INSTALLING DUNGEON KEEPER GOLD

When you install Dungeon Keeper Gold, you will install both Dungeon Keeper™ and The Deeper
Dungeons™ at the same time. The Dungeon Keeper™ Editor will not be installed. To install this,
please refer to the readme.txt file in the Editor subdirectory of the Dungeon Keeper™ Gold CD.

WINDOWS® 95

Note: If you already have Dungeon Keeper installed on your hard disk, it is a good idea to
uninstall it before installing Dungeon Keeper Gold. This is because Dungeon Keeper Gold will
automatically install both Dungeon Keeper™ and The Deeper Dungeons™ at the same time. If you
have any save games you want to keep, move the contents of the Keeper save directory to a safe
place, uninstall Dungeon Keeper and then install Dungeon Keeper Gold. Then copy the contents
of your old save directory into the new save directory.

When you are in Windows, insert the Dungeon Keeper Gold CD into the CD drive. Windows 95
will automatically detect the disc and run the installation program. Follow the simple
instructions on the screen to install Dungeon Keeper Gold.

If Windows 95 fails to recognise the Dungeon Keeper Gold CD, just run setup on the root of the
CD and the installation will begin.

Running Dungeon Keeper

To run Dungeon Keeper, click on the Start button and go to the Programs menu. Go up to the
Bullfrog menu and then to the Dungeon Keeper Gold menu. Click on the Play Dungeon Keeper
option.

Please refer to the Dungeon Keeper manual for more information on the game.

Running The Deeper Dungeons

To run The Deeper Dungeons, click on the Start button and go to the Programs menu. Go up to
the Bullfrog menu and then to the Dungeon Keeper Gold menu. Click on the Play The Deeper
Dungeons option.

You can play the levels included with The Deeper Dungeons in any order but bear in mind that
they are harder and more challenging than those in Dungeon Keeper. It is recommended that you
play Dungeon Keeper first before attempting The Deeper Dungeons.

THE DEEPER DUNGEONS

EVIL NEVER SLEEPS...

The world is under your total domination. The Avatar and his band of happy followers lie dead
and rotting at your feet. Your power is complete, millions of demonic creatures obey your every
command and weak, pitiful subjects quake in your presence. Depravity and evil rule and you are
master...

Doomsday, the anniversary of your great victory, and the land is preparing for an orgy of blood
and mayhem. Late at night, grave news reaches your ear and you realise your dominion is in
danger from the last place you expected. The Avatar has returned, reincarnated by some
misguided Knights who escaped the slaughter of your first victory. They have taken over many of
the caverns that lie hidden below the surface of the world and have mustered a new army. You
must strike first and wipe them out once and for all.

NEW FEATURES

The following features have been included in the Deeper Dungeons Data Disc:

• Fifteen new levels to test your strength and cunning.

• Fifteen new multiplayer levels to play against your friends and slaughter their pitiful armies.

• New dungeon graphics.

• Improved Artificial Intelligence for the enemy Dungeon Keepers. Improvements include:

- Enemy Keepers will now sell doors and traps to gain revenue.

- Enemy Keepers preserve their gold.

- Gold finding abilities are greatly improved.

• Miscellaneous enhancements that include:

- Creatures no longer teleport to unexplored areas of the map.

- Parties who have had their leader killed now choose a new leader and continue their quest.

- Improved creature AI.

PLAYING MULTIPLAYER MAPS AS A SINGLE PLAYER

You can also play the multiplayer maps even if you are a lone single player. If you choose this
option, computer players will replace your absent opponents. To do this, click on the Start button
and select the Run option. Type in the location of Dungeon Keeper on your hard disk and add

-1player on the end e.g. c:\program files\bullfrog\keeper\keeper95.exe -1player. When the

Dungeon Keeper Main Menu appears, click on the Multiplayer button and you will see a new
option below the normal network options called 1 Player. Click on this option and you will enter
the Multiplayer Levels Map. Click on any flag to start that level.

You can do the same on The Deeper Dungeons by typing deeper95.exe instead of keeper95.exe.
Warning: This is an unsupported feature and was therefore omitted from the original manual.

Bullfrog™ or Electronic Arts™ do not take any responsibility for incompatible levels or other errors
related with this feature.

DUNGEON KEEPER EDITOR MANUAL
AMENDMENTS

The following are amendments to the Dungeon Keeper Editor Manual supplied with Dungeon
Keeper Gold:

PLAYING YOUR SINGLE PLAYER LEVELS

In the manual it says that you can play your newly created levels by using the command
keeper95 -level xxx (where xxx is the number of the level). Unfortunately, this is incorrect. The
only way to play your levels is by using only The Deeper Dungeons and adding your level to it’s
own list of single levels.

3

To do this, go to the Levels subdirectory of your Keeper directory on your hard disk. In there, you
will find a file called Ddiskmp.lof. Open this file with Notepad and you will see that all the
Deeper Dungeons levels are listed here. On each line of the list, the number is the level number
and after the comma is the name of the level. You will need to add yours to the end by entering
it’s level number and name. Once you have done this, save Ddiskmp.lof. and close it. Then, when
you next start The Deeper Dungeons, your level will be on the single player level list.

EDITING THE K

EEPER.CFG

To edit the Keeper.cfg file, which you need to alter when you install the Dungeon Keeper Editor,
you must use Notepad. To do this, double click on the file and Windows 95 will ask you what
program you want to use to edit it. Scroll down the list of programs and find Notepad. Select this
and click on OK. You will then be able to edit the Keeper.cfg file.

DUNGEON KEEPER DIRECT 3D

The Dungeon Keeper Direct 3D version supports 3D accelerator cards using the Direct3D standard.
You can play the Direct 3D version if you have a 3D accelerator card and you have DirectX5 or
greater installed. If you do not have an accelerator card, you should play the standard version of
Dungeon Keeper.

For the minimum specification and the machines supported by the Direct 3D version, please read
the ReadMeD3D.txt which can be found in the DK-D3D directory of the Dungeon Keeper Gold
CD. Before you install the Direct 3D version, make sure your machine is one of those supported.

INSTALLATION

Note: before installing Dungeon Keeper Direct 3D, you will first need to install Dungeon Keeper
Gold.

First insert your Dungeon Keeper Gold CD. Leave your computer alone for a moment and wait for
the Dungeon Keeper Menu to appear. Click on exit to remove it. Next, double left click on the My
Computer icon on your Windows Desktop. Find the icon for your CD drive (normally labelled D: )
and right click on it. This will bring up the icon’s menu. Left click on the Open option and you
will see the contents of the Dungeon Keeper Gold CD. Double left click on the Install Keeper
Direct3D icon and follow the onscreen instructions. The installation program will know where
you installed Dungeon Keeper and will ask you to confirm.

If you do not have DirectX5, you will be asked whether or not you want to install it. Dungeon
Keeper Direct 3D requires DirectX5 or later for it to work and will not work with DirectX3 or
earlier.

To run Dungeon Keeper Direct 3D, click on the Start button, go into Program Files and find the
Bullfrog folder. In the Bullfrog folder will be a folder called Dungeon Keeper - Direct 3D. Enter
this folder and select Dungeon Keeper Direct 3D.

READMED3D.TXT

If you have any problems with the installation or running the Direct3D version of Dungeon
Keeper, please refer to the ReadMeD3D.txt. To read this file, go to the Dungeon Keeper Direct 3D
folder of the Bullfrog folder in your Start Menu and select Readme Direct3D.

There are many potential complexities involved with the Direct3D version due to the variety of
hardware 3D accelerators in existence. Please consult this readme file for the very latest
information about your card.

4

3D Accelerator Cards Supported

Please see the Readme Direct3D file for the latest information. Dungeon Keeper Direct3D runs on
most Direct3D accelerator cards with DirectX5 support. This list includes, but is not limited to,
cards based on the following chipsets: 3Dfx-Voodoo, nVidia-RIVA128, ATI-RagePro,
Videologic/NEC PowerVR-PCX2 and 3DLabs-Permedia2.

HELP AND FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

VIEWING DUNGEON KEEPER IN HIGH RESOLUTION

To view Dungeon Keeper in high resolution, press ALT-R. Please note that this feature requires a
PC with sixteen megabytes to run. If you press Alt-r and the game does not change resolution
then you do not have enough memory. Note that the Direct3D version will only run in high
resolution mode.

You also require more than eight megabytes to enable the special lens effects when Possessing
certain creatures.

GHOSTS

Contrary to the manual, Ghosts do not float through doors or walls for gameplay reasons.

DEMON SPAWN BECOMING DRAGONS

Demon Spawn do become Dragons but only on certain levels in the game. As the Dragon is a very
powerful creature, this feature was removed from certain levels to make them more of a
challenge.

C

ANCELLING CALL TO

A

RMS

Trouble is often encountered when cancelling the Call to Arms spell. This small section explains
how to use it properly:

When you click on the Call to Arms icon, your mouse pointer changes to a waving flag and you
will be in ‘cast’ mode.

CLICKING THE LEFT MOUSE BUTTON

When you click the left mouse button on the ground for the first time, a flag will appear. Do not
click the right mouse button yet. Any creatures near the flag will enter a trance and walk
towards the flag.

When you first cast the spell on the ground, you pass from ‘cast’ mode to ‘move’ mode. The
‘move’ mode means that you can move the flag around by left clicking on the ground elsewhere.

Any creatures already under the influence of the flag will try and get to it even if they are on the
other side of the map. This feature enables you to move the flag around your dungeon, by left
clicking on the floor, collecting all your creatures into a small army. Then, by placing the flag on
the other side of the map in your enemy’s dungeon, your creatures will walk across the map to
the flag and into the enemy dungeon.

