I was looking for something like dwarf fortress adventure mode or cataclysm dark days ahead and this is as close as I could find.
Sacrifices a lot of the smaller details of CDDA by being easier to play (not a bad trade off necessarily). You'll still die a million times in Qud though.
I for sure feel this sentiment but damn does Qud hit that sweet spot. Like, sometimes I don't want to feel like I'm writing a dissertation - which is what CDDA can feel like sometimes - but I still want said depth, or at least the feeling of said depth. CoQ hits that sweet spot. So much charm too, love it.
