Help finding an old text based game - lemm.ee

There was a post on lemmy a couple of weeks ago about an old, hard, I think text based game. I wanted to look it up but forgot the name and I can’t seem to find it anymore. Any help with this would be really appreciated.

Okay definitely valid about the lack of details… The only thing I can really remember about it was it being very punishing, and near impossible without a guide of some sort.

I feel like there maybe have been mention of crafting and/or colony management. I’ll see if I can find more details than this

Oh, that sounds like that game with dwarves. Dwarf Fortress or something?

No, it’s called nethack! There isn’t any colony management as far as I know tho. I was mistaken in that
