CAAD fanzine
The CAAD fanzine, also called simply CAAD, is a Spanish fanzine (now a magazine) edited by the Club de Aventuras AD and directed by Juan José Muñoz Falcó. The first Spanish language fanzine about adventure games, it was made in Valencia and distributed by mail to all Spain and some South-American countries. Primarily focused on conversational adventures (IF), it was published between April 1989 and December 2000. In that time, 38 issues were published in paper edition and ten more in PDF only edition.
