A Dungeon Keeper browser game clone

First, its in beta, so its not 100% finished yet. And yes, you'll need to be on Facebook to play it.



Here is a video showing what Dungeon Overlord is all about...sort of like a tuturial/review of it.

Graphics/animation are nice. Music and sound could be improved. Music needs more variety as he said in the video, its one song that just loops over and over, but you can turn it off at least.



Here is the link to the game: http://apps.facebook.com/dungeonoverlord/

     Totally lost my interest at the facebook part, hate those waste of space sites with a passion.

     It was a good game though, actually tried installing it after getting a new pc, but it's not win7 compatible :(

    Me too on the facebook comment.  Soon as I read that I lost all interest... sorry man.

    No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

    After I read and watch youtube, I almost wanted to play the game. But in the other hand I hope they created this game not to be on facebook. I always have a hardtime in opening games in facebook too laggy for me.

    No thanks. As much as I love Dungeon Keeper, I don't love it enough to reactivate my Facebook account.

    People still use Facebook? Crickey!

    To echo the posts above every ounce of intrigue left me when I read the dreaded word; 'Facebook'.

     

    Thanks, but no thanks.

     

    Sorry.

    You should all watch this video, it's a bit long...but fits perfectly for this thread

    I don't get all the Facebook hate, though. Its as anti-social as texting people or using email...nothing different from FB and emails. I always hear how anti-social FB makes people...but emails make people even more anti-social.

    Its getting horrible reviews across the board, from players and gaming sites. And you don't even build dungeons, it's all pre-made stuff.

    Yeah, 67 is a D... and from the looks of it, the D is for Disappointing.

    I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?

    Thanks for the warning. It seemed from the videos you could. I saw a hand marking some rock to be mined.

    lost me with the facebook thing......

  • HerodesHerodes Member UncommonPosts: 1,494

    Can you open an account there using a 10-minute-email? Or will the email be checked frequently? Never touched Facebook before.

    I don't have it personally, my friend bought it so I played it at his place...from what I saw, there may be some building later on...but most if not all of it is pre-built. That was the biggest draw back for me. It seemed like it was meant to be based off Dungeon Keeper, but ended up being something completely different. If you are looking for a game like DK, Dungeons isn't it...if you are looking for more of hack and slash gameplay, then Dungeons may be an okay game.

     

    Not at the price they want for it, though.

     

    I was greatly disappointed with Dungeons, thinking it was going to be like DK2. But its far from it. I guess if you go in expecting it not be like DK, it may be better...but meh

     

    And I used a 10 minute email for FB, worked fine. That was a while back, though...but should still work.

    Dungeon Keeper raped in order to become Farmville. Thx SOE.

    This crap by them is exactly why I fear for EQnext.

    That game will be Freerealms with a EQ skin judging by the way they are acting.

    why does it have to be in facebook!

    they could have made good money selling it as a stand alone game.

    All facebook games i play are so slow even if i use chrome
