All Dwarf Fortress fans, sound off!
Dwarf Fortress is an INCREDIBLY fun game, albeit a very complicated one. Many EFUers play it. It is also free.

There is not a person born who could possibly play this game without a tutorial. You'll be able to play within a day if you read the first few chapters of the tutorial. Here it is: http://afteractionreporter.com/2009/02/09/the-complete-and-utter-newby-tutorial-for-dwarf-fortress-part-1-wtf/
A chat log of a discussion about DF from IRC tonight:
23:04 Barber Thomas, Dwarf fortress is easily one of the best games I have ever played
23:04 Barber it is just enormously fun
23:04 Barber let me tell you what I did, tonight:
23:05 Barber (I got the basics of my fort down, yesterday)
23:05 Barber I continued to expand my defenses, where I would funnel an invading armies of goblins, giant bats and demons, into cages.
23:05 Barber then move those cages into an arena and force them to fight to the death
23:05 Barber then flood the arena with lava, to wipe out the winners
23:05 Barber however, as I did t his, I accidentally forgot to make alcohol
23:05 Barber so my ENTIRE fort went insane
23:05 Barber and started strangling each other
23:05 Barber as they had no weapons
23:06 Barber except for 8 dwarves who were master miners
23:06 Barber and with their picks... went mining for brains
23:06 thomas|mIRC lolololololol
23:08 Barber the reason I lost focus on the alcohol production
23:08 Barber is because a motherfucking DRAGON attacked my fort
23:08 Barber and I was busy rebuilding my arena system to incorporate it
23:08 thomas|mIRC Haha
23:08 thomas|mIRC Okay
