Priceless. Best of the best. I personally am not a fan of graphics added and play in ASCII mode only, whatever boats your float - the game is fully customizable.

Not for me. The UI was all over the place. It kept auto-picking rocks which made you overencoumbered. The map's a mess. You can't use WASD to move. I can see how this would have been fun to play 25 years ago, but today? No.
In my honest opinion, this was not fun at all. You'd have a better time going back to play Baldur's Gate 1.

ADoM is simple, fun and aggravating.

ADoM offers a large number of races and classes with varying mechanics, and it has stories which vary depending on your character's alignment. The corruption mechanic is also pretty neat, where our character is twisted slowly over time by exposure to chaos. It offers power, but at what price?

The combat itself is simple, but it relies heavily on recognizing our foe and using appropriate tactics to counter them (ie don't attack a rust monster with your pretty metal sword).

My primary source of aggravation is from traps. There are so, so many of them in this game. Taking talents which increase the odds of spotting and evading them is borderline mandatory. Otherwise you'll live a life of rage and frustration as your equipment (even including artifacts) is constantly destroyed by being dunked in fire, water and acid or shattered by sound. It's also not fun falling into a pit of snakes and instantly being fatally poisoned.

I enjoy the game, but I'm also getting tired of seeing the beginner area over and over and over...
