I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to.I guess. 

Hey! My name is Chrispy not Nobody

These games have quality, they have a lot of depth, and they have a fairly decent level of difficulty. They give a surprising amount of freedom for the player, and if you wanted to cheat, you actually have to work at it!

You'd be surprised at how many people still play, and develop (z)Angband, Nethack/Slash'eh, and ADOM. True, there are a lot of dead variants, but ASCII games are still alive and kicking.
