For Horny it's best to keep him in the Temple to stave his temper, in-between that just drop a small handful of gold to lower his anger.

Shortly after the game launched in 97 they pushed a patch that fixed a bug with the keeper AI, however most people (myself included) had no idea and never downloaded it. The bug would cause enemy keepers to become passive and basically do nothing. Keeperfx includes this bug fix

If you set your computer calendar to a full moon date you can play the moon level at any time!

24:01 I absolutely adore the ice levels 😍

I also had Munchkinland! Played DK sonce I was like 2 since my parents had it

I don't understand such a good game so deeply that I have to close it

Minecraft

Don’t u just love a good pair of dark haired scissors?

Oh what a memories 😎

This looks great on my 77" TV!

damn short list

Stealing a thief in flowerhat was always my favourite as a kid, train them past level 10 to a knight and transfer it and solo everything with possession. Fun times.

I actually came stumbling in to this video because I remembered Dungeon Keeper 2 and playing it when I was a wee lad. Was debating snagging a copy and just wanted to get a feel of the game first.

Limgrave is the best area

How did you get the quality so high? On my computer the game looks blocky and square.

I WANT IT BACK COME ONNN is 2024 it was one of the best mobile games :@ it had players base and hot revenue good :@

War for the Overworld! They even got Richard Ridings back as narrator. It's the closest thing to DK3 we'll ever get. And don't get me started on the "Dungeons" series. That is just Evils Genius with an Aliexpress skin. Passive wave defence with none of the actual game mechanics, writing, voice talent or depth.

2023 I miss this game 💔

I was sure the kill-the-imps bonus level with the boulders and hellhound gave you a level 10 vampire, not a dark mistress, in both the original and KeeperFX. Maybe they changed it since I last played through?

One of my all time favourite games, I was around 7 or 8 when I first played it I think. I bought it a couple years ago from GOG and was surprised how good it still was, I replay it every once in a while. When I was young I especially loved mimicking all the sounds, like the creatures warcries and the create-imp-spell sound (nyo-hoh-hoh!) It was the funniest thing ever to me 😂

I used to love possessing a creature that could use the wind spell, going into the lair, and blasting all the creatures towards the corner where there were two corners from each wall touching, but not a third block behind the two. So, when you blew loads of creatures towards it, some got pushed through, causing the map to be discovered. Then, I'd drop an imp down and discover the full dungeon without leaving my own.

Gof of war

Fligt simulator !!!

Argh! need to play this again, so good! I did work experience at Bullfrog when they were developing Dungeon Keeper 2 and it inspired me to get into the industry, so sad that they shut their doors

Bro finally played Titanfall 2 ♡

Anyone else not even realise there were catacombs in the concecrated snowfield?

Cast Sight Of Evil on areas to gain sight of them , you can cast some spells if you gain sight , like Lightning or Destroy Walls .

Hey , I enjoy editing the level txt files & using only Fairies . They are GODLIKE ! 8 of them at level 10 , kill everything at once . They have Freeze to stop melee creatures , and kill the enemy with Lightning , Meteor & Drain . Jesus Christ , they are unstoppable , weak in defense though . If the enemy get to close , and Freeze is in cooldown , grab her & drop her somewhere far again to continue killing . 😂 It's fun messing around . I made enemy AIs pool of creatures for every level , bug (Beetle) or Tentacle . Never Fly though , they are irritating AF . 😂 Overall , DK is amazing ! I spend countless time modifying the txt files , experiment with all sorts of creatures . It's like tag team you know , see which creature work well with another creature in combat . Like I'll use a tanky creature like Bile Demon , and supply him with spellcasters like Warlock or Wizard (convert him if you didn't edit the level txt files) , or just Dark Mistress . Call to arms with Dark Mistress or Vampire , I learnt this at Skybird Thrill . Yeah , the hard way . 😂

very informative video thx!

"It felt a bit cruel" Lol.

I still think that the secret full moon level was a masterpiece of game play.

No shit Minecraft has been around for years..... Why wouldn't work im ultra wide?

Apparently the scavenger room is named such because a company called Scavenger kept trying to poach Bullfrog developers. It was originally called the Observatory Room, which more explains the eyes I suppose.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Minecraft was inspired by many things, including, Dungeon Keeper. Minecraft, like Skyrim, wants to be played on every platform ever so that nobody forgets it - I mean all 3 games mentioned still hold up I think, but, imagine if Dungeon Keeper had that level of PR?

"this game (insert name) is up there with my all time favorite games" lol

As a kid I too was obsessed with this game, then somehow I managed to corrupt my install but it was playable, instead of being greeted with the menu it would send me to a random map not part of the campaign or expansions, those maps wouldn't even have a win condition either, you would kill the enemy keeper/human and nothing would happen, sometimes it was a map with no enemy at all. Years later now as a software engineer myself, I guess I somehow managed to trigger the testing/debugging mode, so I was playing maps not intended for your average end consumer.

i like dK2 more tbh, i played online for a long time before EA took over bullfrog and dk died a slow dead because of a lack of updates, my wife loved dk more

Just playing this again after about 10 years. Still a fantastic game and one of my all time favourites.

love this game. do deeper dungeons review next

Bethesda games once you manually change the resolution in the .ini files, and crank it up to ultra with FOV set to 105. It's a good time.

This game was one of my favorites. Just picked up the 1.0 release of Keeper RL and so far it's fun... But I miss the 3d style top down view.

Great list, cheers 😊

Legacy looks great 👌🔥

I love how ethereal and natural Miquella’s haligtree is! It’s my favourite followed by Liunia Nokron Siofra river and Limgrave

Not sure about the favourite level but Horned Reaper from DKII is probably my most favourite monster bad guy of all times. I wish we could see him in a movie that would have dark humor, just like the Interview with Horned Reaper that i saw at least thousand times as a child :) Proper DKIII would do as well of course...

Is Dungeon Keeper as good as you remember? Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Actually, it's even better.

I played it as a child, I also played it again not to long ago, it is still very fun! Even if it is rough around the edges.

with dk 1. I feel like I'm a god at the game, so I stopped playing, but I gotta say despite loving it, the game has its moments. I never liked the music, the combat is wonky, also possesion spell can be pretty op, and can carry you.

Miss this too much..

thank you soy sauce for this incredible video about the best game of the 90's (maybe only half-life can compete).
