exploring each level; there aren’t many restrictions when moving around different parts of each stage–which makes sense considering this is supposed _____ (your own words here)
These are excellent games for beginners.
Action-adventure games are a great way to get started with video games. They have wide appeal, with a large variety of styles and themes that appeal to many different kinds of players.
Action-adventures often feature a lot of action, but they also have an element of exploration and puzzle solving. Action-adventures can be hard to define because they’re not really any one thing: some are more focused on combat than others; some are more about exploring dungeons or worlds than others; some even include elements from other genres like platformers or RPGs (role playing games). The key element in all these types is that there’s usually some kind of character progression system–so if you’ve played an RPG before then you probably won’t find anything too surprising here!
