To be more specific,
top-down 2d (RPG like interfere), no leveling (exp), little RNG elements and non zelda-like
is that consider an adventure or RPG game?

From what I can gathered online, RPG and adventure game is two different genre. However, adventure game can have RPG elements just that it is less focused on character development (experience, skills, levels etc). Am I correct to say that?
