Not in HOL: ADOM

This one is a rather complex ASCII rogue like rpg(Well nowadays there is more advanced graphics, but not for the Amiga version). This game was created by Thomas Biskup though sadly the Amiga version hasn't been updated for quite some time. Homepage of the game here https://www.adom.de/home/index.html Twitter of Thomas Biskup here https://twitter.com/adom_dev?lang=en . As far as I know the game was only ever released digitally, so no disks.

There are 3 versions of it for amiga. I do not know the exact differences between them. They can be found at the bottom of this page https://www.adom.de/home/downloads.html

Yes, It is this ADOM v3.3.3. Three different versions are optimised for CPU 68000, 68020 i 68040.

It has been a great many years since i played the game on Amiga so i probably played a slightly older version than that one, impossible to say really. I believe some items/areas/other content was added with newer versions of the game, i really don't know. But the ASCII graphics would've been the same regardless.

Surprisingly enough after doing a little checking, it seems the windows version and amiga version of the game are both 3.3.3 for the ascII graphics version of the game. I do not know of this game ever being on an adf off the top of my head, so its hd only and it requires kickstart 3.0 or higher. I've added a couple screenshots of the game to the ftp server in /ADOM screenshots

Does anybody know what year was the first Amiga release of this game? The earliest version I could find (0.9.9 on Aminet) is dated 1998.

HoL now says 1994, though I suppose it's maybe related to general DOS release. Or was it possible to "compile" the game for Amiga at any time?

According to Wikipedia the original Linux release was in 1994 and the DOS and Amiga versions followed in 1995. I'll change the year to 1995 on HOL.