5

CLICKING THE RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON

If you click the right mouse button when you are in ‘move’ mode, all you will do is take your
mouse pointer out of ‘move’ mode. You will not cancel the spell as the Call to Arms flag is still
active in the dungeon, attracting creatures. This feature enables you to keep the Call to Arms
going, cast different spells or build rooms, and then return to the Call to Arms later.

If you click the right mouse button before you cast the spell on the ground (while you are still in
‘cast’ mode’) you will just cancel the casting of the spell and your mouse pointer will return to
normal.

If you have clicked the right mouse button when in ‘move’ mode, by clicking on the spell’s icon
on the Control Panel again, you will re-enter ‘move’ mode and you will be able to reposition the
flag once more.

CANCELLING THE CALL TO ARMS SPELL

To actually cancel the Call to Arms spell, your mouse pointer must be a waving flag (in ‘move’
mode). Then you have to click the spell’s button on the Control Panel. The flag will the disappear
and your creatures will return to their normal jobs. You will have returned to ‘cast’ mode and you
will be able to recast the spell. If you want to, by clicking the right mouse button you will return
your mouse pointer to normal.

If you have clicked the right mouse button after casting the spell, then you will need to click the
spell’s button twice: once to re-enter ‘move’ mode and a second time to cancel the spell for
good.

Remember: You can increase the range of the Call to Arms spell by holding down the left mouse
button when you cast it or move it.

Also, the spell does not cost any money if cast on your own land. If you cast it on enemy ground,
then you will have to pay. If you cast the spell on an enemy room, your creatures will destroy
that room when they get to it.

Note: The Sight of Evil spell works in exactly the same way.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the realm of the Dungeon Keeper. This is your world. Above ground all might be peace and
harmony, but deep in the bowels of the earth you rule over a realm of chaos and violence. Your task is to
plan, dig and manage Dungeons with which to lure explorers with the promise of untold wealth. You also
have to attract an army of evil creatures to do your bidding and, if you keep them fed, housed and paid,
you can train them in combat and call on them to deal with the interlopers.

Different rooms attract certain creatures, so how you design the Dungeon directly affects the type of
creatures who join your fight against the common good. You also need to dig for gold as this is the only
thing that the creatures are interested in (loyalty is not a concept they understand). Each land is ruled
over by a Lord who you have to defeat to force his realm into submission. You may also have to fight
against rival Dungeon Keepers who know every underhand method in the book and are desperate to
gain control of both your gold and your creatures. It’s going to require all your wits and wisdom, as well
as all your back-stabbing craftiness, to finally gain control of every realm and prove yourself to be the
supreme Dungeon Keeper.

The key to exploring the world of Dungeon Keeper is to experiment. Everything interacts with everything
else and if you have an idea, no matter how outlandish, try it. You might find that you’ve discovered
something to guarantee your victory over the foul forces of good.

Note: Section 2.0 Before the Game can be found in the Ref Card.

3.0 PLAYING THE GAME

You are now in the main game of Dungeon Keeper. This section of the manual takes you through all the
game’s aspects, explaining the control panels, the different rooms and spells and how to get the best from
your creatures.

The Screen is split into two sections: The Control Panel to the left and the
Dungeon View to the right.

The Control Panel has a map at the top which displays a limited view of your

Under the map are five panels which can be selected by left-clicking on the icon tabs attached to each
panel. The panels are (from left to right): Information, Rooms, Research, Workshop and Creatures. See
the Control Panel section (section 4.0) later in the manual for more information.

The Dungeon View displays all of your Dungeon. Use this view to place rooms and control your
creatures. For more information, see the Dungeon View section (section 11.0) later in the manual.

Dungeon. This is centred on you’re current position in the Dungeon View.

Pop-up icons appear at the edge of the Control Panel from time to time. When
clicked on, these bring up important information about your dungeon, for
example a new discovery, a new creature or a battle involving your creatures.
See the Pop-up Icons section (section 10.0) for more information.

6

Each time you put your mouse over an icon or part of your dungeon, a scrolling
Tooltip appears telling you what it is, how to use it and where in the manual it is
mentioned and explained. You can also play the game in high resolution by pressing

ALT-R.

3.1 MOVING AROUND

You can scroll around the Dungeon by pressing the cursor keys or by moving the mouse to the edge
of the screen. To rotate the map, hold down the right Ctrl key and press the left or right cursor key
(or delete/page down). To zoom in and out, hold down the right Ctrl key and press the up cursor key
to zoom in and the down cursor key to zoom out (or home/end). By doing both (e.g. holding down
the up arrow and moving the mouse to the top edge of the screen) you can move at twice the speed.
Holding down Shift and pressing the cursor keys scrolls you at twice the speed.

For right-handed players, it’s best to use these keys with your left hand (your middle three fingers
on the cursor keys and your little finger on the right Ctrl key) and leave your right hand free for the
mouse. Left-handed players can use the same setup but with opposite hands.

For more information on the keys in the game, see the Keys section (section 33.0) later in the
manual.

3.2 THE OPTIONS PANEL

The Options Panel can be accessed by pressing the Esc key at the top left
of your keyboard or simply by clicking on the panel. The panel has six
icons on it: Load, Save, Graphics, Sound, Computer Assistance and Quit.

3.2.1 LOAD AND SAVE

Load restores the games previously saved on the Save menu. Left-click on the relevant icon to
bring up each panel.

To load a game, left-click on the slot you want to load.

To save a game, click on a slot and change the text in it to your chosen
filename. Now press Enter to save.

7

3.2.2 GRAPHICS

Graphics contains five options with which you can configure your game:
Shadows, View Distance, View Type, Wall Height and Gamma Correction.

Shadows has five settings and determines the maximum number of shadows
each creature can cast. The default is four.

View Distance sets how far your Dungeon is drawn from the centre of the
Dungeon View, which directly affects the speed of the game. Its default setting
is maximum size.

View Type toggles between the two types of view available in Keeper. The
default view has warped walls and can be rotated. By left-clicking on the icon
you enter a fast, forced perspective view which is quicker but has straight
walls and can only be rotated through 90 degrees.

Wall Height enables you to make the walls one block high so that they are
easier to see over. This can help when viewing your creatures.

Gamma Correction has five settings each one of which makes the screen a bit
brighter. The default setting is lowest.

8

3.2.3 SOUND

Sound contains two bars with which you can set the volumes; the
sound effects volume is at the top and the music at the bottom.

3.2.4 COMPUTER ASSISTANCE

You may select four different types of Computer Assistance. Each
performs a different task for you, such as building your dungeon,
laying traps or moving your creatures around. The default assistant is
Aggressive.

Aggressive Computer Assistance constructs your dungeon, lays traps, casts
spells and always tries to attack the enemy players.

Defensive Computer Assistance also constructs your dungeon, lays traps and
casts spells but never goes out to attack the enemy.

Construction Only Computer Assistance only builds rooms and lays traps and
isn’t able to cast spells or move creatures around.

Move Only Computer Assistance only moves creatures and slaps them.

9

3.2.5 QUIT

Quit takes you back to the Level Map.

You are then asked to confirm that you want to quit the game.
To exit from the panel or any of the sub-panels, click the right mouse

button or press the Esc key.

4.0 THE CONTROL PANEL

4.1 THE DYNAMIC MAP

[Map Screen Options Panel Computer Assistant Increase scale Decrease scale
Compass points]

The Dynamic Map on the Control Panel is centred on your Dungeon View and

button on the map, the Dungeon View jumps to that area. At the edge of the map are four letters
marking the four points of the compass so that you know in which direction you are facing.

There is a dotted line stretching from the centre of the map. This always points directly at your
Dungeon Heart, the core of your Dungeon. The red areas are tiles owned by you and the grey areas
around these tiles are the reinforced walls. Yellow tiles indicate the presence of gold or gems and
dark grey tiles are impenetrable rock. Creatures appear on the map as black flashing dots while
heroes appear as white dots. Any multi-coloured flashing squares on the map represent as-yet
unclaimed rooms, for example: Portals.

You can left-click on the map to zoom the Dungeon View to that place.
To the right of the map are two icons marked with a + and -. Clicking on these decreases or incre a s e s

4.1.1 THE MAP SCREEN

This screen displays your entire Dungeon and the area around it which
you can dig through. Visually, it is the same as the Dynamic Map on
the Control Panel. If you are battling against an enemy Keeper, you

his or her Dungeon appear on the map in the appropriate colour.
If you left-click on any part of the map, the screen closes and the Dungeon View recentres itself.

right-clicking on the map acts as an exit and takes you back to the Dungeon View without
altering your position.

Attached to the mouse is a spy window which gives you a more detailed view of the area under
your mouse. Also in this view, instead of appearing as dots, all the creatures are shown by their
individual pictures and experience levels.

Move your mouse pointer over a room and a tool-tip appears giving you the name and, if
available, information on that room.

can see any part of his or her Dungeon you have discovered. Parts of

4.2 MONEY

Just beneath the map are some gold digits denoting the total amount of
gold you have to spend. Watch this figure carefully - you need to use your
Imps to dig out some more gold if it becomes too low.

11

5.0 THE INFORMATION PANEL

At the top of the information panel there are two icons indicating the Creature Tendencies.
These tell a creature what to do in the event of a battle. Both can be selected at once as they do
not conflict with one other. The Creature Tendencies icons are:

5.1 IMPRISON

This is only available if you have built a Prison. This tells creatures to take enemy
heroes or creatures to the Prison instead of killing them. For more information on
the Prison see section 17.10.

5.2 FLEE

This tells the creatures to run away if they are too badly damaged.

5.3 PAYDAY BAR

Below these icons is the Payday Bar. This bar increases gradually over
time and, when it reaches its peak, all of your creatures receive their wages
from your Treasure Room.

new item. The length of time it takes depends on the size of your Research Room (the Library) or the
Workshop. It also depends on the number of creatures working on research in the Library.

