ICO is one of my all time favorite games, but I'd hesitate to call it an "Adventure" game in the classic sense. It certainly doesnt share most of the mechanics of a good old point and click game, but it does share good storytelling and puzzles. I would recomend the game to any "Adventure gamer" as I think it is a good bridge between the pure adventure and action/adventure hybrids.

Besides, whether it's a purist adventure game or not, it's one fantastic experience!
