Anybody ever played this? Seems like a free minecraft meets rogue game. Apparently a very deep game but with a rather steep learning curve.

dunno, might even have them. :)

Watched some tutorials and it's more Colonization meets minecraft. You land on a new continent with 7 dwarfs and have to survive as long as possible. You need to build workshops to make food, drinks, furniture, armor, weapons, well everything really. You grow your settlement, explore the lands, meet new civilizations and fight stuff. Eventually you'll die apparently as the game lacks a win condition :)

Gameplay seems really good but the GUI, or rather lack thereof, makes it somwhat difficult to get going.
