there are a lot more, but it depends on what you expect from an adventure!

Remember Zelda, Inca, Marco Polo, Alice in Wonderland, Shaolin's Road....

I meant straight adventure games, you know like point and clicks - shadowgate, deja vu, discworld, kings quest, maniac mansion these are some popular examples. the zelda and link games are action-adventure (platformers)

Laser Lords is also no point & click.
Morlov Affair is barely playable.
Maybe Shaolin's Road falls in this catagory, and so does Marco Polo. Inca is partly point and click combined with some action, but so is Secret Mission.

So I think the term 'Adventure' is very broad. What you mention with King's Quest, I think games like Secret Mission comes closest.

yeah I haven't played most of those, i just read reviews and seen screenshots of them and they look/sound like adventures. I played secret mission though that isn't point and click because there is no cursor. but it doesn't need to be point and click to be adventure. adventures are just games were you progress by solving puzzles using items to interact with the environment

there isn't many true adventure games on consoles, "action/adventure" is the broad one which most games are classified as.
