Also, the UI is cluttered and often completely obtuse. In the campaign mode, the player is charged with recovering the portal gems from each area in order to open a portal to the surface. There are a few other knocks I have against the game-namely, that the dungeon controls are super picky and imprecise, which is all the more noticeable when you come back from the tight RTS controls in the other half of the game. The sequel to Dungeon Keeper, the player takes the role of a dungeon keeper, building and defending an underground dungeon from the would-be heroes that invade it, as well as from other keepers.

The problem is the initial challenge of managing both your dungeon and your aboveground troops is all-too-quickly replaced by the feeling you’re knocking against the game’s skill ceiling. If either side were as fully-featured as your standard RTS or Dungeon Keeper imitator, there’s no way a player could pay attention to both sides. Play a normal singleplayer match though and you’ll quickly reach the same impasse, and this time it’s not because the game’s holding something back. The Dungeons 2 campaign is actually kind of brilliant because it masks the game’s biggest problem-when you run out of things to do, you can ascribe it to the level’s built-in constraints. It was the sequel to Peter Molyneuxs Dungeon Keeper and predecessor to the cancelled Dungeon Keeper 3. It was released in Europe and North America in June 1999. The problem is exacerbated once you leave the campaign’s training wheels behind. Dungeon Keeper 2 is an PC strategy game developed by Bullfrog Productions and published by Electronic Arts in 1999 for Microsoft Windows.
