What is that type of game called?

What is the official name for the type of game where you walk around and trade different items to people to get further?

Also, what are some good ones.

Most games arent based soley on the tarding, usually its just a side quest. I suppose itd be adventure though.

[Seth Mitchell]

no i mean, like on newgrounds, or other flash game sites. Games like Nicholos' Quest

They're called: "If you're bored enough to play a game like this, you should kill yourself" games.

I used to waste so much time on those things because I thought there would be more to them, then complete it and find it would be over.

"Adventure games" is what I call them.

 It would be a kind of Sim, wouldn't it?

[FFL2and3rocks]

Nah, not really. Some of them are kinda RPG-ish.

[Grandy]

The Trading Sim RPG, sounds like something I wouldn't play.

[FFL2and3rocks]

Well, Quest for Glory is an example of a... "trade game" or whatever. Lots of the game is just going around talking to people, exchanging items for other items to advance in your quest, and puzzles. But you fight monsters too.

[Archem]

They are officially qualified as an adventure game by most trustworthy sources.
