I recommend CDDA, but I can’t agree it’s easier to grasp, compared to Dwarf Fortress. Even before the Steam release DF was much easier for me to just hop on and start playing. With varied results, mind you.
@szczur df is definitely easier to start, you won’t die, unlike cdda which will kill you first time playing on day 1 guarantee. But df is much more complicated, the z level alone took me a few videos to wrap myself. Not to mention you’ll end up with hundred of dwarves to manage
