''VideoGame/DwarfFortress'' is often lauded as one of the most complicated games of all time. The interface is opaque, the learning curve a cliff. It's hard enough for experienced players to keep their forts safe and secure on the best of days.
So, what happens when a bunch of players play a succession fort [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy while completely inebriated?]]
Drunk Fortress is a ''Dwarf Fortress'' succession game in which each player takes a turn playing while totally plastered. It's run on a "First Drunk First Serve" basis, in which whoever is consuming alcohol at the moment is the next player. As can be expected from such playing conditions, the fortress quickly became a labyrinthine mess of half-finished projects and forgotten passages, with magma leaking into the fort from every direction and hosting at least three tantrum spirals. And it is ''glorious''.

!!"Drunk Fortress" provides examples of:
* AccidentalInnuendo: It happens.
-->'''Shoruke:''' "You like axolotl leather, holy gods that's a bitch to spell, so now you're a leather person. I mean a leather worker person."
* AddledAddict: Invoked, enforced, and played for laughs.
* TheAlcoholic: The players, the dwarves...
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: The whole point, really.
* AlienGeometry:
--> '''Shoruke''': Also, did nobody notice that at one point all the rocks seem to be ''negative hundreds of thousands'' of spaces away from the crafting rooms?!?
--> '''Taupe''': Yeah I was like "''who dropped all the crafting materials on the fucking '''sun'''?''"
* ArchiveBinge: 291 pages as of 2016-03-19.
* AttackAttackRetreatRetreat: When the fortress was overrun by Forgotten Beasts, this was the result. 58 unarmed dwarves beating up a Glob of Water and assorted monsters. 8 survivors.
* AwesomeButImpractical / RubeGoldbergDevice / RubeGoldbergHatesYourGuts: Most of the... more creative contraptions designed by the drunk overseers.
--> '''Random_Dragon''': (to Bobnova) You've just invented the dwarven combination refrigerator/self-destruct device.
* BarBrawl: Shows up, but only for the same reasons as it does in normal Dwarf Fortress: namely, Dwarves sometimes start fights when they get depressed, and this being Dwarf Fortress, there's a lot to get depressed about.
* {{Beergasm}}: Go figure, most of the players who get drunk enjoy getting drunk.
* BingeMontage: The format of Drunk Fortress basically enforces that every turn is one of these. The thread as a whole is, in turn, a montage of Binge Montages...
* BoozeBasedBuff: Averted, alcohol [[CaptainObvious makes you drunk]] but [[RealityEnsues not any better at Dwarf Fortress]]. It might make you decide to pursue stupider ideas though, which is entertaining...
* BrainBleach: When you're drunk and dealing with clouds of gangrene, it's a good idea to have more alcohol handy to wash the mental images away.
* BrickJoke: At the end of [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116045.msg3681408#msg3681408 Ruhn's Turn]] he mentions flipping a wagon with a bridge, but not seeing anything land. Later at the start of [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116045.msg3687109#msg3687109 Scruffy's Turn]] the wagon lands, to Scruffy's utter bewilderment.
* TheCaligula: Pretty much everyone.
* CantHoldHisLiquor: Considered an advantage, since you need to spend less money on alcohol to be eligible to play!
* CaptainObvious: The drunk players to their Dwarves, sometimes. Or to the forum in general when posting turns.
--> '''Moony the Human''': Sorry, I don't drink.
--> '''Bogwedgle''': [[NoTrueScotsman No Dwarf are ye]]!
--> '''Random_Dragon''': Of course he isn't a Dwarf, it says exactly that in his username.
* ChaosArchitecture: Drunk people trying to design 3D buildings and make drunk Dwarves build them. Things get a bit confusing at times.
* ClusterFBomb: Unsurprising, since Dwarf Fortress is difficult and everyone playing it is drunk and on the internet.
* ComedicSociopathy: A side-effect of mixing [[ArtificialStupidity stupid]] [[VideoGame/DwarfFortress dwarves]] and [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy drunken players]].
* CountryMatters: Random Dragon managed to misspell "count" in both his turns.
* CuteMonsterGirl: After the tavern update to Dwarf Fortress allowing foreign mercenaries, scholars, and bards to take up residence, came "Drunk Fortress: Exotic Goblin Pole-Dame edition" when a female Goblin entertainer with proficiency with [[BladeOnAStick polearms]] moved in. Her brief popularity was somewhere between TeamPet and {{Mascot}}.
* DeathWorld: Forgotten Beasts, magma, freezing water, cave-ins, infinite demons, Goblins, badgers and keas... what [[EverythingTryingToKillYou ISN'T trying to kill]] the poor shumuck Dwarves who immigrate?
* DifficultySpike: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] by the players for comedic effect. Heavy drinking makes hard games harder.
* DisproportionateRetribution:
--> '''Random_Dragon''': I'm gonna eat whoever [[FanNickname dorfed]] me as random_reptile.
* DoomedHometown: Every fort is doomed to die and everyone knows it.
* DoubleEntendre:
--> '''Naryar''': Also more seriously, that removal of the giant penis was a dick move. Seriously, Scruffy took so much on himself to erect it.
--> '''Shoruke''': Was funny reading how much trouble you guys were having erecting that cock in the volcano, but you fucked your way through it, I guess.
* DrinkingGame: While Drunk Fortress itself does not strictly count, since one is only required to "be drunk" to play, one of the (oft-forgotten) rules is that players can make a rule for the next player to follow (assuming they are not too drunk to remember it). Creating a drinking game is a popular "rule".

