Anyone got their grubby hands on it yet? Reading from their forums, Steam version will the extra mission exclusively to Steam buyers while boxed-set special edition will probably have stuff like poster or soundtrack only. I can't see the pricing for this Steam edition though, wondering if it is due to my proxy issues or pricing is just not out yet.

GamersGate has it as well: GGate Dungeons

Their pre-order bonus is a free game "Ceville" (something like Monkey Island), at USD39.95.

#For those who are interested, Kalypso released the game's theme song for download (sounds not bad, makes me thought of old Dungeon Keeper somehow): Kalypso's Dungeons Thread

Guess Steam haven't decide/finalize the pricing then. Guessing it will be around USD40-50 though, adding the extra stuff from Steam edition along with GGate's pricing.

Couldn't see the site from office, proxy not good enough to display flash based stuff. Still, the game play/idea sounds decent along with my desperate need for some DK styled stuff, I am quite willing to give it a go.

Tried it out last night and my advice? Don't get it if you are getting it for the sake of the old Dungeon Keeper. Practically nothing of the original game play (though wall digging is still there and the whole frigging game is actually designed like DK game).

To be fair (and not demeaning), it is quite fun using Deimos to run around and smacking heroes down (you can build up stats and learn skills from three different skill trees). I did find it annoying though, that you as some big ass Dungeon lord and yet you can't control/order your minions to attack a specific hero. You will usually have to chase and kill them yourself (maybe there's more bigger unit to spawn in the later stages though, I am still in the early stages).

Anyway, I guess as how Kalypso said it previously (on the interviews), play it as a different and new game and stop imagining it as a revival of Dungeon Keeper, it will be much more satisfying.

Apart from the goblin controlling part, yeah, it is very similar to an Overlord game with you controlling the overlord to kill/break stuff. Dungeons does give you more RPG style with the stats/skills build though.

Put in a few more hours last night, and I was inspired enough to install back my old Dungeon Keeper 2 instead. The walls digging and rooms keep reminding me that I had so much more fun in DK2 instead of Dungeons. Seriously, save the money and wait for a sale as Gormaz said it.
