- Hidden Fun Stuff redirects here. It can also refer to... well, do you really want us to spoil it for you? It is also used in the dev logs to refer to anything Toady doesn't want us to know about until we find it ourselves.
This page is a list of hidden or unexpected aspects of the game.
Fluctuating Subtitle
When starting up the game, on the title screen where the player first chooses what to do, the top reads:
Slaves to Armok: God of Blood Chapter 2: Dwarf Fortress Histories of ...
'...' will be generated each time the game is opened. Some combinations include "Histories of Avarice and Resourcefulness" and "Histories of Jealousy and Tenacity." Generally, the words will include a synonym each of "greed" and "stubbornness", which as we all know fit the hairy little blighters like a Cave spider silk glove.
Dwarven Daydreams
Some dwarves like Toads for their beauty, an obvious inside reference to Toady One.
So What If I'm Dead?
Checking the weather, temperature, or date in Adventure Mode after dying will instead return a snarky message reminding you of your current medical state.
Bey@nd Quality?!
For about one frame, the word "Beyond" in the Bay 12 Games Beyond Quality intro turns into "Bey@nd". Nobody knows why.
Oink!
In the Bay 12 Games Beyond Quality intro, when the program is saying "Quality", grab the title bar and drag it around a bit. Release, and when the lines appear, you'll hear a pig sound.
Help Screen
If you press the ? on the help screen you will go to the help screen of the help screen, now press it twice more :-)
Dungeons and Dragons
In a fortress which doesn't yet have a dungeon master[Verify], open the Manager screen (jm or um) and queue up a new work order, then type in "electu" for a hidden message. (Note - this is not visible once a dungeon master arrives at a fortress.)
Intro Movie
Not quite an easter egg, more a spoiler: The final scene of the intro might well be a HFS.
