Adventure

Adventure Mode, formerly Dungeons and Levers, is an upcoming game mode.

Not much is known yet on what Adventure Mode will include. It is likely that Adventure Mode will increase the distinction between the Survival and Classic modes, making Survival more like the regular Minecraft, where the object is only to build and survive.

It is a possibility that Adventure Mode will include permadeath like Hardcore mode, making it rogue-like in nature.

There can be NPCs that will give you quests and shops. It may also be likely that you will just respawn in an npc village if you die but it is yet to come.

The "Adventure Update" spanned updates 1.8-1.9 and was meant to be an update to "flesh out" the game. Adventure Mode should not be confused with the "Adventure Update". Minecraft Beta 1.8, the first quarter of the update, was released on September 14, 2011. This mode has not been released yet; in the Release Candidate there are no signs of the "Adventure Mode".
