Description

After over 25 years, here comes the official sequel to classic ADOM.

Experience the modern sequel of the traditional roguelike dungeon-crawling classic. Enjoy unlimited replayability through endless procedurally generated dungeons, countless monsters, grafting, crafting and a vast amount of skill trees..

DELVE INTO THE LORE


Evil has been vanquished. Peace has returned to Ancardia, and the peasants dare to dream once more of prosperity. Seven very different factions vie for control over the cataclysmic aftermath left behind by Andor Drakon’s defeat. And somewhere, deep down in an inhospitable cave, ChAoS is stirring again.

Pick up your blade, prepare your spells, check your daggers and ready your bow, for you are about to enter the ominous Caverns of Chaos. Choose your allegiance carefully, for you are nothing more than an expendable asset to the masters you choose.

Fight for a mercenary's glory and purse, for the justice of a folk in decline, for the light of purity or even for ChAoS itself. Every choice you make will determine how you approach the ever-changing Caverns of Chaos before you.

CLASSIC ROGUELIKE VIRTUES MEET MODERN FEATURES

  • Endless procedurally generated dungeons, countless monsters, items and a grand selection of very different skills allow for unlimited replayability.

  • Interactive surroundings! Topple braziers, push coffins, smash doors or turn them into wooden golems to (hopefully) serve your bidding.

  • Choose or toggle between graphic mode and traditional ASCII at any time. Toggle between 3D mode and top down view, in ASCII or in the graphic mode.

  • Intuitive control system will get rid of the need to memorize hundreds of keys. Though you can still do so, if you're into that. We are not judging.


UNRIVALED COMPLEXITY AND CONTENT

  • A great variety of classes, genders, races and allegiances to choose from allow for extensive build diversity and change the way the game challenges you. NPCs will react differently, new quests will be open to you and the world may change completely based on your decisions.

  • A deep magic system with several unique schools of magic and over 80 of spells to choose from, ranging from summoning demons to animating the very walls of the dungeon to aid you - the possibilities are endless.

  • Over 380 skills in 25 skill trees and dozens of secret skills trees that are only waiting to be unlocked.

  • A stealth system introduces a totally new way of playing the game: Instead of hacking or blasting all opposition to pieces you now can sneak past adversaries and avoid conflict.

  • Turn yourself into an abomination and graft your enemies’ body parts on yourself. They won’t need them anymore, and what's better than wielding two swords? Two swords and an axe to harvest more body parts than ever before.

CHALLENGING AND UNCOMPROMISING, YET REWARDING

  • Countless options of how to tackle the dungeons awaiting you. Befriend or tame creatures, slay monsters, delve deeper or keep exploring and expanding the cavern levels you have already found. Over 200 different foes await, each requiring matching tactics.

  • "Dying is part of the fun" - Each death is permanent. Your progress however will allow continuous improvement of future characters.

Basically solid but needs development

The mechanics are workable, there's just not enough variety or depth to fill even a single run. The skilltrees are too limited for the level/difficulty/skillpoint distribution. By that I mean, cap out your important skilltrees about halfway through, get all the most powerful upgrades, and then you still have to sit through another ten to fifteen floors that have very little variety or difficulty while being absolutely showered in extra skillpoints. Last run, I was a necromancer. I had like 50 necromancer skillpoints left over (after maxing out all trees!) and ended up using melee more often than actual spells, because I was so overleveled and overequipped that I didn't need warrior skills to hit and besides most monsters are immune to stat drain/necromancy anyway. Summons are even more janky and unreliable. Strangely, the bloody level 1 poison spell is a better skillpoint investment than most necromancy or summon spells. On any character, just get some points into the poison and healing trees and you've basically already won. Overall, I can recommend the game well enough, but it's sitting in a weird place atm.

A wonderful effort. A bit sluggish.

The download is enormous and both modes (ASCII and Graphical/tiled) are quite sluggish. I don't think this is a fair representation of the original ADOM. Adding graphics and sound effects (groans, clashes, crunching sounds) doesn't add a great deal to the actual game. I bought it to support the author. Long-time adom players should enjoy this, but the console-based original seems better, faster and more intuitive. It is roguelike in the sense that it is set in a dungeon in the wilderness, hidden camps and mountainous regions. Overall, I am very pleased with the game and it is a great way to support a very talented indie developer (and maybe plant a few trees). If you're new to the game, play the free, console version first and then open this one up. You won't be disappointed

sin pulir ni terminar y abandonado

se supone que este iba a ser la version accesible del adom original, con grandes promesas de ampliarlo, darle actualizacion y soporte por tiempo indefinido, desafortunadamente el desarrollador lo abandono y nunca mas volvio a tocar el juego si se siente sin pulir y sin terminar es porque asi esta, por ejemplo obtienes oro que se supone puedes gastar en tiendas, pero no hay tiendas, el stat de apariciencia y carisma se supone que afectan el comportamiento de npc pero solo hay 2 npc en todo el juego es una lastima que hayan lanzado el juego asi y que lo hayan abandonado, porque tenian un buen juego entre manos
