The long-standing venerable bastion of adventure game coverage and community, AdventureGamers.com, has been sold to scam grifters and is currently in the process of being gutted.

From the "about us" page on AdventureGamers.com:

"Adventure Gamers has long been recognized as the largest English-language website dedicated to the adventure game genre. Since our founding, we’ve provided trusted, in-depth coverage of puzzle-driven narrative games, from classics like Zork, King’s Quest, and Monkey Island, to the latest releases redefining the genre for modern players.

But as the digital entertainment world evolves, so do we.

Expanding Into the Gambling Industry

Recognizing the growing convergence between gaming and gambling, Adventure Gamers has expanded its coverage to include the online gambling sector."

An example of gambling "reviews" on the site: a Da Vinci themed slot machine and a Spartacus themed slot machine. Spoiler, both get glowing reviews.

From the review of the Da Vinci themed slot machine:

"Playing Da Vinci Diamonds is easy and fun. Its design is both pretty and useful, making it simple to move around and find what you need.

The user-friendly nature of Da Vinci Diamonds stands out. It’s made for all kinds of players. You can start playing right away because it’s so easy to use.

It lets you enjoy the game without getting confused.

“The best slot games are those that combine great graphics with simple, intuitive controls.”

John Doe, Slot Gaming Expert

The game looks and sounds fantastic. It has high-definition graphics and a great soundtrack. This makes playing Da Vinci Diamonds a special experience."
