Some games have an extra (a walkthrough, a manual, maps,...), but most of them don't.

Almost all of the adventures we have are so famous, that it's enough to type: walkthrough (and the name of the game) in google and you'll get numerous hits.

But why a walkthrough? Games are much more fun if you learn how to solve the puzzles yourself k:

I don't think that's got anything to do... A walkthrough is copyrighted to its author, not the game's. The web is full of walkthroughs for games that are still being sold. If Ab provides a walkthrough for a game that's reviewed but without download, people who own the game will still be thankful if they can find the walkthrough here. Well this is subject to opinion and discussion but I'm pretty sure that there would be no copyright violation or illegality.

Esa protected = no game on site = no place where to put the Walkthrough.

Thing is - we had to recheck if a walkthough is part the game documentation that we are allowed to do and host...

ESA protected needn't equal not on site. There were games whose download was later withdrawn, of course there are games with the ESA no go button. For example... Maniac Mansion (well it's the deluxe version but the walkthrough is as valid as for the original one):
