PC title Dwarf Fortress may well be one of the ugliest video games of all time. It does make for one hell of a lovely picture book, though.
An introduction: before there was Minecraft, there was Dwarf Fortress. Itâs part world-builder, part-RPG and in its raw state, played using ASCII art as though weâd never left the 1980s.

Of all the things I love about video games, this is thing I love most. Games that set their claws so deeply inside someone that they donât just play it, they live it, coming up with stuff like this in their spare time.
Below is a trailer for the story; you can read the thing here, or here, and you can check out Dwarf Fortress here
