Adorable Adventures is a third-person exploration game where players assume the role of Boris, a baby boar separated from his family by a forest fire. Players guide Boris through environments inspired by the Cévennes National Park, utilizing his sense of smell to track scents and uncover secrets. The core objective involves reuniting Boris with his siblings by solving personality-based puzzles.

The game includes side activities such as races, photography challenges, and park tidying. Boris can collect scents to unlock journal entries and customize his appearance with accessories. The narrative is guided by a park ranger, featuring adaptive storytelling and full voiceover.
