Dwarf Fortress | 2023 Guide for Complete Beginners | Episode 2 | Farming, Trade Depot, Stoneworker

Dwarf Fortress is one of the most iconic and wonderful games ever made. It has been transported to Steam with new controls, UI, tilesets, and more. I have been playing Dwarf Fortress for over 10 years and always love firing up a new fort. Dwarf Fortress is a joy to play, but can be daunting at first, as there are many systems and mechanics to learn. In this complete beginners guide to Dwarf Fortress, I will explain to you the basics from the ground up by starting a brand new fort so you can watch and even play along. I will explain the controls, the UI, the mechanics, how to build, mine, craft, decorate, navigate the map, and survive. I detail my thought process, sharing tips and tricks along the way but I spoil nothing about the game. I don’t force a particular path or tell you to min/max, but rather help by providing the fundamentals so you can enjoy Dwarf Fortress at your own pace. If you are thinking of buying the game and want to see early gameplay, or have purchased Dwarf Fortress but would like some pointers on the basics and the Steam version, this is the guide for you!
