 * Keep - Artworx's pinnacle was back in the 80's which mean that the best sources are offline. However, they are noted for their strip poker game. This book has some signficant coverage. -- Whpq (talk) 16:59, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep, here an article from Lakeland Ledger, here one another from Chicago Tribune, here a review of one of its games by Miami Herald, here a review in PC World, here one another in Nibble, some significant coverage in these volumes of Computer Gaming World, also significant coverage in the book "The joy of cybersex" by Phillip Robinson, Nancy Tamosaitis, Peter Spear and Virginia Soper. Historically notable, according the book "Sex in video games" by Brenda Brathwaite (pp. 312-313) Artworx Strip Poker was "the first strip poker game ever released for the home computer" and "the longest running, sexually-themed video game series in history". --Cavarrone (talk) 06:49, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
