Ah yes, I was going to post about this eventually, in the freeware games thread. I wanted to wait until the newest version was released, which will add a shitload of new features. I haven't played it in quite a while, for just that reason. However, based on this list, the new version will probably be released Very Soon (tm).
But yeah, I should get back into this game. I never did make it very far before something deadly happened. It has an incredibly steep learning curve. ____________________ What sig? I don't have a sig. |

And it could require a better manual.
I guess I just have to play around with it until I get it. :/ Like how I learned nethack. xD ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Oh god, don't remind me about nethack! Frankly, I suck at every roguelike I've ever played, which may explain why I don't play them very often. If I had the patience, I'm sure I could get better at them, but the problem is that I don't. Still, I'll be on a roguelike binge once in a while, and then I won't touch them again for months. Methinks it's just about time for another binge. ____________________ What sig? I don't have a sig. |

Hey...
I remember reading about this in Computer Gaming Magazine. I think. Just two guys made it after throwing together all of their ideas. They came up with this. They stuck to ASCII for...a specific reason, I can't remember what it was. Eh wells. I go play now. |

DF is the best game I'll never play. |

I don't understand the point of this game. Or how it works. ____________________ I miss post headers more. |

I was doing fairly well, but then the supports I had placed in the main workshop failed
I thought of a novel fire extinguisher system to deal with the fact that Spoiler: dwarves apparently like wearing flaming Pants (see the FIRE page on the DF wiki) |

I don't have a knack for games that complicated
I've never played a Roguelike though, but perhaps I can give this another shot. ____________________ I miss post headers more. |

Squash monster, that post helped alot. I should have played around with stockpiles more. The random stones being over my mine started to annoy me. And I was kinda clueless with how getting started with a farm, but I guess I will do insane mining now. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Taking another shot at it... Got some floodgates, etc. set up and creating a dual-source irrigation system (mostly because I haven't reached the uderground river yet )
Fun game, though. |

nice * note XD
BTW, by dual-source I mean from either river. I 'spose creating a permaflood in a (stone) box might work too |

Yet again, what I said before citation needed swiped the board... This wiki is useful.

This game looked great, I downloaded it, started it up and decided to try adventure mode, then I saw there was no magic and quit. That was exactly what happened, I booted up character creation, saw no magic skill and said "I can't have a mage! Screw this!" I'll come back to it eventually, but the shock of being unable to play as a mage after expecting to be able to do so takes time to wear off for me. I like Mages too much. ____________________ There are things I want to put here. Like a cool picture, my 8-bit theatre character test result, my MS and RO characters... But it's 12 AM, and I'm sleepy. |