The following two bars tell you how long it takes to research or build a

12

5.4 RESEARCH TIME BAR

This indicates the length of time for research of a new room or spell to be
completed by the creatures using the Library.

5.5 WORKSHOP TIME BAR

This is the amount of time remaining before the building of a new object in
the Workshop is complete. The Workshop is used for the construction of
traps and doors. Note that you have to build a new trap or door every time
you want to place one in the dungeon.

Under the Time Bars there are two columns of information on each Dungeon Keeper on the map:

5.6 NUMBER OF ROOMS

The number of rooms that the Keeper has in his or her Dungeon.

5.7 NUMBER OF CREATURES

The number of creatures that the Keeper has under his or her control.
If you are alone on the map, as you are on level 1, the only information available is on

your own dungeon. If there are other Keepers on that level their information appears in
their own colours.

5.8 QUERY

Left-click on the Query Button and your mouse pointer changes into a
question mark. You can then query any creature to bring up the Creature
Information Panel. While you are displaying a creature’s information
panel, the Dungeon View follows that creature. You can also query a

creature by holding down Shift and left-clicking on the creature, this will also make you enter the
creature.

See the Creature section (section 22.0) later in the manual for more information on the panel.

13

6.0 THE ROOMS PANEL

The Rooms Panel lists all of the rooms available for you to build on the current level. When you
select a room, a picture icon of that room is displayed.

6.1 SELECTED ROOMS AND INFORMATION

To the left is a picture showing you which room you selected, for example, a bag of
gold for a Treasure Room. Next to the picture are two numbers. The first, in red, is
the amount of rooms you have of that type. The second, in gold, is the amount each
room tile costs to place down.

When you place the first room of any type down, a bar appears to the right
of these numbers. This bar indicates, collectively, how full up all those
rooms are. If all your rooms of that type are full, the bar is at maximum.

6.2 ROOM ICONS

There are fifteen different types of room in Dungeon Keeper and each has its own slot on the panel.
The icons on the panel have four states: blank, question mark, sunken or raised.

6.2.1 BLANK SPACES

14

If the box for the room icon is blank, it means that the room is not available on the
current level.

6.2.2 QUESTION MARKS

If the box has a question mark inside, it means that the room is available for you
to research.

6.2.3 SUNKEN ICON

If the room icon’s box is sunken, it means that you have not built any rooms of
that type yet.

6.2.3 RAISED ICON

If the icon is raised, it means that one or more rooms of that type are available
on that level. You can see all the available rooms by right-clicking on an icon;
this zooms the Dungeon View to each of those rooms in turn.

6.3 LAYING ROOMS

To lay a room, left-click on an icon and move over to the Dungeon View.
Your mouse pointer changes so that you can see the type of room you are
laying. You can only build on areas of Dungeon that you have claimed (a

with the left mouse button to lay the room tile. Many rooms may require a minimum size of three by
three tiles before they function properly, such as the Torture Chamber and the Temple.

To cancel the laying of a room, click the right mouse button and your cursor returns to normal.
See the Rooms section (section 16.0) later in the manual for more information on individual rooms.

tile with a red dot in the centre). Once you have found a good spot, click

6.4 SELLING ROOMS

The last icon on the panel is a dollar sign called the Sell Room Icon. If you left-click
on this and then move the cursor over an already built room, you are able to sell that
room tile and return the square to a normal tile. Note, however, that when you sell a
room you only get back half its original price.

15

7.0 THE RESEARCH PANEL

The Research Panel lists all of the spells available for you to use on the current level. There are
fifteen spells in all that you can research and use in Dungeon Keeper, and each has its own
square on the panel. When a spell has been selected, its picture appears on the panel. It flashes
to show that it has been selected.

7.1 CASTING SPELLS

Some spells need casting directly on a creature, some need to be cast on the Dungeon View and
others are cast automatically.

To pick up a spell, simply left-click on it. If it needs to be cast on a specific
creature, highlight the creature with the cursor and then left-click to cast the
spell. To cast the spell on a specific location in the Dungeon, go to that place
and click the left mouse button.

Each time you pick up a spell, the cursor changes into an icon of that spell so
you can see exactly what you’re casting. You’re often able to hold down the left
mouse button instead of just clicking it and this slowly builds up the power of the
spell to increase its power or longevity.

When a spell is in action on the map, the icon for that spell becomes raised. Clicking
the right mouse button on the spell icon jumps the Dungeon View to the point in the
dungeon at which it is being used. Subsequent clicks with the right mouse button
cycle through any of the spells that are currently active.

16

7.2 CANCELLING A SPELL

To cancel a spell while you’re still holding it, click the right mouse button.
See the Spells section (section 18.0) later in the manual for more information on individual spells.

8.0 THE WORKSHOP PANEL

The Workshop Panel contains all the traps and doors which you can place in your Dungeon.
Each trap or door must be individually constructed in the Workshop by your creatures.

If you select a trap or a door, a picture icon of that door appears with a number beside it. This
number tells you how many of those traps or doors you have available to place. Traps and doors

do not cost anything to place down, but must be manufactured beforehand.

8.1 TRAPS

There are six traps in Dungeon Keeper for you to manufacture.

8.1.1 PLACING TRAPS

To lay down a trap, click on the icon with the left mouse button. Move your
mouse over to the Dungeon View and place the trap where you want it with the
left mouse button. You can only place a trap down on your own tile, so make

click the right mouse button to cancel it.
When a trap is placed, it becomes transparent. This is because an Imp has to go and take it

from the Workshop to the place you have specified.

trap and arms it. Sometimes an Imp may drop a crate it’s carrying because it gets killed or
scared. The crate remains on the ground until another Imp, either yours or an enemy’s, picks it
up. To prevent an enemy stealing your crate, you can drop an Imp onto the crate and it either
takes it back to the Workshop or takes it to a trap if one needs arming.

When a trap has been set in your Dungeon, the trap’s icon on the panel becomes raised. You
can then cycle through all traps of the same type by right-clicking on the icon. Although visible
to your own beady eye, your traps are invisible to enemy Dungeon Keepers and heroes until
triggered. But be warned - the same is true of your enemy’s traps, so move your forces with
caution.

sure that you plan your defences carefully. If you decide against placing a trap,

Imps automatically go and place traps, but you may not want to wait for one
of them to get around to it. Drop an Imp onto the transparent trap and it goes
straight to the Workshop to get it. If you drop an Imp into the Workshop and
onto a square occupied by a trap crate, then the Imp takes it to the nearest

8.2 DOORS

There are four types of door in Dungeon Keeper.
Doors are effective barriers against an enemy, as they have to destroy them

to get through. Your creatures, however, are able to go through your doors

You can only place a door down on your own tiles in a corridor one tile wide.
Select the type of door you want to place down with the left mouse button; the
mouse pointer changes to show your chosen door type. Move the mouse pointer
over the Dungeon View and left-click to place the door down in a valid place.

8.2.2 LOCKING DOORS

If you don’t want your creatures walking through doors, you can lock them.
This allows you to cut off parts of your Dungeon. If you put your mouse over a
door, the pointer changes into a spinning key. Now click the left mouse button
to lock the door; a similar spinning key icon appears over the door to show you

that it is currently locked.
To unlock a door, left-click on the door again and the spinning key icon disappears.

9.0 THE CREATURE PANEL

The Creature Panel gives you information on the activity of your creatures. At the top of the
panel are three icons: idle (a question mark), working (a brick) and fighting (a sword).

Further down the panel is a picture of the type of creature selected and, under the relevant icon,

a number showing how many of your minions are involved in specific activity. The panel can
display six types of creature at a time; if you have more than six, scroll arrows appear at the top and
bottom of the panel enabling you to scroll up and down the list.

9.1 IDLE

This means that the creatures are just existing in your Dungeon and not involved in
anything constructive or useful. They can be asleep in their Lairs or finding food to
eat.

9.2 WORKING

This means that the creature is doing work for you. Imps are busy tunneling,
reinforcing walls, placing traps or digging gold. Other creatures could be in the
Workshop, Training Room or researching in the Library.

19

9.3 FIGHTING

This means that the creature is involved in a battle somewhere.
See the Creatures section (section 22.0) of this manual for more information on

individual creatures and the Picking Up Creatures section (section 22.2.1) on how
to pick up creatures directly from the panel.

10.0 POP-UP ICONS

Pop-up icons appear periodically at the side of the Control Panel. They give you important information
on the status of your Dungeon. There are six different icons: Objective (a question mark), Important
Information (an exclamation mark), a Battle (a sword), New Creature (red creature), Manufactured Item
(a hammer) and Newly Researched Item (a book).

10.1 READING POP-UP ICONS

Left-click to open one of these icons. A transparent window containing a
message appears at the bottom of the screen. On each window are four
icons: Zoom to Area (an eye), Close Window (a tick) and an up and down

depending on the message and its length.
To close the window, left-click on the icon again. The icon remains on the screen until it is deleted.

10.2 DELETING POP-UP ICONS

To get rid of a message, right-click on the Pop-up Icon. Note that you cannot delete an objective
message.

arrow to scroll the text. Some of these icons may not be available

10.3 OBJECTIVE

These messages tell you what you need to do to complete the level, or a certain part of
it, and act like a tutorial. If you discover a new part of the map such as a new area or a
new spell, you are told how to use it in the Objective Window.

If there is a lot of information, use the arrow keys to view all the text.

Left-click on the tick icon to close the window.

10.4 IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The Important Information icon appears if you discover a new area or a
spell.

Left-click on the eye icon to see the new area.

If there are any battles in progress, this flashing icon
appears. It continues to flash until all of the battles are
decided. Each row in the window represents a single battle.

creature’s experience level and below is the creature’s health.

To zoom to any of your creatures, right-click on the creature’s picture. You can also zoom to the
enemy in the same way provided they are on your land.

