So, I was wandering around Wikipedia and came to this page.

Dwarf Fortress is another game, first released in 2002, leveraging ANSI graphics. While taking advantage of OpenGL for speed, Dwarf Fortress' default graphics is exclusively ANSI code page 437 characters.

I was rather surprised to find a mention of DF there, I don't imagine that's a very popular page.

I'm not a very good sample, but DF is the only example of ANSI art I can name.

The only other game that used ANSI extensively I can name off the top of my head is ZZT, and that's already mentioned in the article. But ANSI is cool. More roguelikes should use it :3

ANSI?
In our Unicode epoch?
