ADOM in the media...
ADOM has been covered in a surprising number of magazines and articles posted to websites... probably a lot
more than I know of (see the revised media license of ADOM for the current details on how to handle this). I do not
really care whether you are going to write something good or something bad about the game (although I prefer the former ;-), but I'd just like to know that
you are writing something about ADOM at all. I'll be getting copies of your article (or will have them sent to me - see the license) to be able to show that
stuff to my kids in the years to come (once I have some). Thanks for listening.
If you know of any other magazines/websites covering ADOM, please let me know about it. If you were able to
provide me with a complimentary copy of print publications I'd bery eternally grateful :-)
So far I'm aware of the following products covering ADOM:
| Games Domain Review |

It's a bit old but it's well-written and a good review ;-) Thanks for the kind words to Daniel Gemmer for the
review.

| esfera.net Review |
|
Vault Network had an article about roguelike
games and an interview with me.
|
| Vault Network Interview |
|
Vault Network has lots of news about the current computer rpg scene. Very interesting to read
if you are interested in that topic. They also post regular news regarding ADOM (thanks folks, it feels nice to run the headlines along with the
big players ;-). Some time ago they asked me to do an interview and you can read about it here.

| Die Pöppel-Revue Nr. 6/97 |
 |
This nice german boardgame magazine (buy it!) has a very nice article concerning ADOM. Very funny to read and the author seems to enjoy
ADOM. The only sad thing about the whole story is that they never told me about that article. Hadn't it been for a lucky coincidence I never would
have seen it. The article is located on pages 58-60.

| Gambler Magazine 8/98 |
 |
This polish magazine has a very nice article about roguelike games in general, where all major games are covered. It also sports a CD with all
the games (and more fun stuff) on it. Great magazine and they sent me three complimentary issues, so that I'm very happy. Now I just wish I
could understand the polish language... if someone has a translation of that article available, let me know. I'm getting quite a lot of polish postcards
these days, BTW. Thank you!

| PC Chip 17/98 |
 |
This croatian magazine covers ADOM 0.9.9 Gamma (pages 93-94). I already got a translation of the article and would like to thank the publisher for
the two complimentary copies.

Thomas Biskup recommends: XBox Console
"Yes, I confess it - Microsoft has brought me back into console gaming. And there's a simple reason for it: I don't like hardware, I don't like fiddling with systems and I like to take it easy. The XBox system IMHO is as easy to use as its get. You have a built-in hard disc and never have to think about extensions to be able to save games (memory sticks, yikes :-P ), the games are great, the graphics are great and the price is ok.
I have spent many hours playing Star Wars Battlefront and Fable and intend to continue doing this. So for me this is a safe bet and I surly will by the XBox 360 as soon as it is available. Of you want a simple console system with great games you can't go wrong here."

Please support this website by going to Amazon through one of the links on this website
(if you want to shop at Amazon at all that is ;-). It doesn't
cost you any surcharge, but provides me with ADOM-related income. Thanks!
