"Having been equipped with tracking collars so their migration and survival in the wild can be measured, the young Sea Serpent is released into the wild.  It is hoped that this captive breeding program will boost their terribly low population numbers and eventually see them removed from the endangered species list..."

Out of curiosity I want to ask what you would classify dwarf fortress as?

"Creativity Game" or possibly "Puzzle Game".

I guess fantasy world simulator is what it will eventually be, hopefully, so I could punch that one, but I think of it more as an interactive physics puzzle with no clear goal other than to create things, that just happens to have combat in it because that keeps the ascii games fans happy.

Personally, I like [DF] because after climbing the damned learning cliff, I'm too elitist to consider not liking it.
