A Strange Mood: The Couple's Dwarf Fortress Podcast

Episode 22: Let the Dwarves Do the Grinding


Listen Later

Things are hopping at both our forts, and we’ve got paper making, mine carts, lava fountains, and clothes keeping us busy. Plus, tons of cool community news! Kristin wonders why her dwarves aren’t inspired to write books, and Drew tells us just how grumpy his dwarves are, even when they’re happy. Topic of the day is whether or not Dwarf Fortress is “grindy,” what constitutes grindiness in a game, and what makes Dwarf Fortress special in the management sim world. Digressions include the definition of quire, dwarven population booms, and how we can’t listen to podcasts while we play Dwarf Fortress.
