If you like Dwarf Fortress, but hate the interface, you may want to try out Rimworld. http://store.steampowered.com/app/294100/
It has a similar playstyle, but with graphics and a UI that isn't too bad. Not the best UI, but not bad at all.

The first time I played it, I ended up with a Donner party-esque situation in which my medicine had run out, everyone was dying from infected wounds inflicted by raider attacks, and the few colonists still on their feet were fully occupied feeding the spoiled remains of the dead to the barely-living. Colonists were dying faster than the survivors could dig graves for them. It was brutal.