To pick any of your creatures, left-click on their pictures.
You can cast spells directly onto the creatures and enemies by left-clicking on the spell icon and

then left-clicking on the creature’s icon. This allows you to heal damaged creatures without having
to hunt for them in the melee.

11.0 THE DUNGEON VIEW

The Dungeon View is a view of your Dungeon from above that allows you to
observe everything that’s going on inside. From here you can see all of your rooms
in action and each of your creatures walking around performing the evil tasks
you’ve set them.

You can scroll around the Dungeon by using the cursor keys or by pushing the mouse to the edges of the
screen. Doing both together scrolls you around at twice the normal rate. Holding down the Shift key and
pressing the cursor keys also scrolls at twice the normal rate.

To rotate the Dungeon, hold down the right Ctrl key and press down the left or right cursor keys.
To zoom in or out, hold down the right Ctrl key and press down the up and down cursor keys.
For more information on the keys and how to define them, refer to section 33.0 of this manual.

11.1 YOUR MOUSE POINTER

Your mouse pointer is dynamic and changes depending on what it is positioned over. It also acts as
a light in your Dungeon and cast rays in even the darkest areas.

11.1.1 NORMAL (AN ARROW)

If the mouse is positioned over a tile that cannot be altered, such as an
ordinary corridor tile, your mouse pointer is a standard arrow.

11.1.2 DIGGING (A PICKAXE)

more information.

If your mouse is over a part of the map that hasn’t been dug out, the pointer
changes to a pickaxe. This means that you are able to tag that tile for
digging by your Imps.

See the Building Your Dungeon section (section 12.0) later in the manual for

11.1.3 A CREATURE (A HAND)

If your mouse is over a creature, the pointer changes to become the powerful
Hand of Evil.

While your mouse is over the creature, a symbol appears shaped like a red,

then all the spikes are bright red. The lower its health, the fewer the number of spikes.

Clicking the left mouse button picks up that creature (right-click to drop them again).
If you click the right mouse button, you can slap the creature. This makes the creature faster

and more obedient but also damages its health.

11.2 THE DUNGEON HEART

The Dungeon Heart is the life force of your Dungeon. You must take good
care of it because, if it’s destroyed, you lose the level.

The size of the Heart depends on its strength, which is on maximum at the

11.3 YOUR IMPS

24

You start every level with a small number of Imps. These creatures are unique in
their abilities and are very valuable as they perform all the digging and
maintenance of your Dungeon. They are fast but very weak and, although they can
attack heroes or enemy creatures, they are easily killed. It’s best to keep them away

from combat.
You will get more information on these creatures as you read on.

12.0 BUILDING YOUR DUNGEON

When you begin a Dungeon, you need three rooms to make sure your creatures are happy: a Treasure
Room for gold, a Lair for your creatures to rest and a Hatchery where your creatures can eat.

12.1 DIGGING

To dig out some new caverns, choose a location for the new room and
highlight it with your mouse pointer. When positioned over a tile of
unmined earth your mouse pointer changes to a pickaxe. Click on the tile

earth tiles to mark more for digging. Hold down the left mouse button and scroll around the
dungeon with the mouse to paint large areas with the yellow tagging stripes.

distinguish their tiles from your own.

of earth and it becomes marked by some yellow stripes. Click on more

Your Imps now go to the selected piece of earth (as long as they can reach
it) and start to dig at the wall with their picks. The wall soon collapses
leaving a bare patch of ground. However, you aren’t able to build on this
land yet, as it’s not owned by you.

Once your Imps have finished digging out new land, they lay down some
tiles. Once this has been done it means that you’ve claimed the land and
can build on it. The area has a central tile in your own colour (red)
indicating that it’s yours. Any enemy Keepers have colours of their own to

When all the bare earth has been claimed, the Imps start to reinforce the
walls. This takes quite a bit of time but is very useful because, once
completed, heroes and enemy Keepers are unable to tunnel into your
Dungeon without a Destroy Walls spell. Likewise, if an enemy Keeper has

fortified his walls you are unable to break into his Dungeon without the Destroy Walls spell.
To deselect a square you have tagged for digging, just left-click on the square and the yellow stripes

disappear.

25

12.2 GOLD

Some unmined areas of the map sparkle, indicating that they contain veins
of gold. Dig these out (by tagging them in the same way as normal earth)
and your Imps haul the gold to a Treasure Room. If there is no Treasure

the wealth of your dungeon, so make certain that you have enough Treasure Room tiles to hold all
the gold. If not, you can always enlarge your Treasure Room, or build a new one.

Once gold has been dug out, it appears as lumps of treasure on the ground which can be picked up,
as long as they are on a tile owned by you. They can then be placed directly in the Treasure Room
or given to a creature by left-clicking. This kind of bonus is a great motivator and makes the
creature much happier.

Room available, the gold is simply left on the ground and isn’t included in

12.3 GEMS

Mining gems adds to your overall wealth, but they act differently to normal
gold blocks. Gems cannot be destroyed and therefore give you an infinite
supply of gold for your Dungeon. The downside is that it takes much

Imps simply pile up the gold around the Gem block until they get fed up of digging it. To dig a Gem
block, select it as you selected an area of gold; to stop mining, deselect it in the same way.

13.0 BUILDING BASIC ROOMS

13.1 BUILDING A TREASURE ROOM

Your first room should be a Treasure Room as you need to store gold to pay wages to the creatures
in your Dungeon.

To build a Treasure Room, go into the Rooms panel on the Control Panel
and select the bag of gold icon in the top corner; your pointer changes into
a bag of gold. Move the cursor over an empty tile and click the left mouse

number appears, telling you how much that room tile cost. Build a square room of three by three
tiles to start with.

When new creatures enter your Dungeon, they always look for a Lair. Without one, your creatures
aren’t able to rest and make a home. They soon become unhappy and leave.

button to place it down. The Dungeon shakes as it is placed down and a

Once the room has been built, a flag lets you know the room type. It also
has three bars, which are explained further in the Rooms section (section

16.1) later in the manual.

Now when you dig out gold, the Imps take it to the Treasure Room and
deposit it on the tiles.

To build a Lair, go to the Rooms panel on the Control Panel and click on
the sleeping creature icon. Place the room down in the same way as the
Treasure Room. You may need to make the Lair bigger than the Treasure
Room as each creature in your Dungeon claims one room tile as their own

so, as soon as you open your Dungeon, it begins to fill up.

27

13.3 BUILDING A HATCHERY

Creatures need wages, sleep and food to keep them happy. Food is grown in the form of chickens in
your Hatchery.

To build a Hatchery, go to the Rooms panel on the Control Panel and
select the third icon along with an egg on it. Find a spare space and place
the room down in the same way as the Lair. This room can be small to

you have, the larger the Hatchery needs to be.

If you slap a chicken, it explodes in a puff of feathers. This, though good fun, is wasteful; do it
sparingly to conserve your resources.

begin with but its production rate depends on its size so the more creatures

Once a tile has been laid down, eggs start to rise through the earth. After a
while they hatch into chickens, who wander around the room and peck at the
floor. When a creature wants to eat, it simply goes to the Hatchery, picks out a
chicken and eats it.

14.0 CONTINUING YOUR DUNGEON

Now that you’ve built the basic rooms, you need to find a Portal on the map
and tunnel towards it. Without one, no creatures can enter your Dungeon. The
more Portals you have, the more creatures you attract so make sure that you get
to them before any enemy Keepers.

Remember to dig for gold so that your creatures don’t get disillusioned and fight amongst themselves.

28

14.1 WATER

As you dig around, you may uncover some water. Your creatures aren’t
harmed by this and, in fact, some may live in it. Water can be a very useful
tactical asset but you are not able to build on it.

You can, however, use the Bridge room tile (see Section 17.6) to make new
land on the water.

14.2 LAVA

Lava is uncovered in the same way as water but, as it’s molten rock, it’s far
more deadly. Your creatures avoid it as they are hurt if they come into
contact with its glowing surface. However, a few creatures, like the
Dragon, cannot be harmed by lava.

The only way to get over lava is to do a Cave-In (see section 18.13) or build a Bridge (see section

17.6) over it. Lava can have great tactical importance in your battle against the just and good.

15.0 HIDDEN ROOMS AND SECRETS

As you dig around, look out for hidden rooms and secrets. These include new spells, a secret surprise, a
new room or a Hero Gate. Hidden items are always worth investigating.

15.1 SECRET SURPRISE

These appear as boxes with question marks and spikes on. If you move your mouse
over the icon, the pointer changes into the Hand of Evil. When you left-click on the
secret it becomes active. Examples of Secret Surprises include: all research
completed, resurrect a creature or even an entire secret level.

15.2 NEW ROOMS

If you come across a hidden room, a Pop-up Icon appears telling you what
you have discovered. You then see the room on the Control Panel for you to
use later. Some rooms may come with new creatures unique to that room.

15.3 HERO GATES

These Gates appear as wavy, transparent teleports and act as entrances for
heroes. They are a weak spot in your Dungeon so guard them carefully.

29

16.0 ROOMS

16.1 ROOM FLAGS

When a new room is built a flag appears on the first tile that was laid down. The flag
has a picture icon on it denoting the room type. Next to the icon are three bars:
Health (top red bar), Capacity (middle green bar) and Efficiency (bottom white bar).

16.1.1 HEALTH

If an enemy Imp enters your Dungeon and begins to try and take over one of your rooms, the
health of that room starts to fall. Once the room has been drained of all health, the room
becomes the property of the enemy Keeper.

16.1.2 CAPACITY

This indicates how full the room is. If the bar is high then it is nearly full and you should
consider expanding.

