What are your favorite "ugly" games? (lemmy.ml)

I enjoy Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup played in the terminal with ASCII graphics. I wonder whether there are other hidden gems out there which don't get attention because they are "ugly"?

I think the Steam release of DF looks nice. They're simple graphics, but not ugly.

I'll have to give it a go. I bought it to support them. I put in many many hours of DF like 10 years ago. I was sending the guys money too... I wish I could find the drawings they sent me.

I've just been playing a lot of DCSS lately because it is so easy to just spin up my browser and be killing kobolds and fire giants.
