List of adventure games where you can't die

Whether the verbs are text or icons seems not that important to me. I’d rather see a list of games where you can’t die or don’t need to rely on loading saved games.

Maybe we should start a new thread for collecting such games. Seems a good point to me.

Both Simon games match these criteria. The question is: Can we put MI1 on this list?

If we only count permanent death, my Ultimate Talkie Edition does count, as I added a retry button in that one particular scene.
On the other hand, if any non game over death counts, Monkey Island 2 and CMI would be out too, as there is that acid pit scene in MI2 and the story even requires you to die in CMI.

I would also include dead ends to such a list, as those are even worse than dying, imho. So I would define the requirements for such a list:

• No deaths resulting in a game over. (A “retry” button bringing you back to the point just before you died, fulfills this requirement.)
• No dead ends.
• No save scamming required by design, ie. gambling elements required to win with the odds against you.