16.1.3 EFFICIENCY

You can build a room any size and shape you want, but when doing so you need to take into
account room efficiency. Efficiency directly affects the rate at which a room works. A more
efficient Hatchery, for example, produces more chickens, a more efficient Library researches
faster, etc.

A totally inefficient room consists of a single tile on its own. It is, in fact, negatively efficient. If
it has another room tile of the same type placed next to it, its efficiency automatically increases.
The more room tiles of the same type surround it, the more efficient it becomes. The most
efficient room tile is one that is completely surrounded by room tiles of the same type.

In general, large, square, enclosed rooms are the most efficient. Sometimes it’s impossible to
build rooms in the shape you want - the Efficiency rating helps you make the best of the area
you’ve got.

Efficiency also affects the fire trail which travels around the perimeter of the room. The higher
the flame, the more efficient the room.

30

17.0 INDIVIDUAL ROOMS

Each room in Dungeon Keeper is individual and performs its own useful function within your Dungeon.
Listed are the creatures which are attracted when you build a room of a particular type, plus the size of
the room required to attract a specific species of creature.

17.1 TREASURE ROOM

Creature attracted: Dragon (also needs Lair) and Demonspawn
(also needs Training Room).

The minimum size it has to be to attract that creature: 25 tiles.
Zoom To key: T

The Treasure Room is where all your gold is stored. Gold can be both mined and collected from the
bodies of enemies. To pick up treasure that has been deposited in your Treasure Rooms, move the
mouse over a pile and click the left mouse button. You can then drop it into any other Treasure
Room, allowing you to concentrate your treasure in a well-defended place. You can also pick up
gold from anywhere in your dungeon and deposit it into your Treasure Rooms directly.

If an enemy Keeper spies your Treasure Room, he may dig for it. Intruding heroes often make their
way directly for the Treasure Room, too.

17.2 LAIR

Creatures attracted: Beetle, Vampire (also needs Graveyard),
Spider (also needs Hatchery), Tentacle (also needs Temple),
Dragon (also needs Treasure Room), Bile Demon (also needs

Hatchery).
The minimum size it has to be to attract each creature:
Beetle: 1 tile.
Vampire: 9 tiles.
Spider: 9 tiles.
Tentacle: 9 tiles.
Dragon: 15 tiles.
Bile Demon: 25 tiles.
Zoom To key: Shift L
The Lair is where your creatures sleep and rest.
When a creature enters a level, it first secures its place in a Lair. Each creature has its own

individual Lair so that you can easily tell who has made their home there. Most creatures take up
one Lair tile to themselves but a few take up more, so make sure you have sufficient space.

31

Some creatures dislike each other, like the Spider and the Fly, and you should therefore avoid
making a Lair for them in the same room. If they do have to share a Lair, these creatures fight one
another to the death.

You can pick up creatures or possess them even if they are sleeping, but this generally annoys them
as it disturbs their rest.

If you drop a creature in a Lair, it’s forced to set up its home there. This way, you can avoid any
fights and control where your creatures go. Carefully placed Lairs around your Dungeon can act as
a good defence against intruders as there are always some creatures sleeping there.

17.3 HATCHERY

Creature attracted: Spider (also needs Lair) and Bile Demon
(also needs Lair).

The minimum size it has to be to attract each creature:

Spider: 9 tiles.
Bile Demon: 25 tiles.

Zoom To key: Shift H
Hatcheries generate chickens which all creatures (apart from Imps) eat to sustain themselves.
Chickens are mindless creatures that wander around pecking at the floor for food and explode in a

puff of feather if slapped. When creatures are hungry, they enter the Hatchery and eat a chicken or
two to fill themselves up. In fact, if you drop any creature in a Hatchery, it eats a chicken whether it
is hungry or not. Creatures eat a lot, so make sure that your Hatchery is large enough to sustain
your entire menagerie.

You can Possess chickens (see the Possess spell in the Spells section - sections 18.1 and 27.0 - later
in the manual) but you have no control over them. You can also pick up chickens and place them
anywhere in your Dungeon. Unfortunately, the chickens die if they are not put back into the
Hatchery after a while. Place the chicken in a Prison (see section 17.10 for more information on the
Prison) and any creatures currently imprisoned fight for possession of this tasty morsel. To the
victor the spoils.

32

17.4 LIBRARY

Creature attracted: Warlock.
The minimum size it has to be to attract that creature: 9 tiles.
Zoom To key: L
The Library is the research centre of your Dungeon. From here,

you can research new spells and rooms to use against an enemy.
You can tell what you need to research on a level if you look at the Research and Workshop Panels

on the Control Panel (see sections 7.0 and 8.0 for more information on the Research Panel and the
Workshop Panel respectively). On some squares you may see a question mark. This is where spells
and objects are placed when research has been completed.

A creature placed in a Library starts to research immediately and occupies a single floor tile. The
more creatures in the Library, the faster the research is completed. The room efficiency also directly
alters the research speed (see the Room Flags section - section 16.1).

When a piece of research is completed, the creatures dance around before continuing on with their
work. If a spell has been researched, it appears in your Library as a floating spell book and remains
there permanently. The spell takes up one tile in the Library, so make sure you have more space to
research in. As the spell is permanently held in the Library, it is vulnerable to attack meaning that
it’s possible for an enemy to take over your Library and steal your spells.

Creatures whose primary job is researching in the Library suffer from job stress. As a result, if any
creature enters the Library who isn’t a researcher, the researching creature attacks it. This has a
detrimental effect on your research, so make sure you build the Library away from the main walking
routes.

17.5 TRAINING ROOM

Creature attracted: Orc (also needs Barracks). The Training

Room also increases the chances of enticing a Demon Spawn

(also needs Treasure Room).

The minimum size it has to be to attract the Orc: 9 tiles.
The minimum size it has to be to attract a Demon Spawn: 1 tile.
Zoom To key: Shift T
The Training Room is the place where creatures increase their experience. When a creature gains

experience, they become larger and may receive additional powers that can be devastating in battle.
When a creature either goes to, or is dropped into, the Training Room, it takes up one floor tile to

train on. The creatures then go around hitting pillars or the spinning training posts. Some creatures
can also fight with other creatures as this helps them to train at a greater speed. While creatures are
training, they require a lot of gold so make sure you have enough.

Creatures start off in your Dungeon at skill level 1, which is the weakest of all. The maximum they
can reach is level 10, by which point they have become very large and fast. You’ll know when a
creature has gone up an experience level; it performs a little dance before resuming its training.

Creatures that are naturally loyal, such as the Hellhound, often group with other members of their
species that they know they can learn from. Some creatures attain extra skills when training, for
example Warlocks gain spells as their experience increases, while level 10 Demon Spawn become
level 2 Dragons when fully trained.

17.6 BRIDGE

Creature attracted: None

Zoom To key: Shift B

The bridge is a safe way of crossing water and lava. Just place

them where you want them and click the left mouse button.

Creatures subsequently traverse your bridges on their way to

other parts of the map.

33

17.7 GUARD POST

Creature attracted: None
Zoom To key: Shift G
If you place a creature in a Guard Post, the creature remains

heroes and enemy creatures and, should any appear, it attacks them.
You can drop a creature in the Guard Post. A creature with a natural tendency to guard, such as the

Orc, automatically goes to an empty Guard Post and watches for invaders.
Note: Each creature takes up one room tile.
If a rolling boulder from a Boulder Trap (see section 20.1) hits a Guard Post square, the Guard Post

square is destroyed and the floor returns to bare earth.

17.8 WORKSHOP

Creature attracted: Troll.
The minimum size it has to be to attract that creature: 1 tile.
Zoom To key: W

for you to place around your Dungeon.
Note: A trap cannot be manufactured if it is not available on the Workshop Panel (see section 8.0).
As a creature is manufacturing an object, it hammers on the anvils and hits the centre machine.

Each creature in the room takes up one tile. When a new object is manufactured, the creatures cheer
and dance and a Pop-up Icon appears telling you what has been made. This new object appears in
the form of a crate which, again, takes up one tile in the room.

Unlike spells, each object can be built many times and is always stored in the Workshop. You may
find yourself running out of space if you’re not careful. Each object also requires the room to be of a
certain size before it can be manufactured. See the information on each individual object in the
Traps and Doors section (section 19.0) later in the manual for more information.

When you lay a trap in your Dungeon, it becomes transparent which indicates that it hasn’t been
armed. An Imp then goes to the Workshop and drags the trap to the specified location. This takes
time, so make sure that your Workshop is accessible to all areas of your Dungeon. Also, if an enemy
Keeper invades your Dungeon and takes over your Workshop, he attains all your traps and doors.
Enemy traps are invisible until set off for the first time.

Remember: the efficiency of the Workshop directly affects how fast each object is manufactured.

The Workshop is where all the traps and doors are manufactured

17.9 BARRACKS

Creature attracted: Orc (also needs Training Room).

The minimum size it has to be to attract that creature: 1 tile.

Zoom To key: B

one to guide them around your dungeon. To do this, you have to pick up all the creatures you want
in your group and drop them onto a Barracks room. The creatures stay in the room until you
Possess one of them, after which you act as the group’s leader and they follow you wherever you go.

Some creatures do not group together. Spiders and Flies, for example, definitely don’t get on in a
group.

Once you leave the creature, by pressing the right mouse button, the group breaks up and each
creature returns to its normal job.

For information on the Possess Spell, see section 18.1. For instructions regarding the Possess
Creature mode and controlling the creature directly, see section 27.0.

Barracks enable you to group creatures and then take control of

17.10 PRISON

This room attracts no creatures but dead creatures have a

chance of being resurrected here and joining your menagerie as

skeletons.

Zoom To key: Shift P
The Prison is where you put all your troublesome creatures and captured enemy heroes and

creatures. You can dump your own creatures into chokey just by picking them up. Heroes and enemy
creatures have to be captured before they can be taken to the Prison. To do this, go into the
Information Panel on the Control Panel and click on the imprison button (see section 5.2). This tells
your creatures to capture the invaders instead of killing them.

