Dwarf Fortress worlds are usually random but not this one.👀

Use the seed “Happy20thAnniversary” to generate the same world shown on our cloth map!

It’s more than décor. It’s a symbol of every fortress ever built. Dig into the seed, explore its mysteries, and share what you discover!⚒️

"'The more we try to understand what's going on in the world around us—the more we don't just withdraw into a hermitude of my family and I as a nuclear unit, the more we try to understand our society—I think the more these kinds of games speak to us,' Short said."

Founder of Dwarf Fortress and Caves of Qud publisher Kitfox Games says its procgen sims for sickos are 'giving storytelling tools back to the people when games and passive media took them away'

Streets of Fortuna, Kitfox's own in-development "megasim," is chasing that same systems-driven storytelling.

Caves of Qud
Herododicus
Chrome bunches in cloth-like furrows across a metal tunic that drapes across their lanky, anxious, pinion-limbs. A large metal cask -- their head -- sits atop their too-frail undercarriage, and a gleaming glass eye shines at you in several shades of tinted light. They seem on the verge of apologizing.
