steamunpowered.eu wrote:Dwarfs is a single-player casual game for PC and Xbox, providing endless hours of addictive entertainment. The aim is simple enough – guide your Dwarfs to mine the caves around your home base, find the gold, minerals and treasure – and try and keep them out of trouble! Dwarfs just tend to keep digging, following only their lust for more gold. So they will dig into water and lava, threatening your home. If that wasn’t enough, they keep finding all sorts of nasty little monsters that have to be dealt with too. The player can build walls, dynamite holes in the floor, or turn earth to stone in an effort to prevent disaster. But in the end, success or failure will depend on the player’s skill at directing his ever-growing army of dwarfs! And if the basic modes aren’t enough, there is a complete sandbox, where you can create your own challenges – and a “Defend the Town Hall” mode where clearing out waves of enemies becomes the biggest challenge.

RUSH is closer to lemmings with generic blocks in place of the far more interesting suicidal rodents...

this is more like dungeon keeper,(without the keeper), and a surplus of suicidal dwarves...

the game's name irritates me beyond belief but the demo was entertaining enough to entice me :D

"Moria... you fear to go into those mines. The dwarves delved too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the darkness of Khazad-dûm - shadow, and flame."

Somehow, that's what the game description reminds me of. :P
