Looking for the best games like Dwarf Fortress, Evil Genius, Gnomoria or Dungeon Keeper? Then congratulations on being a real gamer who can handle difficult games 🙂
Dwarf Fortress: Just in case you came here searching for something other than Dwarf Fortress, let’s start by introducing this flipping excellent game. Dwarf Fortress is a roguelike city-building game set in a fantasy universe that is procedurally generated. In it you play a groupf of Dwarves who aim to create a wealthy mountain home. To do so, you’ll need to fend off all manner of enemies  and even when you do fend off enemies you’ll still lose as its not actually possible to “win” the game, per say. Charming!Â

GnomoriaÂ
The surprising thing about Gnomoria is that its like Dwarf Fortress but easier. . . a lot easier. The gameplay is actually pretty simple. The game features a fully destructible environment so you can chop away to your heart’s content. Oh, one more difference between Gnomoria and Dwarf Fortress, in case you hadn’t notices, is that Gnomoria is about gnomes. . . which aren’t as cool as dwarfs but, whatever. Â READ MORE ABOUT GNOMORIA
Towns
Towns is both a game like Dwarf Fortress and a game like Gnomoria. It’s a new take on the city building game style that includes RPG elements. You’ll need to lead a settlement by creating weapons, building and other items while making sure you’re ready to defend yourself against enemies.
Towns takes elements from every other game on this list. It’s a game like Dungeon Keper, a game like Evil Genius, and a game like everything else as it practically rips elements straight out of other games. Â READ MORE ABOUT TOWNS

The first similarity between this and Dwarf Fortress should be staring you right in the face. Dwarfs. . just. . ya know, just in case you somehow missed that.
Game of Dwarfs is a pretty typical city building type game where you play as a Dwarf prince with his heart set on expending his kingdom.

King Arthur’s Gold
Action, strategy, creation and destruction are the key ingredient in King Arthurs Gold. Well, plus a load of gold, that is. The good things about games like King Arthurs Gold is that, unlike Dwarf Fortress, they’re not that hard. This title is accessible while still containing the same fortress building theme. The graphics are in 16-bit style too, which looks really cool and the worlds are randomly generated. Good stuff.

Dungeon Keeper
In truth, I should have called this article “Games like Dungeons Keeper” because this was the first game on this list to be made. It’s also a classic. It was released way back yonder in the ancient times. . . which is 1997. You manage and construct a whole dungeon. . . which sounds hella fun to me.

Teleglitch
Teleglitch has randomly generated levels that revolve around a story of science gone awry. The world is reconfiguring itself (hence the random) because of some experiments in teleportation and genetics then went royally tits-up. The levels hold a similar theme but the layout of the map changes with each play. There are destructible walls and moveable objects too, making for dynamic environments with hidden areas.
You start off with only your trusty pistol and knife combo. You’ll run out of bullets before long too, meaning you’re gonna need to know how to use a blade. You draw your weapon with a press of the right mouse button and aim via a reticle and a line drawn between your character and the target. You’ll never feel 100% confident in your weapon-ability as each new baddy packs a real punch, making combat an engaging challenge.

Little Inferno
Little Inferno isn’t a typical game. It’s really more of a physics simulation with a plot and some humour. It is a heck of a lot of fun though and you ‘ll find time flying by as you sit there burning things. It’s certainly not wasted time though as Little Inferno is immensely relaxing. It’s the sort of game that allows you to drift away from life, to escape in a dreamy state of mind. As such, it’s a perfect game to play when you’re tired of work and when you need to chill out.
