Pick Up Dungeon Keeper For Free Via EA Origin
You can't keep this dungeon! Wait, yes you can.
Fan of Peter Molyneux's Dungeon Keeper? The original, now that awful free-to-play version that popped up not too long ago? Now you can pick it up for free, at least the 1997 version, via EA's Origin service. It's the latest game added to the Origin On the House promotion, so if you're interested you'd better go grab it while you can!
Head to the official page now and make it yours before it ends up changing unexpectedly, as these games tend to do. It normally retails for $5, but is yours for the low price of free during the promotion, which is meant, in EA's words, to "provide a great gaming experience and a way to discover awesome new games."
Dungeon Keeper is actually an excellent way to spend your weekend, and if you're not already knee-deep in something else like Mafia III or games of that ilk (it's getting ready to be a ridiculously full fall) you'll be happy you went ahead and locked it in.

Poor original got converted to IAP?
Also, that headline graphic isn't from the original. The original uses old VGA reg. I think I grabbed it from GOG, and the visuals haven't aged well at all. I found it really hard to play.-

That's what I said. The screen is from some other game. Looks kinda like DK, but it's certainly not the original.

Very similar games. In fact, Dungeons tries to be the spiritual successor to DK.-
Yeah wtf I was just about to post that screenshot isn't DK.
Dungeons tried to copy the style and theme of Dungeon Keeper but the gameplay is nowhere near. They really kind of bigged themselves up as being like DK back in the day and I really hated what I played of it because it just didn't live up to that.
War for the Overworld is a true spiritual successor.
In other news, fuck yeah DK is awesome.
