Dive into Odd Realm, a mystical colony sim set in a land of fantasy! Lead your settlers to construct a thriving haven, navigating unpredictable seasons, elusive bandits, unseen horrors, and fabled gods. Every choice etches your colony’s destiny, igniting a saga of adventure, peril, and triumph.
Imo Odd Realm and Songs of Syx can very much stand on their own. DF is cool and has lots of depth, but the UI & UX still is quite lacking and “meh” at best. You also have only that one race to play as, which I guess is the name of the game but not that interesting if you don’t really care much for dwarves. I’d also argue that the graphics in Odd Realm & Songs of Syx are much nicer.
That’s fair, but what I really like about Dwarf Fortress is the complexity, especially the industry chains you can create, some forts can become almost factory like, not to mention the world simulation is unmatched.
