Original question by @capuccino@lemmy.world

I've played A dark room, and Zork. I'm looking something more like the first one, text-based but able to push some buttons to do things rater than do everything with commands. I've thinking in Dwarf Fortress, but it's too colorish, like Brogue, which I do like a lot.

Do anyone have some recommendations? Thank you.

Nethack, maybe?

    That used to be my slacking off game at my first real job. I'd ssh into my computer at home and sneakily play Nethack whenever I got bored. Either that or browse websites with Links.
    This was around 2007 and way outside my comfort zone as far as computers were concerned. I felt like such a hacker at the time :)
