    Dwarf Fortress.

    And if you want an idea of what it's like, read the thread below. And if you don't give a rat's ass about the game, read the thread below. It's funny.

    Re: Dwarf Fortress.

    I was bored.

    Quick review: Guys playes a civilzation of Dwarves, but every year saved the single player game and forwarded it onward to the next guy to be king for the next year.

    I have tears rolling down my face reading thier journals/diaries.

    The elephants don't seem to be leaving. They love their stench and miasma-filled tunnel. So, still, no one can go outside. All the wood is outside, which means my carpenters don't have a lot to do right now. But I know if I cracked the front door for them to get to the wood, they'd go fucking RUNNING down to the elephant tunnel to say hello to their gigantic angry tusked friends. On the brighter side, we have plenty of beds, since most of their previous fucking occupants are now dead, so we don't need the carpenters to make much right now.

    are you kidding me? I'm supposed to be scared of a little fucking goblin siege? I'm already trapped in the fortress by four legendary elephants. Shit, I'm just hoping you assholes manage to kill the elephants for me. I'll give you a fucking medal.

    The worst thing you could do to me would be to open the door, causing the lemming rush of death down the elephant tunnel again. Come on, bring it on.

    Apparently the elephants don't mind the goblins. They're best friends. "Oh, you here to beat up the dwarves? Well, by all means, go on through, be our guest! We'll just be out here chewing on these dwarf bones if you need us!"

    The goblins are totally confused by all this and have decided to go stand around by the channel. "Hey, the sign on the door says closed. Shit. Bob, I thought you said it was open until 9 on Saturdays? What do we do? Maybe we should ask the elephants, they seem to have killed a lot of them."

    The goblins just lazily took a few potshots at a stray cat still wandering around out front, and then they just stayed out in the Elephant Tunnel. I think they're starting their own little town in there, elephants and goblins living together in peace and harmony, joined only by burning hatred for dwarves.
    After reading this I may just have to try and look past the ANSI graphics and try to play this game.

    Someone listened to me! Someone really listened to me!

    It's comedy gold. Some of those guys write really well. I haven't tried the game yet (looks like a steep learning curve, but I might be wrong), but I'm gonna have to some day.

    I tried the game after you posted. I really enjoyed it. The graphics leave a lot to the imagination, which is a good thing. It's kind of like reading a book where you know what's going on but you have to rely on your imagination to visualize it.

    In terms of design and depth of game play it's the best game I've ever played. And it's FREE!

    Re: Dwarf Fortress.

    Yeah, it supposedly has insane depth, and all kinds of shit is tracked. I've heard stories about 1 gig data files created to keep track of everything the game tracks.

    I still haven't gotten around to playing it yet. This weekend, I got sucked into playing Aveyond 2 on gametap (heart gametap).
