adventure mode

Story-driven gameplay option

Adventure mode is a gameplay setting in video games that emphasizes exploration, narrative, and progression through a structured experience, as opposed to creative or sandbox modes where players build freely.

In games like Minecraft, adventure mode restricts certain actions—players can't break blocks without proper tools—making it suitable for custom maps and challenges.

I played through the whole adventure mode in one sitting.