* ForebodingArchitecture: You know you're in for a ‼fun‼ time when you load up a save, look at your own fortress, and see disjointed chaos.
* ForegoneConclusion: As with DoomedHometown, above. None of these forts are going to survive for very long.
* FourIsDeath: Every four in-game years, Wrex takes over the fort and consequently fails at keeping the fort alive. This has henceforth been called a "wrexed year".
** "I hope it dosen't become a tradition that fortresses blow up when I take control."
* GagPenis: After Shoruke [[NeverLiveItDown went to the Japanese Penis Festival]] and tried to BrainBleach the day away by playing Drunk Fortress, the next several forts were filled with constructions in the shape of a dick.

* InJoke: "Shoruke is legion."

--> '''[[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute Shoruke?]]''': That indeed seems to be the case, for I too, am Shoruke.
* InterfaceScrew: Some of the players use texture packs. Some don't. This leads to some rather odd-looking walls in the screenshots.

* KillItWithFire: As with normal Dwarf Fortress, lava is an enticing strategem. It also goes wrong even more often than in normal Dwarf Fortress.
* LateToTheTragedy: Ifeno was, oddly enough, late to ''his own'' tragedy. He got so drunk he couldn't remember playing, and had to compare his save with the previous one after the fact to piece together what happened during his turn.
* LavaAddsAwesome: When drunk, this feels even more true than usual to a Dwarf Fortress player. Naturally, being drunk also makes it harder to [[RealityEnsues handle magma safely]].
* LethalLavaLand: This trope is a side-effect of drunk people attempting to weaponize magma, regardless of whether they succeed or fail.
* LevelAte: Taupe constructed a building in the shape of a giant 3D taco. There was talk of filling it with garnierite furniture and magma as spicy taco salad filling, but the fort died before it could happen. Also the magma pump stack got flooded with both magma and water during construction.
* MadeOfIron[=/=]NeverGetsDrunk: Several people have noted the copious amounts of alcohol that Clover Magic drank while still remaining, if not [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy perfectly fine]], still capable of playing ''[[DifficultButAwesome Dwarf]] [[VideoGame/DwarfFortress Fortress]]''.

--> '''Scruffy''': Finally someone is going to use that depot for its intended purpose. Burning elves.

* NoTrueScotsman: A common (light-hearted) insult to be thrown around is "this place looks like it was designed by someone sober".
* OhCrap: When your fortress is shoddily-made and your overseer is inebriated, a Goblin siege or a Forgotton Beast can elicit this reaction.
** After abandoning and reclaiming the fortress, Shoruke found out the hard way that the Forgotten Beast [[SealedEvilInACan they'd walled into a side room]] wasn't gone, but rather waiting in ambush (and therefore invisible until the moment it started wrecking things again).
* OneTruePairing: The Dwarves are nicknamed after the players in the thread, typically without regard for things like gender or expected lifespan. Dwarves also marry and have children. Jokes were inevitable.

