Shared on Sun, 02/03/2013 - 09:57So I picked up a book on how to play Dwarf Fortress. Getting Started in Dwarf Fortress: Learn to Play the Most Complex Video Game Ever Made.
http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Started-Dwarf-Fortress-complex/dp/14493149...
The book is good so far. Hilariously it is on O'Reilly who make programming books and not Brady Games or a similar game guide press. I haven't really passed the beginning parts that I seem to be pretty good at doing so far but I've still learned somethings and picked up some great tips. I can't wait to get the parts which is after the initial setup parts (i.e. I haven't successfully traded yet, I've grown some farm goods but I don't think I've reaped the rewards yet, I don't know how to make booze, I made 1 trap but don't know the different types of traps, something was stealing my fish and lobster and I don't know how to stop it (some animal)....etc. etc.
Anywho as fas as I can tell this might be the most comprehensive way to learn how to play DF (in addition to trial and error of actually playing the game).
