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.

Erion is a really nice community. Quick commands for moving around and combat encounters are fully automatic with some key presses if you want to change the type of attack etc.
