Hey PC gamers! Remember Dungeon Keeper? Remember using your Hand of Evil to slap your imps and working really hard to summon Horny? Good times! It's too bad that we never got a Dungeon Keeper 3, and with EA having farmed out the name to a still-unreleased, China-only MMO, the chances of our getting it are looking slimmer by the day.

But not to worry! Germany has your back! Developer Realmforge and Kalypso media have been keeping the fires of imp-spanking greatness burning with the imaginatively-named Dungeons, a game about building an evil dungeon and defending it from heroes with deadly traps and horned monsters. For you young'uns and console-only folks out there, it's a little similar to the PSP's My Lord/Badman games, but deeper and moreSims-esque.

The game is scheduled for a PC release early next year. If they can keep the original's sense of humor and fundamentals down, I'd be quite happy. The rest of you can check out some screenshots below. What about you, though? Are you ready to slap your imps?

Thats awesome, dungeon keeper 1 and 2 were two of my favourite games. Nothing more fun than torturing your own minions.

I still play DK2 now and then, hope this is good and more than just a clone :)

Edit: Also, hope chicken abuse is included.

I loke DK2, it was also Molyneux' last game that wasn't mediocre/sucky as well. Coincidence? I think not.

I always heard good things about the series, but I have never actually played them myself. as for chicken abuse that's peter's thing really.

Excellent, I've been waiting for a sequel ever since the DK3 trailer teaser and it looks like this could fit the bill.

DK2 wasn't by Molyneux as he'd left Bullfrog by then, so you have to go even further back to the original DK, sadly. Black and White, The Movies and Fable are nowhere near his earlier stuff.

Yeah I know, but there were even cinematics about chicken abuse on that one :P
