"Games for old timers"

Just wondered if anyone knows of any old style adventure type games for the PS2.....ie puzzles over action (like the Hobbit on the Spectrum!!!) - Except up to date.....It would be nice to have a slower paced game that required thought instead of hand to eye coordination, to play with my GF and me folks......
does such a thing exist on the PS2?
I've had a brief look at Monkey Island but not sure if it has action in it.....
If not.....will have to develop my own Titchmarsh/Dimmock extreme gardening sim or something....

That's about it for PS2 point n click games at the moment. But if you want other 'slower' games, you've got things like Shadow of Memories or Theme Park World. And I guess games like Resident Evil or Silent Hill are less dependent on fast reflexes than others.

You could also run PSone point n click games. Like the two Broken Sword games. Or maybe a Worms game?
