I've been tempted to get the iOS version, maybe this milestone will compel me to do so. The only indie-game-story I respect as highly is Dwarf Fortress.

The game engine was going to be used by Notch as a '3D Dwarf Fortress' but ended up turning into Minecraft. I wish I could have seen it as Dwarf Fortress.

Also worth checking out is a game called Towns.