--> '''Bogwedgle''': Did you notice that the vomit monster was bitten to death?
* SommelierSpeak: Frankly, you'd think it would show up more often.
* TantrumThrowing: Happens (in-game) even more frequently than in a regular fortress, due to shoddy management.
* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: Occasionally played with when someone new to Drunk Fortress shows up.
--> '''Havarous''': If I am trusted enough to do so, I would like to put myself forward for the position of overseer.

--> '''Shoruke''': ...You're hired. When can you start?
--> '''Bobnova''': Doubly hired. Start now.
* UndergroundLevel: As with everyday Dwarf Fortress, fortresses tend to be dug out underground, and there are also naturally-occuring underground caverns. The caverns can be !!fun!!...
* UnderTheSea / UnderwaterRuins: Scruffy started a fort atop a lake. No points for guessing what happened to the fort...

** Another fort was started atop a frozen lake. Guess what happened to the fort when summer hit and the ice [[CriticalExistenceFailure all melted instantaneously]]?

[[caption-width-right:350:"There seems to be a minor issue with lava containment."]]
->''The siege is broken! We are victorious!!!!! Also, the exterior of the fortress continues to burn.''

''VideoGame/DwarfFortress'' is often lauded as one of the most complicated games of all time. The interface is opaque, the learning curve a cliff. It's hard enough for experienced players to keep their forts safe and secure on the best of days.
So, what happens when a bunch of players play a succession fort [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy while completely inebriated?]]
Drunk Fortress is a ''Dwarf Fortress'' succession game in which each player takes a turn playing while totally plastered. It's run on a "First Drunk First Serve" basis, in which whoever is consuming alcohol at the moment is the next player. As can be expected from such playing conditions, the fortress quickly became a labyrinthine mess of half-finished projects and forgotten passages, with magma leaking into the fort from every direction and hosting at least three tantrum spirals. And it is ''glorious''.
See the madness [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116045.0 here]]. Action starts on page 7. [[NeedsWikiMagicLove Needs some Wiki magic.]]

