What players say
This game is great for people who enjoy the Dwarven style. At first it was a bit slow, but that was just a learning curve. Soon, you will have mining tunnels stretching across the map, machines drilling for you, smiths making weapons and tools nonstop, and a fortress that launches boulders, bolts and angry Dwarves at anything that attacks you.

Great game, but without an FPS cap or V-Sync, my MacBook Air runs at max and overheats.
I find myself coming back to this game on a regular basis, so far I've only ever finished the very first chapter, attempting to get farther this time. It's a nice casual game to while away the hours when you don't have anything better to do..
