Allow me to come back to this later but from what Ive played it just feels like a chore. I want to get into the possibilities of this game but I cant

Great game, love being a dwarf. Study in-game physics to create a safe waterfall to mist dwarves to make them happy after they're suicidally depressed after being rained on. Great game.

really wish i could play this without needing 50 hours of video tutorials alongside, could be the perfect experience for me


Dwarf Fortress is inarguably one of the best games ever made, and this version has lots of new things that make it less opaque and hard to control than the original. While arguably that was part of the charm, I think it works well.

BRO i played htis game and i got a fort running off of rum after painstakingly atchiung youtube for like 5 hours and then when i went undergroudn for 2 mins i looked to my left very slowly and i saw like 2009929239322918893 ALERTS AND I WENT ABOVE GROUJND and when i did my fuckign dwarves were playing supr smash bros outside with GIANT PEACH FACED LOVEBIRDS and one of my dwarves went inside and made a thing in like 2 mins that was worth 5x as much as all the money i had made until tjhart pint. goog game

this was 41% of my steam playtime this year apparently !

Strike the earth, Get overwhelmed with the interface. Die a lot! It's a great time.

God I love you Dwarf Fortress. Fantastic game, I need to pick it back up again. One of, if not THE grittiest, most detailed simulation game.

You have to get me out of the mines. I can’t stay in the hole much longer.

A masterpiece
In age when most AAA games are boring and going worse every year, milking degen trends. Yet indie games is not for everyone or can't fit for everyone tastes (saying this as one who like platformers since childhood).
But this game is one of best of all time, honestly. This game can generate worlds where even small guinea pig has well written personality(more interesting than whinning Sony characters). Itself DF is a simulation of a big fantasy world with own cities, civilizations, monsters, climate zones and...Hard to say how much here existing, from game mechanics to events, that caused mostly by creatures and player actions. Even game menus show a lot things to manage, build, law, farm, military things, but it also not close to everything that game offers.
And this game begin developing just by two brothers.
I gonna say that this developers is a true geniuses.

Even gonna add, that this game is a rare example when I wan to play also cause graphics, yes ascii(vanilla) style is quite interesing in my opinion.

The tutorial is an entire week long.
It's unplayable overall due to how many fucking things it has.
And yet
and yet
i don't even need to play it more than a week to see how grandious it is,and be afraid of it.
You wouldn't attempt to approach god, you would just admire it from the distance.

This is one the best game to relax making your perfect fortress, maybe one of your dwarf will start fighting someone, or Goblins will invade and take some of your children orrr maybe Titan will attack your base just fun time :) 10/10 recommended!

THE simulation game of all simulation games. cats groom themselves. dwarves have lives, friends, families even BLINK for gods sake. the nittiest grittiest game imaginable which is why it's not a 5 star for me but there won't be another game like dwarf fortress

tengo una filia por los enanos

Truly a great game made only better by the Steam release making it much more accessible. My only gripe is the amount of time you truly have to dedicate to this style of game.

My tavern floor has a layer which consists of blood and vomit

Perpetually almost perfect.

I've played DF since 2011. It's great to see the game this polished and loved.
+Interface about as obtuse as the main game, but polished up so I can at least see a workbench icon instead of b>o in a wall of text.
+Some QOL stuff like merging of items and roles that really has marginal difference.
+The tileset is great by default, with some TWBT transparency.
+Love that there is still modding support, and the game/developer is encouraging it.
I really have no bad things to say that I wouldn't say about Old DF. Great game.

Losing IS fun. This graphical rerelease helped me get further into DF than I ever had before (and I'd tried a lot). Even as a vim user the original game is not easy to get going with.

If you've been intimidated before, like me, I really recommend you try this version, which also pays the developers for the work they've been doing all this time. The tutorial really gets you started, and there are many very helpful tools you can use to try and keep your fortress living happily for as long as you can. The stories that will be created naturally as things Happen (if you have time to even notice them!) are always great. I should get back into this game.

O avô dos jogos de gerenciamento. Que jogo incrível. Cada mundo é único, cada ser é único. Poucos jogos me fizeram comprá-los sem nenhum desconto para jogá-los o mais rápido possível, e Dwarf Fortress foi um deles. Porém, não recomendo fazerem o mesmo que eu fiz, esperem uma boa promoção para comprá-lo, o valor cheio do jogo é bem salgado, mas de qualquer forma, para quem gosta do gênero vale muito a pena jogá-lo.
Para quem é veterano em Dwarf Fortress aqui vai uma dica: eu recomendaria a darem uma olhada em Rinworld, ele é do mesmo gênero de Dwarf Fortress e é tão bom quanto, creio que os jogadores de Dwarf Fotress provavelmente iram gostar desse jogo.

Genuinely a must play for anyone into strategy and simulation games


The children. They yearn for the mines.

A game perfect for people who love to create stories.

So glad that the ui and tutorial were added to this masterpiece. Finally removed the my barrier to entry.

im not a fan of this remake tbh