When creatures are in the Prison, they take up one tile each. Make certain that the Prison isn’t too
small because, if it becomes overcrowded it could burst, causing a jailbreak. Jailbreaks also occur if
a tile owned by one player is positioned next to a prison owned by another player.

Creatures are free from the influences of an enemy Scavenger Room while in Prison, but it also
means that they cannot get to food. Remember that creatures starve to death in the prison if you
don’t feed them, although if a humanoid creature dies, they become a Skeleton for your army. To
feed creatures, go to the Hatchery and pick up a chicken as you would normally. Now go to the
prison and drop it in. The creatures fight over the chicken whether they are hungry or not. After all,
they don’t know where their next meal is coming from.

being tortured slowly loses its health until it eventually dies or you let it go.

You can drop your own creatures straight in and start the torture. The creature is then at the mercy
of the fiendish torture device the room contains. (Each creature put into the room occupies a single
floor tile.) While you are torturing one of your own creatures, its wages drop to half the normal
value. Also, all the creatures of its type begin to work twenty-five per cent faster. This is because
they’re scared. If you drop another creature of the same type in the room, it won’t make any further
difference to the increase in work rate.

To place heroes and enemy creatures in the Torture Chamber, you first have to capture them and
place them in a Prison. Once they are in the cell you can pick them up as if they were your own
creature and do what you want with them. While they are being tortured, two things can happen.
First, they have a small chance of revealing the layout of the enemy Keeper’s Dungeon. Secondly,
they have a slightly greater chance of being converted to your side.

Remember, though, that while a creature is suffering torture, it is slowly dying. It has a tolerance
level to torture and will resist until this level is reached. The efficiency of the room affects how long
it takes to break down a creature’s resistance, so design your room carefully. Some creatures,
notably the Dark Mistress, receive an increase in happiness from watching the torture take place,
while some particularly sick creatures actually enjoy the experience of being tortured.

Note: If a creature dies under torture, it turns into a Ghost.

The Torture Chamber is where you can torment both your own

17.12 TEMPLE

This room doesn’t attract any creatures directly but improves the
chances of a Tentacle entering your Dungeon (also needs Lair).

Zoom To key: right Ctrl T
The Temple is where creatures go if they are unhappy. Being in

the Temple raises their contentment level. You can also sacrifice creatures to please the gods here.
When a creature goes to the Temple, it dances around the Temple Font and occasionally stops for

prayer. Each creature in the Temple takes up one tile. You can drop creatures onto the Temple to
make them happier but the Temple also does other things to certain creatures. If a creature is
diseased or has been changed into a chicken, dropping it onto the Temple cures it. The room also
stops creatures being scavenged by enemy Keepers for a little while.

You can sacrifice creatures by dropping them directly into the Temple Font. Certain creatures or
groups of creatures give you great benefits as their sacrifice pleases the gods. If you make a bad
sacrifice, however, the gods punish you. Sacrifice carefully.

game as it has no need for creatures to operate it. It is used to store the decomposing bodies of
creatures that have fallen in your Dungeon. If a creature walks past a dead body anywhere else, it
gets a little bit unhappy. The Graveyard is a good way of clearing up corpses.

Your Imps drag the dead creatures to the Graveyard provided there is enough space. Each dead
body takes up one tile in the room until it decomposes. Once it has decomposed, the space is free.
And once a certain number of bodies have decomposed, a Vampire is created for you to command.

Efficiency won’t affect this room in any way, so you can place a Graveyard anywhere.

Drop a creature into the Scavenger Room and it dances around the centre of the room casting its

evil influence around the map. It targets the lowest level creatures of its type first before looking
further afield for other creatures. The scavenged creatures increases the chance of another creature
of the same type arriving from a Portal. Each creature in the room takes up one tile, but more
creatures in the room, especially of the same type, greatly increase the chances of your side
scavenging a new creature.

When a creature switches sides and joins the ranks of your minions, it instantly becomes happy as it
has a new master. Remember that creatures in Prison and those that have recently visited the Temple
cannot be scavenged.

The Scavenger Room allows you to head-hunt enemy creatures

17.15 SELL ROOM

To sell a room, either to gain gold or to simply free up space, left-click on the Sell

18.0 SPELLS

A number of spells are available for you to use, to help you out of any tight corners or scrapes. You can
either find them on the maps in secret rooms, or you may research them. Either way, once they are on the
Spells Panel section of the Control Panel, they are available for use.

or fight, then the Speed Creature spell can be used to double the

rate at which they perform a task.

To cancel the spell, left-click twice on the Call To Arms spell icon on the Control Panel to pick up
the spell again. Then click the right mouse button.

18.7 CONCEAL CREATURE

Sometimes, you may want to resort to stealth to explore around a
Dungeon. Casting this spell on a creature makes it invisible to
heroes and enemy creatures although the penalties are that it be
visible when fighting.

To cast the spell, left-click on the spell’s icon and then click on the creature you want to conceal.
Ghosts can see invisible creatures. Be warned.

18.8 HOLD AUDIENCE

40

Another powerful spell, Hold Audience summons all your
creatures to the Dungeon Heart. They then circle it dancing until
the spell stops after which they continue their normal jobs.

To cast the spell, left-click on the icon and then confirm that you

wish to cast the spell. All your creatures now converge on the Dungeon Heart. This spell is useful if
you need to quickly defend the Dungeon Heart from attack.

18.9 HEAL

If you do not have the time to send your creatures to the Temple
for healing, you can cast the Heal spell on them to take them
back up to full health.

18.12 TURN TO CHICKEN

If you need to combat a sudden invasion and you’re hopelessly

outnumbered, you can cast this spell on an enemy creature and

turn it into a chicken for a limited time. Although they aren’t

able to fight back, they retain their original strength so may take

a short while to kill.
To cast the spell, left-click on the spell’s icon and then left-click on a hero or enemy creature. By

holding down the left mouse button when casting the spell, you can increase the strength of the
spell, although it costs you more gold. The spell then turns the targeted creature into a chicken.

other chickens live. Make sure it does not get accidentally eaten. The spell can be countered by
picking up the creature and putting it in the Temple to be cured.

41

18.13 CAVE-IN

Cave-In allows you partially collapse the roof of a Dungeon,
whether it is your own or an enemy’s.

To cast the spell, left-click on its icon and then move the mouse

18.14 DISEASE

The disease spell spreads a plague among the enemy creatures
when cast. If you infect one creature they have a chance of
spreading the disease each time they encounter another creature.
While the carrier has the disease it is also slowly dying. Good.

To cast the spell, left-click on the appropriate icon and then select the creature you want to infect.
Now either click the left mouse button or hold down the left mouse button to increase the strength of
the spell. The stronger the spell the longer it lasts but the more it costs you.

If this spell is cast by an enemy on one of your own creatures, you can cure them by placing them in
the Temple.

This is a very powerful spell that sparks a brutal battle around
your Dungeon Heart.

When you cast the spell, you’re asked to confirm whether you

18.16 DESTROY WALLS

You cannot break through an enemy Keeper’s fortified Dungeon
walls just by digging. You can dig through normal earth but, if it
is fortified, you need to cast the Destroy Walls spell. The spell
does not destroy walls, just gets rid of the fortifying stone blocks

and returns them to mineable earth.

To cast the spell, left-click on the spell’s icon and then select the square of fortified wall you want to
destroy. The wall becomes plain earth and you can then tunnel through before you rival’s own Imps
have time to fortify it again.

19.0 TRAPS AND DOORS

Traps and Doors are available for you to use as deterrents against invaders entering your Dungeon.

They can only be placed on tiles you have already claimed. Both have to be
individually manufactured in the Workshop (see section 17.8) and your supply
is limited to what you have produced.

20.0 TRAPS

Traps have to be transported to your selected sites by Imps. All of your own creatures remain unaffected
by the traps you place. The moment one is triggered by a hero or enemy creature, though, they suffer the
consequences. Equally, enemy traps are invisible to you until it’s too late.

For more information on traps and how to use them, refer to the Traps section of the Workshop panel
(section 8.1).

20.1 BOULDER TRAP

The Boulder Trap allows to you lay down a huge round rock

which rolls over heroes and enemy creatures when they come

within range.

and within its line of sight. The boulder then starts rolling towards them. When the boulder reaches
a wall, it bounces off in a random direction so its path cannot be predicted. After some time, the
boulder breaks up and is destroyed.

You can also set off the trap at any time by slapping it and by careful aiming you can change the
boulder’s direction by slapping it as it’s in motion.

Should the Boulder roll onto lava it is destroyed, although it continues to roll on water but becomes
trapped. Should the boulder hit a Guard Post square (see section 17.7), that Guard Post square is
destroyed and replaced with bare earth. If a boulder rolls onto an enemy Lava Trap the trap
activates, causing the boulder to fall onto the lava. Remember, although your own creatures do not
set off the trap, they can still be squashed if caught in it’s path.

Note: The Boulder Trap requires your Workshop to made up of at least seventeen squares before
production begins.

The trap is triggered when a hero or enemy creature is close to it

43

20.2 ALARM TRAP

The Alarm Trap starts a strong Call To Arms if triggered. All of
your creatures in the area are summoned to a specific point.

When a hero or enemy creature sets off the trap the Call To Arms

health of anything near it.

The gas trap can be used five times before it needs replacing.

poisoned gas can hurt your own creatures if they inhale it.

To manufacture the Poison Gas Trap, your Workshop must be made up of at least ten squares.

You won’t have to put down another trap; your Imps

20.4 LIGHTNING TRAP

The Lightning Trap lets loose a bolt of lightning when tripped.
The trap has a limit of twelve shots before it needs to be replaced

by your Imps. They do this automatically. Shots from the
Lightning Trap do not harm your creatures.

