Fearmonger is a little heavy handed but the comparison to Dwarf Fortress is probably too strong.

I don't find F* syntax anymore intimidating than Haskell, Scala, Mercury, Prolog, etc. aka the hard languages. I love Ruby and I didn't find it intuitive when I first began learning it (specifically, the block/lambda passing mechanism).
