Dwarf Fortress almost made me fail a few courses in undergrad.

That is a game that redefines the concept of fun.

If you don't gotta consult the reference books regularly, are you even enjoying yourself?

I bought a second monitor just to have the wiki open at all times.

I have legit weaponized kittens as projectile anti-siege bioweapons using drawbridges as catapults.

It is amazing that in zero words that comic encapsulates nearly everything about Dwarf Fortress.

This is the only game that made me regret wasting time eating IRL because I needed both hands for designating jobs.

If that comic defines what dwarf games and dwarf fortress plays like, then am I a dwarf for exclusively playing indie roguelikes and roguelites?
