Dwarf Fortress is coming to Steam with graphics
It might be notorious in hacker circles, and retro gamers. If you ask people outside of those groups most will not even have heard the name

It is notorious, or at least quite well known, among anyone I'd consider to be part of "internet culture". Also I'm not sure why DF would be particularly notorious to retro gamers, since it is not a retro game.

The UI of DF is same as the UI of the 40-year-old Roguelike games. Hence retro. And hence unknown to 99%+ of gamers.
