Way better gfx and sound than the Atari ST;)

Rimworld is an accessible game and while it has a certain level of depth compared to other games, especially on the emotional side of your characters, it's shallow compared to DF.

The problem with DF is, it's hardly accessible. This is why so many people hope for the Steam version. It's often more fun to read people stories playing the game compared to playing it yourself.

DF offers you the illusion of a living world, that is writing it's own history.

Dwarfs discovering some kind of creature living on a mountain edge. They gain interest in it. Throwing stuff at it, talking about it, giving this creature a funny name. Later on your mason will carve stories on your walls in your castle and somewhere in the story, maybe, he will write about this creature.

It's these little things that make DF fun.
