I know I've already suggested quite a number of games this week and may see a great number of my uploads featured on the upcoming Adventure Legends update, but I've recently done a bit of searching for old games I used to own and came across something of an obscure adventure game called The Jungle Book: The Legend of Mowgli.
There's a great deal of information to be found in the links I've provided, but I can tell you firsthand why this game can be considered an adventure game. There is a section of the game that is something of an interactive movie in that you can guide Mowgli as he travels through the jungle and find a cave which is the home of a villian that is so evil we never learn his name. The whole segment lacks speech and a story, and is mostly just a glorified tour of the jungle and its animals.
Even so, it is an interactive movie since it is possible for Mowgli to get killed when he faces the villian which results in a bad ending for his adventure. Oh my!
The interactive movie section of the disc is what qualifies this CD-ROM as being an adventure game since it's pretty much the meat and bones of this CD-ROM in addition to being able to read the Jungle Book and learn more about Rudyard Kipling. But, still, I would like to see this end up on the site.