The Lightning Trap requires your Workshop to made up of at least thirteen squares before one can
be manufactured
.

44

20.5 WORD OF POWER TRAP

The Word of Power trap explodes with a Word of Power spell
when a hero or enemy creature passes over it. This spell is very
destructive and expands from the trap in all directions.

The trap does not harm your creatures but only has three shots

and isn’t replaced by your Imps.
To manufacture the Word of Power Trap, your Workshop must be made up of at least twenty-one

squares.

20.6 LAVA TRAP

The Lava Trap turns the tile on which it is set to lava when a

hero or enemy creature steps on it. This trap is deadly and works

well in conjunction with other traps. The trap can only be laid

once and is capable of damaging your creatures if they are on it

when it is triggered.
The Lava Trap requires your Workshop to be made up of at least seventeen squares before

production can begin.

21.0 DOORS

Doors can only be placed in the one square gap between two reinforced walls.
This means that any corridors in which they’re placed have to be one square
wide. They open and allow the safe passage for your creatures but do not open

which stops any creatures, yours or otherwise, from passing through them. Only Ghosts can travel
through doors without opening them.

For more information on doors and how to use them, refer to the Doors section of the Workshop panel
(section 8.2).

21.1 WOODEN DOOR

ordinary wood. It can be broken down easily and destroyed if hit

by a boulder from a Boulder Trap.

The Wooden Door requires your Workshop to made up of at least

21.2 BRACED DOOR

The Braced Door is of average strength and lasts a little longer

than the wooden door.

To manufacture the Braced Door, your Workshop must be made

up of at least thirteen squares.

21.3 IRON DOOR

The Iron Door is the strongest door and takes a lot of time to
break through. Bear in mind, though, that it also takes a lot of
time to manufacture.

This is a special door that is almost impregnable to Hand to
Hand attack and can only be broken down by magical spells
such as fireballs or lightning.

up of at least twenty-one squares.

To manufacture the Magic Door, your Workshop must be made

21.5 SELLING A TRAP OR A DOOR

This allows you to sell a trap or door from within your Dungeon. Although traps
and doors do not cost you anything to manufacture you did pay creatures to produce
them so, by selling them, you can regain some of that lost revenue.

Your creatures are the workhorses of your Dungeon and failure to control them
or utilise their strengths is going to get you nowhere fast.

Each type of creature is distinctively different and has its own likes and dislikes.

is available. For example, Trolls always manufacture items if a Workshop is available. Some creatures
dislike certain jobs and even other creatures, such as the Spider and the Fly.

46

Most have primary jobs which they perform automatically if the relevant room

22.1 GETTING CREATURES

Creatures can enter your service in several ways.

The most significant of these is through Portals. Portals are dotted around the
map at the start of a level but are all unclaimed. You have to dig to the Portal
and claim it as your own before creatures can enter the dungeon. The more
Portals you have, the more creatures you get.

Another way is to scavenge them from enemy Keepers by putting creatures in a Scavenger Room
(see section 17.14). These creatures attract and influence other creatures of the same type on the
map and turn them to your side.

You can also imprison enemy creatures and torture them. If you are good at the torture they transfer
their allegiance to you.

Sacrificing in the Temple can also play a big part in getting creatures. You’ll have to experiment to
discover what benefits you can achieve.

Sometimes, you may find a new room hidden on the map in which some creatures can be found.
Once you have discovered the room, these creatures are yours to command.

22.2 LOOKING AFTER YOUR CREATURES

Your creatures all work for gold and are only loyal to those who can please, feed and pay them. If
you force them to do work they dislike, or leave dead bodies in the corridors that they have to walk
past, they soon get fed up and leave.

22.2.1 PICKING UP AND VIEWING CREATURES

You can pick up your creatures and place them wherever you want in the
Dungeon. To do this, find the creature you wish to relocate in the Dungeon
View and move your mouse pointer over it; the pointer changes into a hand.
Click the left mouse button and the hand picks up the highlighted creature.

To drop the creature, click the right mouse button. You can only drop creatures on tiles that you
have claimed. If you drop a creature in a room, it begins using that room unless it hates the job,
in which case it gets unhappy.

You can pick up multiple creatures, to a maximum of eight, by left-clicking on each creature
(making sure that the mouse pointer is over them). You can see how many creatures and what
type they are from the creature symbols on your pointer.

Pressing Backspace drops creatures in the reverse order in which they were picked up. They are
then returned to their original locations.

You can also drop creatures into your dungeon through the Dynamic Map. To do this,
pick up the creatures and then right-click on your land on the map and they are
dropped there.

47

Another way to pick up creatures is to use the Creature Panel on the Control Panel (see
section 9.0). On this panel there are three columns displaying the different activities a
creature might be engaged in: Idle (a question mark), Working (a brick) and Fighting (a
sword). Under these icons are pictures representing each creature and then, next to
these, the number of those creatures performing each task.

Left-click on any number on the table (not zero) to pick up one creature which is performing
that task. You can keep left-clicking on the numbers to pick up a maximum of eight. Right-

clicking on these numbers zooms and cycles you through all of those creatures.
Left-clicking on the creature symbols picks up a creature of that type regardless of its current

job. Right-click to zoom and cycle through all those creatures.
Right-click on the job icon to zoom and cycle through all those creatures. Left-clicking does

nothing.

22.2.2 SLAPPING CREATURES

While your mouse is over a creature and the pointer has changed to a hand, you can click the
right mouse button and slap that creature. This knocks the creature over and damages it slightly
but it makes it work faster out of fear.

If you slap a chicken, it explodes.

22.2.3 SACKING A CREATURE

If you want to get rid of a creature, you can eject it from your dungeon permanently. Pick up the
troublesome creature and then drop it into a Creature Portal to sack them.

22.2.4 CREATURE MOODS

When a creature is doing a job or walking somewhere, it may have a thought
bubble over its head. This tells you what mood it is in or where it is going. For
example, it may have a sleepy icon above its head which indicates it is going to
its Lair for some rest.

See the Creature Thought Bubbles section (section 32.0) later in the manual for more
information on individual bubbles.

48

22.3 QUERYING A CREATURE

If you want to follow a single creature around the Dungeon or view its individual information, you
can query the creature.

To do this, go into the Information Panel on the Control Panel. At the
bottom of the panel is a ‘?’ icon. Left-click on this and then left-click on
the creature you want information on. Alternatively, hold down Shift and
left-click on a creature, this will also make you enter the creature.

On the Control Panel, the Creature Information Panel appears and the Dungeon View scrolls to
follow the creature.

23.0 CREATURE INFORMATION PANEL

This panel is split into two parts. The Primary Information Panel contains the
creature’s vital information and its weapons. The Secondary Information Panel,
which can be accessed be clicking on the More Information Button at the bottom
of the panel, contains more detailed miscellaneous information such as that
creature’s wage and number of kills.

23.1 THE PRIMARY INFORMATION PANEL

In the top left of the panel is a picture of the creature type.

23.2 CREATURE ANGER BAR

Next to this is the Creature Anger Bar. The higher the bar, the angrier the
creature.

23.3 CREATURE EXPERIENCE

Below the Happiness Bar is that creature’s experience. The lowest is one and
the highest is ten. Behind the number is a bar indicating the creatures
progress towards attaining more experience.

49

23.4 CREATURE NAME AND HEALTH

Each creature has its own individual name. Behind the name is the creature
health bar. The higher the red bar, the better health the creature is in.

23.5 CREATURE WEAPONS

The next set of bars are the creature’s weapons. A creature can have up to ten
weapons in its arsenal and two available to use at any one time. The number
in the corner is important as this is the number key you have to press to use
that weapon while in possession of a creature.

See the Creature Spells section (section 25.0) for more information on individual spells.

If you click twice on the downward arrow icon at the bottom of the panel,
the Secondary Panel appears.

23.6 THE SECONDARY INFORMATION PANEL

The secondary panel contains ten sections of information.
On the left side, there are:

50

23.7 CREATURE KILLS

The total kills attained by that creature.

23.8 GOLD HELD

The total amount of gold held by that creature.

23.9 DEFENCE

This is the chance of the creature avoiding a blow. The higher the number,
the greater the chance of avoidance and thus the better the creature’s
defence.

23.10 AGE / TIME IN DUNGEON

The amount of time that creature has been living in your Dungeon.

23.11 LUCK

The percentage chance a creature has of doing a double attack and a
double defence per round of combat It indicates twice the chance of each.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that attacks or defences are guaranteed to
work.

23.12 STRENGTH

Strength is the amount of damage a creature does each time it hits an
enemy.

51

23.13 WAGE

The amount of gold the creature is paid each payday.

23.14 SKILL

Skill is a creature’s ability to perform any given task. The higher the Skill
level, the better the creature’s performance.

23.15 DEXTERITY

This rating indicates a creature’s ability to avoid being harmed by a trap
or an enemy’s weapon. The higher the number, the greater the chance of
weapon or trap avoidance.

23.16 BLOOD TYPE

You, as Dungeon Keeper, must know your creatures if you are to command
them effectively. Being aware of a creature’s blood type gives you greater
power of them. Apart from this, it does nothing.

52

The toggle button at the bottom of the panel then takes you back to the
Primary Information Panel.

23.17 EXITING FROM QUERY CREATURE MO D E

To exit from Query Creature mode, click the right mouse button.

24.0 CREATURE TYPES

There are seventeen types of creature in Dungeon Keeper.

24.1 IMP

The Imp is a special creature as it doesn’t need to be attracted to your Dungeon
and you can only get more through the Create Imp spell.

