Anyone know of any free web-based adventure games?

Crimson Room
Viridian Room
MoTaS
Samorost
Droom

Yeah, Samorost is a nice game.
Also try these games:
Og Og Alive http://www.abc.net.au/gameon/ogog/ - you take the role of a caveman;
Tork http://www.abc.net.au/gameon/tork/ - beautiful adventure, and a very unique and original idea..

I was poking around on the web and found this place with a bunch of web adventure and puzzle games: Nordinho.com

It has some of the games listed above and more. The game "Chasm" is my favorite, hands down. It has professional-looking cartoon graphics and Myst-style mechanics (no inventory).

Apparently that Simian guy has - he linked it in his first post.

It's news to me though...

There's also this other awesome Flash game where you're this little guy on this log-spaceship-thing floating in space and you have to click on things to solve puzzles. I don't remember the name but it's totally cute!

There's Arcane and the Lozenge & Hampshire games.

They both seem to be dead now, although Arcane can be found on various other sites on the web. Just google for 'arcane adventure'. Shame Lozenge & Hampshire is nowhere to be found, it was the first link I clicked on the old AG site.

Entertaining for a little while, but I must admit I did get sick of it and quite.

Its a poisoned mushroom that members of the some cult use to eat at certain day they call 'samorost day'. After rituall eating they get what they call 'samoros signs' and 'samorost messages'.
