    These guys are the kind we need more of. Dwarf Fortress is very much a labor of love and well worth the price on Steam. They have over 20 years of development put into it and even though the steam version got a fresh coat of paint, the text mode version is still free.

    Anyone curious about Dwarf Fortress should check out Kruggsmash on Youtube. He has been making Dwarf Fortress videos for years and really does a good job of revealing the stories that evolve during gameplay.

      When they accidentally killed cats by alcohol overdose by having them lick their paws and not considering they might step in ale.

        Or when dwarves would go blind because they had liquid in their eyes and no way to get it out. Dwarves have eyelids because of that.

      Kruggsmash is so creative and cool. I don’t play DF, I bought a copy though because I love watching the stories it creates. I hope I’ll get into sometime, but just a little support in the meantime.
