DWARF FORTRESS
Praise Armok!


What is it about?
Building(or rather Mining) a fortress with the help of Braindead Dwarves,  Managing dwaves and slaughtering unowned kittens for food.

I cannot figure how to do anything! Why can't I do anything!?
Dwarf fortress has a very loving steep learning curve, it gets exetremely enjoyable when you start to get a reasonable distance in the climb however. To learn how to run a fortress check the wiki, which link is at the bottom. A good guide on the wiki will also be posted.

The lag, oh dear god the lag!
Go slaughter some cats man, just make sure they are strays.

I don't like Ascii!
Get a tile set, down I've post the wiki's tileset section.

I have other questions!
Then ask in the thread, someone may help you out.

Or are you trying to get them to do something and they refuse too?

Edit: click u and check if they are doing something.

Or you know, read the old threads.
