This video is one of several that are part of my beginner's guide. If you watch them all from start to finish you should have no problem understanding the basics of how the game works, even if you're a beginner. I started this series about 6 years ago, the version of Dwarf Fortress used is in the description of each video. The fundamentals of the game have not significantly changed in that time, so this guide should continue to remain relevant.
