What's your line?
« on: January 25, 2009, 07:07:57 am »
Ok peoples,

This here thread is for collecting Dwarf Fortress oneliners..
How would you describe Dwarf Fortress in 1 sentence?

I'll kick off:

'Dwarf Fortress is to indy gaming, as Lego is to toys'

1 & 3 are from other people:

1. Any problem can be solved with enough magma!

2. No other game had me mercilessly butchered with my own loincloth.

3. Goblins, the forth iron ore.