The Imps are the most valuable of the creatures, as they perform all the tunnelling

dragging heroes and enemy creatures to the Prison and fitting traps. Imps can be trained to level ten
and get bigger and gain spells such as Conceal Creature and Fly. They can only be replaced by the
Create Imp spell (see section 18.1).

24.2 BEETLE

24.3 BILE DEMON

Bile Demons are invulnerable to Poison Gas.
Attracted by: Lair (minimum size: 25 tiles) and Hatchery (minimum size: 25 tiles)

work in your Dungeon and also maintain it by dragging away dead bodies,

A very basic creature that gets stamped on in a fight. Beetles are very weak and
are regarded as fireball fodder by the stronger heroes.

Attracted by: Lair (minimum size: 1 tile)

A very big, red, greedy creature that eats you out of house and Dungeon if you are
not careful. Despite this, they are excellent fighters and as hard as nails. Also, their
primary job is manufacturing. If they don’t get enough food, they get angry and fall
asleep until food arrives.

24.4 DARK MISTRESS

The kinkiest of the creatures who enjoys pain and inflicting it on others. She has no
special job but goes to watch a torture if one is in progress. Slapping her makes
her happier and she rushes off to a battle as soon as one starts. An excellent
fighter, if quite worrying.

Attracted by: Torture Chamber (minimum size: 9 tiles)

53

24.5 DEMON SPAWN

Demon Spawn are scaly, squat creatures who are good fighters despite their size.
They enjoy training and will become level 2 Dragons once they have trained past
level 10.

size: 1 tile)

Attracted by: Training Room (minimum size: 1 tile) and Treasure Room (minimum

24.6 DRAGON

The best all-round creatures, Dragons can arrive two ways. They can either enter
your Dungeon through a Portal or be grown from Demon Spawn who have been
trained to level ten. These Demon Spawn then become level two Dragons. They are

creatures. They are natural researchers but will train if no research is available.
They are impervious to lava and gain experience if their Lair is placed next to lava
Attracted by: Treasure Room (minimum size: 25 tiles) and Lair (minimum size: 15 tiles)

excellent in combat and breathe a natural fire that toasts heroes and enemy

Powerful magical creatures who are excellent at research. Training makes them
more powerful and expands their range of spells. If there are Warlocks in a group
and their total experience is more than fifteen, they lead a rebellion against the rest

the Torture Chamber. For this reason, Warlocks work well either with other Warlocks or alone.

creature’s mind and control it directly. You have access to this spell from level 1.

The Possess Creature spell can be found in the lower right hand corner of the Spells
Panel on the Control Panel (see section 18.1).

To cast the spell on a creature, left-click on the spell icon and then left-click on the

you’re looking at the Dungeon through the creature’s eyes.

27.1 CONTROLLING THE CREATURE

Control the creature with the keyboard and the mouse. Although you can alter the keys in the Main
Menu (see the Keys section in the Reference Card for more information - section 33.0), this section
describes the default controls.

creature in the Dungeon View. You zoom in on the creature and the screen changes so

While in Possession of a creature, you can perform any task that it would do
normally. You can dig out tunnels and take over enemy rooms with an Imp. You
can also increase a creature’s experience by attacking the rotating training
posts in the Training Room.

27.1.1 CONTROLS

To move the creature forward, backward and to the side, use the cursor keys. Up moves the
creature forward, down moves it backwards. Left and right strafe it from side to side (sidestep).

You move forward in the direction the creature is facing. To move the creature’s head from side
to side and up and down, use the mouse. Moving the mouse from side to side moves the
creature’s head. Moving the mouse up makes the creature look down, while moving the mouse
down makes the creature look up. It works in a similar way to aeroplane controls.

Take a bit of time to get used to the controls by moving the creature about your Dungeon when
things are quiet. To fire the creature’s currently selected weapon, click the left mouse button.

27.1.2 EXITING CREATURE

To exit the creature, click the right mouse button.

63

information.

Beneath all this is the name of the creature.

Lastly the creature’s ten possible weapons are listed.

64

27.3 CHANGING WEAPONS

On each weapon picture is a number. This number refers to a key on your keyboard. To select the
first weapon, press the number one on your keyboard.

You can tell which weapon is selected because its icon is sunken instead of raised.

28.0 BATTLES, HEROES AND ENEMY
CREATURES

Battles occur when two or more creatures fight each other. Sometimes a battle
kicks off between your own creatures but mostly they occur between your
creatures and heroes or enemy creatures.

When a battle occurs, you’re told about it by an icon that appears at the side of the
Control Panel (see section 10.5). You can also zoom to the battle by pressing F

There are rows on the battle window and each one represents a single battle. To
the left of the ‘vs.’ symbol are your creatures represented by their pictures and
to the right of these are the heroes or enemy creatures represented by their

creature’s health.
T o zoom to any of your creatures, right-click on the creature’s picture. You can also zoom to the enemy

in the same way provided they are on your land.
To pick any of your creatures, left-click on their pictures.
You can cast spells directly onto the creatures and enemies by left-clicking on the spell icon and then

left-clicking on the creature’s icon. This allows you to heal damaged creatures without having to hunt
for them in the melee.

pictures. Above each picture is the creature’s experience level and below is the

28.1 CREATURES IN BATTLE

When creatures are in battle, they hit the opponents or fire magical weapons in their direction.

If a creature is hit, it loses some health and a symbol appears shaped like a red
eight-pointed star. The number in the centre of this star is the creature’s experience.
The spikes on the star represent the creature’s health. If the creature is at full health,
all the spikes are bright red.

65

As soon as the creature is hurt, the top spike disappears and then, as it continues to
take damage, the spikes start to disappear clockwise around the symbol. When the
spikes have completely disappeared, the creature is dead.

coloured red. The heroes’ symbols are white and the enemy Keeper’s creature symbols are in their
own colours.

Creatures gain a lot of experience in battles and learn faster than they would normally in a Training
Room. Often, battles are an excellent way of training creatures fast. Try using captured heroes.

If a battle is not going well, you could try Possessing a creature and fight that way. Often, you’re
able to swing the battle if you are good enough. Grouping creatures is also a useful way of
guaranteeing lots of good creatures fighting together in a battle.

Note: Creatures do not stay in battle if they are tired.

To tell your creatures from the enemy in battle, your creatures’ symbols are

29.0 HEROES

You have many enemies in the lands of Dungeon Keeper, each wanting your gold and your untimely
demise. When your Dungeon is large enough to be famous, heroes start to arrive in the land and tunnel
through the earth towards your Dungeon.

Heroes are little more than hired mercenaries who are either working for themselves or for the Lord of
the Land, often in large groups. Sometimes they may have their own Dungeons which you have to
destroy.

They try and do many things to your Dungeon, including plundering your gold, destroying rooms and
attacking the Dungeon Heart. As each hero is an individual, you have to watch them all carefully in case
one should part company and invade different areas of your Dungeon.

On the plus side, every hero carries a sum of gold which they drop when they are defeated.

29.1 TUNNELLER

66

The Tunneller is a very poor fighter but speedy at digging through earth towards
your Dungeon. Heroes use Tunnellers to get them into your realm and then it’s
every man, dwarf and fairy for his (or her) self.

29.2 THIEF

An average if sneaky fighter who likes to hunt out and steal gold. That’s why he’s
called the Thief. Naturally enough.

29.3 ARCHER

Although this hero is bad at hand to hand combat, he is excellent at a long range
and very hard to get close to.

29.4 DWARF

A good hand-to-hand fighter who makes a point of stealing any gold he finds lying
about.

29.5 BARBARIAN

The Barbarian is a very tough and strong character who battles to the death.

29.6 WIZARD

An excellent magical fighter with a huge range of spells. Wizards are very vain and
hate other Wizards. They are to be feared when stalking your Dungeon’s floor.

67

29.7 WITCH

A Good Witch who is a competent magical fighter but, sadly for her, has a near
phobic aversion to Vampires. Can’t say that I blame her, but it certainly doesn’t
help when the fists are flying.

29.8 GIANT

The Giant is slow and lumbering but a large, tough fighter.

29.9 SAMURAI

A master swordsman, the Samurai is fearless and swift in battle. The Samurai’s
code of fighting, the Bushido, is strict and the sense of honour he has can hamper
his performance when faced by hordes of evil, nihilistic creatures.

29.10 MONK

The monk is a good fighter who can heal himself and heroes around him when they
take hits in battle.

68

29.11 FAIRY

A weak hero who is bad at combat but excellent at spells.

29.12 LORD OF THE LAND

A traditional knight, excellent at hand-to-hand combat. He is the sworn enemy of
the Horned Reaper and they both immediately fight to the death if they encounter
one another in the dungeon’s subterranean passageways.

29.13 AVATAR

The Greatest and Final Overlord of the Land who has to be killed to complete Dungeon Keeper.

30.0 WIN OR LOSE

Once you have defeated the Lord of the Land or completed the last objective in a particular realm, you
are informed by an on-screen message. Although you’re able to keep on playing if you wish, you can
finish and jump to the new level at any time by pressing Spacebar on your keyboard.

If you have lost the level, you are told as much by a message in the Objective Window. Left-clicking on
the Possess Creature icon on the Research Panel, you can become a Lost Soul and explore the corridors,
tunnels and rooms in the form of an ethereal spirit.

Whether you become a Lost Soul or not, you have the option of watching the
rest of the level before pressing the Space key.

If you’ve won, you’re shown the statistics and high score table to show you how
well you did on that level. Then you’re taken to the Level Map to enter the next
level. If you lost, you’re taken back to the Main Menu.

30.1 STATISTICS SCREEN AND THE HIGH

chance to torture him.

When you press Space to finish the level, you’re taken to the dungeons to

a different torture. Hold down the left mouse button on one of the doors to choose your torture.
Subsequently you’re treated to the Lord’s agonised screams of suffering as he pays the price for
intruding into your subterranean world.
