The game has a cult following and an active online community. Adams calls it his life's work and said in 2011, that version 1.0 will not be ready for at least another 20 years, and even after that he would continue to work on it. By 2004, Adams decided to shift from the original Armok to Dwarf Fortress after the former became difficult to maintain. Prior to Dwarf Fortress, Tarn Adams was working on a project called Slaves to Armok: God of Blood which was a role-playing game. The combat system is anatomically detailed with combat logs describing organs getting pierced, fat getting bruised and limbs getting severed. The second game mode, Adventure mode, is a turn-based, open-ended roguelike where the player starts off as an adventurer in the world and is free to explore, complete quests, or even visit old abandoned fortresses. Each dwarf is modeled down to its individual personality, has likes or dislikes and specific trainable skills in various labors, alongside a lovelife system and distractions. The main game mode, Fortress Mode, consists of selecting a suitable site from the generated-world, establishing a successful colony or fortress, combating threats like goblin invasions, generating wealth and taking care of the dwarves. Before being played, the player has to generate worlds with continents, oceans and histories documenting civilizations.

See this post on the Bay12 Forums for more info, and to find out how to reclaim file listings.Dwarf Fortress (formerly Slaves to Armok: God of Blood Chapter II: Dwarf Fortress, referred to as DF) is a part construction and management simulation, part roguelike, indie video game created by Tarn (Toady One) and Zach Adams (ThreeToe). Automated backups will definitely be in place now, like we thought they were before. Sincere apologies, this should never have happened. All of the files that were orphaned are now in the new Orphaned Files category at the bottom of the category list. Thankfully all file downloads themselves were unaffected. A lot of other data (comments, votes, so forth) was likewise rolled back. User accounts were obviously rolled back too accounts newer than the time of the database backup will need to be recreated. File listings for file IDs 10461 - 16147 could only be partially recovered but have fully intact and up to date file downloads. Long story very short: the site database was lost, the server didn't have automated backups like we thought, and the database had to be rolled back to one from 2015 (yes, I know).
