Description

Being the Dungeon Keeper and all, this is your home, too. And it’s your business to take these loathsome creatures of darkness and hone them into screaming, frothing, clawing forces of destruction. Lure them in with food and the promise of dank and fetid places to sleep. Keep them in line with the back of your hand and the threat of dire consequences. Pit their scaly hides against the best that the Forces of Good can muster, and they’ll die for you as they rip steaming entrails out of the hapless heroes. 

It’s a degenerate and nasty job…and you love it. Yes, home is where your heart is. In a box. Packed in salt. That's right — Dungeon Keeper, Bullfrog's classic dungeon management strategy, gives you no extra credit for having any morals. After all, the underworld isn't black and white! 

Key features: 

 

  • Includes Dungeon Keeper and the Deeper Dungeons expansion.
  • Revolutionary game packed with tons of dark humor, an impressive variety of hellish creatures, and highly addictive gameplay
  • Build your dungeon & protect it with a labyrinth of dark corridors, a web of deadly traps, an arsenal of powerful spells, and an army of bloodthirsty demons
  • A refreshing title for someone tired of rescuing princesses, saving worlds, and all that love, happiness, and political correctness junk. Just this once, be the bad guy!

Brilliant Game. Anoying Glitch.

This game is amazingly fun and so full of nostalgia for me. The only bad thing is that there seems to be a glitch where on occasion the mouse will shoot to one side of the screen and stay there no matter what i do (it is not my mouse/computer that has the issue), making the game unplayable and forcing me to restarts the game. 5 stars for the game, losing one for the glitch.

DOSBox...

DOSBox makes it games terrible. It is not playable ("offline lags"). Anyway, it's a cool game!

Music is missing.

Excellent game, nothing new to say there, BUT - Russell Shaw's glorious soundtrack is nowhere to be heard in this release. There's clearly a slider for Music Volume in the settings. Very disappointing. The demonic atmosphere of Dungeon Keeper is terribly undermined without the deep, dark and disturbing soundtrack heard on the original CD release.

You can't not love it

Years ago, I got this game at a garage sale. I fell in love instantly. Now, I bought this game so I can use it on Windows 8.1. Obviously, the graphics aren't amazing, but the game itself is great. I've never really seen anything like it before or since. You get to build your own evil lair and kill things. It has a nice balance of building up vs. going on the offensive (limited gold options allow for time while keeping it fairly fast-paced). Sometimes the UI is a little confusing and you don't always know where fights are taking place, only that they are. Also, it can be difficult to keep your imps out of hostile territory as doors can only be placed in corridors and there's no way to build walls or blocks (at least not at the point I'm at currently). Overall, these issues are minor and can be countered in various ways. I'd highly recommend this game to anyone.
