      Dungeon Keeper 2 is good in its own way but definitely lost some of its original magic.

      There was an indie series called Overlord (I think, can’t quite recall) which tried to be a Cities: Skyline type homage to Dungeon Keeper. I played it many years ago and it did scratch the same itch so you might be interested.

        Yeah dk2 was just… overly complicated and ugly. The story behind it’sfascinating, it really was a rush incomplete job.

        War for the overworld was the spiritual sucession, it’s fantastic. But if your heart is for the original, keeperfx.

      “Buffy Oak. A small location where the people just sit around all day and enjoy each other’s company. They talk, laugh, and sing without ever arguing, drawing daggers, and dying in a gurgling rush of blood. A truly bizarre place.”

      Another amazing one.

      Ohhh, and the original Diablo. Tristram was such a familiar place after a while.

        I fucking love bullfrogs stuff so much. That and worldbuilders like Pharaoh, Rise of the middle kingdom, zeus, etc…
