History and profile
Tim Kask departed from TSR (company), TSR after finishing his run with ''Dragon (magazine), The Dragon'' #36 (April 1980) to work on a magazine of his own, ''Adventure Gaming'' (1980–1982); according to Shannon Appelcline, "His new venture was more generalist than ''The Dragon'', but otherwise looked a lot like Kask's first magazine with an emphasis on (generic) FRPs, ''Traveller (role-playing game), Traveller'', and wargaming. ''Adventure Gaming'' was launched in 1981. The founding and continuing editor of ''Adventure Gaming'' was Tim Kask, long of TSR, Inc., TSR and founding editor of ''Dragon (magazine), The Dragon''. ''Adventure Gaming'' was based in Norwood, Ohio. ''Adventure Gaming'' took an editorial stance squarely in the middle between the booming FRP (fantasy role-playing) segment of the industry, and the traditional board and miniatures gaming segments. The magazine closed in 1982 with total 13 issues.Reception
W. G. Armintrout reviewed ''Adventure Gaming'' in ''The Space Gamer'' No. 45. Armintrout commented that "As of now, ''Adventure Gaming'' is a colorless publication that hasn't gotten itself off the ground. The only reason for subscribing would be if you have a personal motive for helping an all-hobby magazine survey. I don't recommend it."Reviews
