I personally think it's an adventure game. I mean, get rid of the occasional combat and you have a direct control Myst-alike.

I disagree. Maybe this is because I started gaming as a console fan, but I've always felt that allowing the player to save anywhere removes the challenge from many games, and allows designers to be lazy regarding pacing and level balance ("hey, if they die from something incredibly stupid, it won't hurt them because they should be saving every five seconds anyway!"). But that's another discussion.
