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!

Reliving my childhood

I had the original game when it was released and can remember playing it for hours and hours Its such a great game! and unlike most moaners.... its even better there wasn't a high resolution copy released its stuck to the original game play and fixed the bug where Horned reapers are easier to keep happy now instead of the almost constant stream of gold gifts, yes I'll admit the sound wasn't always perfect and It would almost minimise itself to a smaller screen from time to time but top notch when it comes to value for money Couldn't be happier having just completed the game for the first time in about 13 years

classic gold

I love this game, it's just so much fun. Evil in indeed GOOD. gameplay is fairly straightforward, the humour is quite entertaining (I especially like the fluffy bunnies lol) and it's one of those games I keep going back to every few years because it's just really quite a lot of fun. The strategy for the various worlds is suitably varied that the gameplay doesn't get too repetitive and there's something wonderfully gleeful about dumping a load of maxed out monsters on your enemy heart and laughing as it's shrunk down to nothing and explodes. Ahh Dungeon Keeper. Challenging, entertaining, all around how you SHOULD do an RTS.

Nothing short of brilliant

Dungeon Keeper is a tremendously original game, in which you dig out dungeons, so that you may overtake this disgustingly nice world, with its horrifically nice, happy people, as well as competing dungeon keepers. Getting to play as the antagonist is a fun twist, which is made even better by the excellent voice work and the game's sense of humour. This is a must-play! There's a good reason this game is so beloved, and while graphically it's surely outdated, it's no less playable today as it was back then.

Outstanding

I thoroughly enjoyed playing through this game and would highly recommend it. I'd also recommend playing the game with the KeeperFX mod, as it fixes bugs, improves the balance, and makes the game generally run a lot better than it does with DOSBox. There are still some minor bugs, balancing issues, and grievances with the AI (Imps need a bit of work), but I'm hopeful a future KeeperFX update will remedy this.
