    A fabulous game. Normally remakes of games never go so well in my opinion, but this truly surpasses the original (Dungeon Keeper) The only down side is that it had to end! I bought all expansions and completed all achievements. I'm patiently waiting for further releases.

    A brilliant spiritual successor to DK2 and adds a lot of different features which improve on what was a really great game that I played all through my childhood.

    Awful awful game. I quit on the second level. First tutorial level fine, shows you how to build stuff. Second tutorial level: Ahhh now you need to build this....... Before you can figure out how to build it: It's payday, pay your minions or they will leave!.... Before you can figure out how: Enemies are coming to attacking your base, set a rally point!.... Then midway through the battle some of your own minions…
