DWARF FORTRESS ASCII FACE BEARD MODThere is even a mod to make it all 3D, but it is too difficult to play in that mode in my opinion after you get used to it one way.

I think we have finally arrived to the spot we are to dismount.” replied Otto as he jumped off the wagon. Look there, dwarf heads on pikes line the mountain side. Otto looked up, but a look of disgust filled his face as he yelled “HEADS!” Lothor looked down and saw to his luck that it was tails. Lothar flipped the coin and looked to Otto for his guess.

Who knows, maybe someone will be interested enough to try to learn to play it and we can get a bigger succession fort going A prologue to our adventure will be posted shortly. While we are not asking anyone to actually try and play the game at least it should make for a good read in the long run. We will be adding a bit of story as we go along and hope you enjoy it.
