War for the Overworld x Dungeon Keeper Bundle
What is it that they say? Ah yes "Evil things always come in threes". War for the Overworld now joins Dungeon Keeper 1 & 2 to form a triumvirate of dungeon building experiences fiendishly forged to sate your dark desires. https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/53030/Dungeon_Keeper_x_War_for_the_Overworld/ This bundle is a "complete your collection" affair, dynamically providing 15% off in addition to any other discounts the games inside have. It's the perfect opportunity to complete your dungeon building collections! For that matter, both Dungeon Keeper games are currently 50% off themselves so if you already own WFTO there's no better time to pick them up than right now, leveraging that sweet additional discount from the new bundle! Try not to tarry Underlord, as the sale does end in just over a week. But rest assured the bundle and its 15% discount will remain for the foreseeable future.
As you're no doubt aware War for the Overworld itself has a long history, starting all the way back in 2009 on the Keeper Klan forums so we've long been a part of the communities which surround this space. So we have a few fine fiends we'd like to introduce you to.
Should you wish to strike out in Dungeon Keeper 1 we can heartily recommend checking out our long-term friends at KeeperFX. KeeperFX is an open-source remake which improves the original Dungeon Keeper drastically with modernisations, bug fixes, new features, multiplayer, mod support and perhaps even some ideas pilfered with gusto from our very vaults.
Grab KeeperFX Here! It's probably the best way to play Dungeon Keeper 1 today, and all you need is a legitimate copy of the original game. How fortunate it is then that it is on sale right now in the very bundle above!
Meanwhile for those who prefer Dungeon Keeper 2 we recommend casting your gaze upon Dialight's Flame a new project which similarily aims to fix some of Dungeon Keeper 2's issues by modifying the game code. Grab Flame Here! You can even play multiplayer again, time to brush off those old tomes and learn new metas with your Black Knights, Wizards and Dark Elves. If you need any help with either of these then we highly recommend you join the Keeper Klan community on Discord. Please be aware that the Keeper Klan forums and discord as well as the projects listed are community-driven efforts and not associated with Brightrock Games, Mythwright or Electronic Arts. We at Brightrock just wanted to raise awareness for these cool community efforts bringing these old games back on modern systems.

Tired of invading dungeons? It's time you build your own!
Do you feel you are in a slump? Monotonously disembowelling evil guys in endless quests for gold and a slightly better pair of boots? You are starting to wonder... are heroics really your calling? Welcome to the War for the Overworld!
War for the Overworld is a Dungeon Management Game that employs your favourite aspects of the RTS and God Game genres. You play an all-powerful, malevolent Underlord, long banished to the Aether. With unrivalled dark power and an insatiable desire for bloody conquest, you will arise once more, and reclaim your realm!
In your absence, the Underworld lost its way. It became feeble and afraid of the Empire of the Overworld, which grew strong and boldly comfortable in its quiet retirement from evil-slaying. Carve out your dungeon from the soil and stones of the Underworld, and build dozens of unique rooms to attract a myriad of creatures to your halls to work and fight for you.
In addition to your faithful followers, you have destructive spells and powerful rituals to cast upon any unsuspecting goodly Hero (or rival Underlord) who dares to breach your unhallowed halls. With your unmatched dark powers and mighty army of bloodthirsty minions, you are ready for your War for the Overworld!
