Imagine you have complete, insane, godly control over every aspect of a group of dwarves. To the extent where you can preserve a blood line through generations. Throw that into a world that literally generates its own historical background, complete with empires that play along with you, free roaming animals that can kill you, cave ins, and every fucking type of ore you can think of. Now put all this in the shittiest graphics possible, with an interface more complicated than a PMSing women, which will fuck you with a rusted fork if you make one wrong move.

But remember losing is fun!
