About Dungeons

✦ AI summary

Play as an evil Dungeon Lord building your underground lair, luring adventurers with treasure and battles before harvesting their souls for dark power. Navigate treacherous politics with your incompetent bosses, fend off rival dungeon lords, and execute a revenge plot against your ex while managing goblin workers and customizing your demonic domain across three levels.

A mighty hero stalks through a dark, dank dungeon making life miserable for hordes of pitiable monsters as he steals anything and everything not bolted to the floor. Been there, done that - about a thousand times? Then it is definitely time to switch sides and show that hero just who's who in the dungeon!

Assume the role of a mighty (and mighty evil) Dungeon Lord and create your own diabolical demesnes underground. Dim-witted goblin workers tremble as they await your orders and dig corridors and rooms into the rock at your command.

Heroes will visit your dungeon in search of battle and treasure. Naturally, you could always just annihilate them with a snap of your fingers. But isn't it more entertaining and deliciously evil to watch them attain their heart's desire - and then take take it ALL away?

So throw them a few treasures and some equipment, give them a couple of fights for entertainment and cherish and look after them. And once they are finally happy enough - it's time for the "harvest". For happy heroes have more valuable soul energy for you to gleefully extract from them in your prison or torture chamber!

But even though these self-proclaimed warriors for the good are not much more than an excellent source of resources for you, you still should not underestimate them. If you've beaten up too many of their friends, the powerful and vindictive Champions will occasionally make their way to your Dungeon. Perhaps a small sum could persuade them to forget their moral and ethical principles for once?

In addition to the heroes, you should also always keep an wary eye on the underground. For the competition never sleeps, and other Dungeon Lords would like to claim your territory for themselves. As if that were not enough, another Dungeon Lord lives one level below you who, to top it all off, is also your boss and bombards you with useless tasks! Of course, it goes without saying that malicious and sneaky beings such as yourself are already hard at work trying to take his place!

The game revolves around Deimos, foremost of all Dungeon Lords. He falls victim to a devious plot hatched by his vile, nasty, thoroughly vicious ex-girlfriend Calypso, and suddenly finds himself at the bottom of the hierarchy and the top of the dungeon once again.

As the story proceeds Deimos tries to regain his old place and have his well-deserved revenge on Calypso. First, however, he will have to deal with his new bosses. On the one hand, there's the Zombie King, who is about as intelligent as your average undead zombie is likely to be, and on the other there's hot-blooded Minos, who likes to solve problems using violence or, alternatively, more violence.
  • Be insidious! Three different Boss Monsters await in order to give you a real hard time. Get rid of them to become the one and only Dungeon Lord!
  • Get ready for a fight! 10 different classes of heroes dare to enter your dungeon where 15 different monsters lurk in the dark.
  • The 17 campaign missions demand your whole cunningness as evil dungeon lord. If you manage to survive them there's still the custom game waiting for you.
  • In a dungeons there's only one way: going down. 3 different levels wait to be conquered by you.
  • Prison cells and torture chambers are ready for your command and await “customers”.
  • Create the dungeon of your dreams with 50 different objects.
  • Wimpy goblin workers await your commands and create the dungeon after your wishes.

This is unplayable in 2026 and not worth a purchase. I had constant crashing trying to get into the game. I had to lower my resolution to 1080p to work around that, only to discover that the UI doesn't scale very well at all. The tutorial is a joke as it gives you no real info and other than placing small objects into specific areas, there is no telling what these objects are doing as the heroes walk by them unfazed. It is also incredibly dark, so I had boost the brightness while trying to figure this out. I had hopes it was like Dungeon Keeper as I have some fond memories of that game, but no, this isn't close. I figured I would try the original before spending money on the current release (4). Glad I did and am now looking for the refund request.

Here you go, all the Review you'd ever need for this game, A lot of people have bagged this game out but fail to see it for what it was, The playtime for this game is the entire Campaign, around 14 - 15 hours. I'll lay everything in dot point for TLDR: - This game is quirky and has a moderate amount of depth - A variety of units and enemies but could do with more. - This game was obviously a sandbox of idea's all of which had to be compounded at the end of rushed release - The game is Front loaded with "Time based missions" to pad out the playtime, without it, the game would likely be around 8 hours of gameplay and "Story" - The Main Antagonist is obviously some poor art students idea of his ideal girlfriend. - the lack of Ability to play outside the games expected play style is disappointing. - This game has a guise of being more then it is, but getting towards the end game, you can see that it struggles performance wise, when you have a dungeon full of monsters, heroes and 20 odd goblins, it CHUGS. - I had one crash at the end game fight on Windows 10 with a mid tier system, it deleted my previous save somehow but besides that no other issues, though I played maybe a mission or t…

Out of all the Dungeon games this is the worst one, do not waste your time and get Dungeons 2-4 which are better than this one.

Quite the interesting tower defense. Nice humor, neat concepts. This is not at all linked to the rest of the series.
