Introduction.
Keeper, you are well on your way. Let us begin with the basics anyone should know to be a successful Keeper, firstly a survey to see if you qualify.
1. Does a sticky kiss from a small child, A) make you smile, or B) give you a stabbing pain between the eyes?
2. Does the idea of job satisfaction include A) a wooden plaque that says “employee of the month” or B) piles and piles of gold?
3. Would you rather give your employees A) Health benefits or B) a temple where they can worship your graven image?
If you answered b to any of the above you qualify to become a keeper. Now on to the basics.
Dungeon keeper is a god Style game where you are represented by the hand in the middle of the screen. The aim of each game is to defeat either rival keepers or the goodly heroes in order to obtain what is known as a portal gem. Once all of the portal gems are in your hands then you can reach the over world and destroy the goodly heroes forever and rule supreme.
