War for the Overworld is an unholy union of Dungeon Management and Strategy that rewards all those villainous thoughts you’ve been having. Craft your own perilous dungeon and defend it against pesky heroes who keep exploring it and taking your stuff.

Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1/day in the week to Aug 22 → 0.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Tired of invading dungeons? It's time you built your own!
Do you feel you’re in a slump, monotonously disembowelling evil guys in endless quests for gold and a slightly better pair of boots? Are you starting to wonder if heroics really are your calling? Then welcome to the War for the Overworld!


Excavate and build your dungeon beneath the overworld, in the modern dungeon management game that’s most faithful to the genre’s original DNA. Keep your dungeons, slap your minions, and forge underground fortresses filled with all the dastardly rooms, traps and heinous minions you desire. Do it all under the mentorship of the original and best voice of evil: Richard Ridings!


Evil loves options, and within the Veins of Evil there are plenty to go around! Choose from over sixty rooms, spells, potions, rituals, defences and constructs as you progress through the game. Deploy your fiendish tools against the goodly heroes of the overworld, and teach them the price of trespass.


With six game modes to choose from you can conquer your enemies in your own unique way. Choose from Campaign, Skirmish, Scenarios, Multiplayer, Survival, and the My Pet Dungeon expansion (free 2-level demo included in the base game), and discover what it truly means to be the bad guy.


Build your own maps and campaigns with the intuitive and powerful Map Editor, complete with scripting support, then share them on the Steam Workshop to join the ranks of thousands of custom maps already created! Meddle further, and change the very rules themselves to your liking with dozens of mutators. Being evil has never been so creative!


War for the Overworld is developed by an independent team of fanatical developers, each with a true love of the dungeon management genre. We have continued to update the game since launch, with countless patches, balancing, polish, and many new features. Our community has been vital to our success, and we couldn’t have made the game what it is today without their help. We thank them sincerely.

Nice remake of Dungen keeper
Best Dungeon Keeper like out there...as long you have all DLCs for all content. However, most people play it for the multiplayer and rush for a quick victory, so if you want slow and steady you play the singleplayer, but the AI both from the enemy dungeon and your minions start to breakdown after the hour mark. Sometimes your own workers decide to ignore sections of the maps you told to dig for no reason, even if there is nothing else to do and you havent used a banner that prevents them from getting or working there. Devs are giving small updates over the years but they are working on Galacticare now, so dont expect anything mayor or intense as fixing AI problems.

if you loved the original dungeon keeper games this game will bring you back.
It's a fun Dungeon Keeper 3 type of game
dude the original campaign is crap, the second even worse ive tried and ive tried and just pass this up go play any of the dungeons any of them are far and agian better then this trash
Imagine if a resonant voice from the past suddenly spoke up, extolling the virtues of Evil...
I am a little torn on this game. It is a fun game but the base game seems to reward rushing rather than being able to take time building up a big dungeon. If you are a fan of the original dungeon keeper games, you will probably enjoy this.
很抱歉我这么晚才发现dk的精神续作,游戏致敬了牛蛙的地下城守护者,从建筑兵种再到战役种种,可以算是地下城系列集大成之作。游戏战役确实不错,在原有基础下再加以创新,不过内核可能有点过于繁琐,同样定位dk的法师和异教徒,法师可以升级魔法小鬼也不需要这么多魔耗,药水和避难所以及建筑和陷阱感觉应该放一块而不是区分开来显得定位很奇怪。我知道避难所就是dk神殿,但是dk神殿膜拜是能加魔并且吸引暗黑天使的。将萤火虫和蜥蜴换成了野兽系统里面,我不能理解的是有幽魂能干侦查的事为什么后期还要放野兽的萤火虫瞎捣蛋。同样在敌人领地上,己方就不能将兵拖走,但是基于地下城本身就有索敌范围的问题,这个恐怕就会很容易就稍有不慎就暴毙几个瞎跑的或者闲逛的。总的来说确实带劲,彩蛋加上其他,就是在语音太难绷,想学dk的语音但是又想搞怪就很难绷了
I didn't like Dungeon Keeper, I don't like this one either. The UI is messy.
