Dwarf Fortress

Dwarf Fortress is many things. It’s a near impenetrable mass of construction, management, rogue-like elements and procedural generation that will confound for hours on end. However, it’s also a rich story-telling tool where each of your dwarves has a distinct personality and upbringing. Going with Fortress Mode can challenge in numerous ways, whether it’s mining deep for magma, defending your fortress, farming underground or battling mega-beasts like dragons. Adventure Mode and Legends further diversify the experience, as complex tales of valour and misery are carved before more worlds are generated.