!!"Drunk Fortress" provides examples of:
* AccidentalInnuendo: It happens.
-->'''Shoruke:''' "You like axolotl leather, holy gods that's a bitch to spell, so now you're a leather person. I mean a leather worker person."
* AddledAddict: Invoked, enforced, and played for laughs.
* TheAlcoholic: The players, the dwarves...
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: The whole point, really.
* AlienGeometry:
--> '''Shoruke''': Also, did nobody notice that at one point all the rocks seem to be ''negative hundreds of thousands'' of spaces away from the crafting rooms?!?
--> '''Taupe''': Yeah I was like "''who dropped all the crafting materials on the fucking '''sun'''?''"
* ArchiveBinge: 291 pages as of 2016-03-19.
* AttackAttackRetreatRetreat: When the fortress was overrun by Forgotten Beasts, this was the result. 58 unarmed dwarves beating up a Glob of Water and assorted monsters. 8 survivors.
* AwesomeButImpractical / RubeGoldbergDevice / RubeGoldbergHatesYourGuts: Most of the... more creative contraptions designed by the drunk overseers.
--> '''Random_Dragon''': (to Bobnova) You've just invented the dwarven combination refrigerator/self-destruct device.
* BarBrawl: Shows up, but only for the same reasons as it does in normal Dwarf Fortress: namely, Dwarves sometimes start fights when they get depressed, and this being Dwarf Fortress, there's a lot to get depressed about.
* {{Beergasm}}: Go figure, most of the players who get drunk enjoy getting drunk.
* BingeMontage: The format of Drunk Fortress basically enforces that every turn is one of these. The thread as a whole is, in turn, a montage of Binge Montages...
* BoozeBasedBuff: Averted, alcohol [[CaptainObvious makes you drunk]] but [[RealityEnsues not any better at Dwarf Fortress]]. It might make you decide to pursue stupider ideas though, which is entertaining...
* BrainBleach: When you're drunk and dealing with clouds of gangrene, it's a good idea to have more alcohol handy to wash the mental images away.
* BrickJoke: At the end of [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116045.msg3681408#msg3681408 Ruhn's Turn]] he mentions flipping a wagon with a bridge, but not seeing anything land. Later at the start of [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116045.msg3687109#msg3687109 Scruffy's Turn]] the wagon lands, to Scruffy's utter bewilderment.
* TheCaligula: Pretty much everyone.
* CantHoldHisLiquor: Considered an advantage, since you need to spend less money on alcohol to be eligible to play!
* CaptainObvious: The drunk players to their Dwarves, sometimes. Or to the forum in general when posting turns.
--> '''Moony the Human''': Sorry, I don't drink.
--> '''Bogwedgle''': [[NoTrueScotsman No Dwarf are ye]]!
--> '''Random_Dragon''': Of course he isn't a Dwarf, it says exactly that in his username.
* ChaosArchitecture: Drunk people trying to design 3D buildings and make drunk Dwarves build them. Things get a bit confusing at times.
* ClusterFBomb: Unsurprising, since Dwarf Fortress is difficult and everyone playing it is drunk and on the internet.
* ComedicSociopathy: A side-effect of mixing [[ArtificialStupidity stupid]] [[VideoGame/DwarfFortress dwarves]] and [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy drunken players]].
* CountryMatters: Random Dragon managed to misspell "count" in both his turns.
* CuteMonsterGirl: After the tavern update to Dwarf Fortress allowing foreign mercenaries, scholars, and bards to take up residence, came "Drunk Fortress: Exotic Goblin Pole-Dame edition" when a female Goblin entertainer with proficiency with [[BladeOnAStick polearms]] moved in. Her brief popularity was somewhere between TeamPet and {{Mascot}}.
* DeathWorld: Forgotten Beasts, magma, freezing water, cave-ins, infinite demons, Goblins, badgers and keas... what [[EverythingTryingToKillYou ISN'T trying to kill]] the poor shumuck Dwarves who immigrate?
* DifficultySpike: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] by the players for comedic effect. Heavy drinking makes hard games harder.
* DisproportionateRetribution:
--> '''Random_Dragon''': I'm gonna eat whoever [[FanNickname dorfed]] me as random_reptile.
* DoomedHometown: Every fort is doomed to die and everyone knows it.
* DoubleEntendre:
--> '''Naryar''': Also more seriously, that removal of the giant penis was a dick move. Seriously, Scruffy took so much on himself to erect it.
--> '''Shoruke''': Was funny reading how much trouble you guys were having erecting that cock in the volcano, but you fucked your way through it, I guess.
* DrinkingGame: While Drunk Fortress itself does not strictly count, since one is only required to "be drunk" to play, one of the (oft-forgotten) rules is that players can make a rule for the next player to follow (assuming they are not too drunk to remember it). Creating a drinking game is a popular "rule".
* DrinkingOnDuty
* DrinkOrder: Most players post what they're drinking and in what quantities, although unlike in fiction, the point isn't to establish one's character, but rather to demonstrate how drunk you are.
* DrowningMySorrows: Dwarves do this, and players frequently invoke INeedAFreakingDrink.
* DrunkenMaster: If you manage to get anything done, you get to claim it's because you're one!
* DrunkenMontage: The thread is more like a montage of {{Drunken Montage}}s.
* DrunkOnMilk: Deliberately, forcibly averted. A recurring question that comes up is, "can minors qualify to play with sleeping pills/ other drugs / lack of sleep"? The answer is no, because [[EveryoneHasStandards the community doesn't want minors doing anything risky to their health just for our amusement]].
* EpicFail: The fortresses!
** A particularly spectacular example was the source of the page image. Now, magma leaks are pretty common in succession games, but this particular one was leaking into the fort on three separate levels. Magma, unlike water, does not naturally flow up levels.
* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Just like in regular Dwarf Fortress, except you can add [[UpToEleven the rules of the game and the previous players]] to the list, as well.
--> '''Taupe''': The seasons are easy to tell with this new fort. I ask myself "are people dying from mass-drowning, or mass-refreeze?"
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin
* FailedASpotCheck: The overseers in general. The Dwarves in general. Basically, this trope is generally in effect.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The only logical outcome, achieved as early as Year 3. And it just keeps happening.
** '''Jervill''': Guys, we have destroyed 13 fortresses and ''two entire worlds''.
* FailureMontage: Dwarves aren't smart, people are drunk, things break in rapid succession. It happens.

* FourIsDeath: Every four in-game years, Wrex takes over the fort and consequently fails at keeping the fort alive. This has henceforth been called a "wrexed year".
