Adventure Gamers is a computer game website which was dedicated to the genre of adventure games until 2025, when its new owners turned it into an online gambling promotion site.[1] Created by Marek Bronstring in March 1999,[2][dubious – discuss] it has published reviews and previews of adventure games, as well as opinion articles and interviews with game designers.
The site has been descibed as having "offered some of the best coverage of the adventure game genre available on the net" by Time Extension.[1] Adventure Gamers was referenced in the print book Rogue Leaders: The Story of LucasArts.[3] Ragnar Tornquist, the creator of the adventure games The Longest Journey and Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, has stated that the reviews on Adventure Gamers have been "very important to [him]".[4] In addition, Straandlooper, the developer of Hector: Badge of Carnage, called Adventure Gamers "one of the foremost and widely respected websites about adventure games".[5]
In June 2025, new owners of the site shut down its forums and changed its "About" page to expand its focus to online gambling. Several adventure game developers reacted negatively to this development. Former Adventure Gamers chief editor Jack Allin had already left to found Adventure Game Hotspot, a spiritual successor to the site, in 2022.[1]
