Set your name, your gender, stuff a bunch of points in combat and physical skills and you'll be ready to go in a couple of minutes. You'll begin with character creation, and it's much like any other fantasy adventure game you've ever played. Quit out of Legends mode and this time select Adventure mode. If you can tear yourself away, it's time to go for an adventure. I can spend hours just looking over it all you've done is press a few quick buttons, and fifteen minutes later you have an encyclopedia for a fictional world that's all yours. You can pore over maps, review familial histories, and see every dwarf who has lived and died in this world. This is basically a browser for the lore the game has just generated. When you're done, select to start a new game from the main menu, and pick Legends mode. It'll do this five or six times until some unknown criteria is met, and eventually civilizations will start to appear and the population and deceased counters will tick up into the tens and then hundreds of thousands. It's fascinating to watch the game put the world together - mountains leap from the earth, rivers dribble across the landscape, and then some part of the process will reject that world, toss it away and start again. This means that the process takes longer and my saved games are bigger, but the world is more rich with myths, legends and the ruins of forgotten civilizations.

I kept everything at the default "Medium", but set the pre-generated history from 5 years to 550 years. Hit 'Create New World', and select whatever you want from the various options. Your next step will be to generate that world. If you leave a particularly noticeable mark on that world in one life, you can go find the remnants of it in the next. No matter how many games you play of Dwarf Fortress, no matter how many times you die and restart, every adventure you embark upon can take place within a single world. Stick with the clean and clear defaults and press launch. When you boot the game up, you'll get a straightforward GUI setup menu asking you what graphical tileset you want to use.

The game is free to download and easy to install, the UI comes with a detailed and handy help system, and there's a community wiki full of guides - not that you'll need them. down to the most minute detail, and when all its systems combine, the results are often hilarious, occasionally tragic, and always surprising.

It simulates its characters - standard fare like dwarves, elves, goblins, etc. The two-man, twelve-year, donation-funded indie project weaves together procedurally generated geography, civilizations and histories to create a rich fantasy world. Dwarf Fortress is famous for producing anecdotes by the minute.
