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!

Great

!!Sometimes!! the cursor got stuck all the way to the left of the screen and wouldnt let me do anything, forcing me to CTRL, ALT, DLT just to restart the game after cooling down. !!!Ingame push Alt-R and you have high-res.!!! Very good game! It`s good to be bad again ;-)

Great game but a few nuisances

Just like I remember playing and comes already patched to 1.7 and playable on Win7 64bit. The only hiccups I find is that I am not able to attract Black Knights & Dark Angels :( Have looked online, various map fixes, user generated 1.8 patch and still no joy about getting either critter into my dungeon.

Awesome

I played Dungeon Keeper 2 few years before. Now I bought Dungeon Keeper 1. Graphic is really bad (sure, because this is old game), but game is awesome. It works good on Windows XP. 5/5 stars. You must have it!

True Classic Gaming at its best!

This game will always hold a special place in my heart. From watching the heroes getting massacered by my level 10 minions to slapping a bile demon just for it to give you 2 fingers. This game was not only worth while to win but it also had brilliant personality when it came to voice acting and animation. It may have taken me several months to win but by god it was worth it!!! If you havent played this yet you dont know what your missing!!! And if your looking to relive your PC gaming youth then this will bring all the happy memories back with a good back hand slap to your imps ;-)

Great game, I want more!

Are you wondering if you should buy this game? The answer is hell yes. This game is amazing, and I don't need to review it, you'll love it, I promise. What I need to say is that even though the GOG release isn't the best, and the game lags severely if you don't max out the cycles in DOSBox and I'm afraid to try it in a higher resolution because it will probably lag there too, I am still thankful that they made this amazing experience possible again. I love this game and I love GOG for putting it on here, but be aware that most likely you will have some problems with it. Now, I would love it if they possibly fixed these problems, and released the Deeper Dungeons expansion pack. That will be an amazing addition! Pretty please? :)
