Been playing this game since the 90's on DOS. Still haven't beat the game properly. Play as Dwarven Bard.

Used to play a bunch of the old ASCII version back in the days. Tried the earliest graphical versions and didn't really manage to get into it. Recently returned to it to see how it has developed and I can just say that this is finally the version that brings back the magic of the original. Instantly hooked. I consider ADOM as one of the absolute best games ever made and the developers have managed to bring it back to life in modern format!

If you enjoy poring over compendiums of information for context this is the game for you. My very best advice, use Ctrl + F to search for text in page while having multiple tabs open on a separate device, because you will either die so, so, so much or come to terms with processing around a master's thesis worth of information. I have played this game for twenty years and I still have pages for corpse effects, statues, locations, ultra ending quest requirements, and pool effects up regularly. Sounds daunting? It is. You'll die a lot regardless. I die a lot. But! it is interesting because it is so complex. There are mysteries no one has solved. There are ten thousand flavor comments and creature descriptions. There are alternate endings and so much entertaining depth. Just be ready for setbacks. So many setbacks.

I have not played this game for 169 hours. I have been playing it, very irregularly, for more than a decade. I have never won, and in fact have never gotten very far. Despite this I still play it, so it must be a really good game. I guess. 10/10

I bought this game and literally couldn't stop playing it. I lost sleep obsessing over it. I went to work and thought of little else but new strategies for getting to the new areas. I kept thinking do I really need to shower, clean my house, eat, or do anything else that isn't playing this game? It got its hooks in me so deeply that after beating it I awoke as if from a trance. This game is like an addiction that seeps into you and interferes with your life and responsibilities. Yeah, this is probably one of the greatest rpgs I've ever played. If I were to compare this to another rpg I would compare it to something like Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead but without the zombies and ADOM isn't post apocalypse but pre-apocalypse. The world is ending but you can stop it. The biggest difference is that in CDDA you feel like there is no real goal but survival while in ADOM the player has a sense of purpose and urgency. You need to save the world and you need to do it now before you become so thoroughly corrupted by the dungeon that are you turned into a writhing tentacle monster. Saving the world isn't easy though and if you don't plan for every contingency you are going to die. If you play this game you will be dying a lot. There's even meta progression based upon the number of times that you have died in game (bug temple) which is crazy considering this game was originally released in 1994. A rogue like with in game meta progression in 1994!!! You would think people would be screaming about this game in the streets or giving it a holiday.
