Hello Everyone,

It has come to my attention that Dwarf Fortress has received a mere 21 votes on IMDB Games , a count that truly does not reflect the exceptional quality of this game. In my opinion, and I am not alone in this sentiment, Dwarf Fortress deserves a spot in the top 10 list of all games ever created. The depth and intricacy it offers are unparalleled, providing an experience that goes beyond the conventional gaming landscape.


Spread the word, cast your votes, and let's see Dwarf Fortress rightfully claim its position among the gaming elite.

Other Games / Dominions 5 - the DF of strategic games?
« on: January 06, 2019, 05:35:39 am »



Should I buy it?

Steam reviews are really good (93% positive) and frequently praised for its depht and complexity.
I am not sure if it's rather fiddly than deep and immersive.

What was your expirience with the game?

Trailmakers is part creative vehicle-building sandbox, and part open-world rally expedition. You begin your journey on a distant planet far from civilization, and must scavenge for resources to build a vehicle. Your goal is to reach the finish line at the far end of the world! Build an awesome rig, and experience the wind in your hair and a sweet rush of freedom.

The world in Trailmakers is an inherently dangerous place. To progress in the expedition you need to keep tinkering with your vehicle to overcome the harsh environment. Play alone, and see how far you can get, or join your friends for a fun multiplayer challenge. In Trailmakers, the adventure is in the making.

Hello Community

I have played a lot of vehicle-building games, but this one is my absolute favorite. Anything seems possible: Monstertrucks, Dragsters, Go-Karts, Hovercrafts. Don't want to drive? No problem, create a plane land it on water and transform it then to an submarine.

Any Trailmakers in here?

Hello Bay12 Community

Does the "remove-wear" command operate permanently or does it just set wear on 0 again?

Life Advice / Coding for absolute beginners?
« on: September 11, 2016, 07:33:10 am »
Hello Community

I really want to learn how to code (maybe for a little ascii game or so), but i've no idea where to start.
What programming language is the best to beginn with? C sharp, C++ or python?
Those game creation systems like Gamemaker seem handy. And what about Unity?
I've read that the language isn't very important, but to be spoilt for choice doesn't make things easier.

I'm thankful for a little bit of suggestions and guidance.

DF General Discussion / Myth Generator: I don't get it
« on: June 09, 2016, 03:43:13 am »
May some one explain to me, what the myth generator is and how it affects the gameplay? Can we look it up on the legends mode?
I have a very rough idea. Sorry if that have been asked before, but all I read feels very vague.

We’ve got this prototype myths generator that does more or less what we need. It creates the civilizations, it has some types of magic systems, and that’s really what we wanted to get out of it. Makes some kind of landforms.
Whe had creation of civs and landforms already, didn't we?
Whats about the magic?

DF General Discussion / Workorder limit?
« on: February 19, 2016, 07:09:26 am »
Whats the reason for the workorder limitation? Of course you can make more items than that by making another workorder, but isn't it a unnecessary circumstance?

DF Gameplay Questions / One-Way hallway?
« on: December 13, 2015, 07:57:33 am »
Is there a way to make a one-way hallway?

I tried to trick the dwarfs with some traffic design but my plan didn't work out.


Any suggestions?

Hello Community

I retired my adventurer Hammerdwarf in my fortress to make him my milita commander. I checked if he's a citizen or a guest and thats what I found:



He's marked as hostile. He doesn't attack though. He's just walking around a where I retired him.
Is there a way to make him a part of my fort?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / No Vampires so far
« on: December 04, 2014, 06:18:19 am »
Hello Community

I really want to do some dwarven CSI-Investigations, but I seem never to get any vampires.
I thought that I need a specific amount of Dwarfs to "activate" them, but then i've read, that even one of your first Dwarfs can be a Vampire. Since I'm still learning and how to play Dwarf Fortress (respectively tweaking my playstile), I usually play without Invaders. Could that be the reason for the lack of vampires?

//: Is it possible, that the Vampires lived in my fort, but I just never noticed them?
