Action / Adventure
Action / Adventure games involve navigation and active participation to complete objectives and achieve an overall goal.
The Sandbox Game Maker has many new tools, including the Game Rules system, to combine with the Objectives system for quests (formerly called "Rules") and new or enhanced object logic (behaviours and components) to design a spectacular world to explore.
