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 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 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.

Я не из тех у кого Данжон Кипер был игрой детства/юности - я поиграл во 2 часть уже в 00е и было прикольно, но игра не очень хорошо состарилась да и контента было мало. Сия игра условно 3 часть и она отлично с этой ролью справляется. Правда ей самой уже 10 лет, поэтому кому-то может показаться слишком простой визуально. По факту же ДК2 но где больше существ, заклинаний, механик и оно работает хорошо! Правда не хватает немного глубины, но это видимо во мне просыпается фанат Меджести - хочется чтобы монстры не только ходили за деньгами и жрали, но и покупали артефакты, делали ставки на арене и тп Еще не понял почему суккубы выглядят куда стремнее чем латексные госпожули из ДК2? Кого такие уродины могут переманить? :) Но вроде как авторы работают над новой игрой, надеюсь она будет во много раз лучше и глубже! Тем более завершение ванильной кампании многообещающее - хотелось бы попробовать себя и за Наблюдателя, а не только владыку подземного мира.

Sucesor espiritual de Dungeon Keeper. Me encanta el juego y si fuera más largo lo jugaría siempre. El juego está correctamente traducido en español así que no tengas miedo en comprarlo y jugarlo. Dato importante, es posible jugarlo desde la Steam Deck pero es mucho más cómodo desde PC obviamente.

Great game, can't wait for a story continuation. Come back to it from time to time just to play a good dungeon keeper like.
super gra
This is a pretty fun game. Reminds me of the old Dungeon Master games, which I believe is one of the inpirations for this obviously.
Sentyment do DK

A mon goût, le meilleur dungeon keeper like modernisé et fidèle à l'ambiance originelle.
Go play dungeon keeper 1 or 2 ....this title sucks. boring story, boring level design...boring monsters. utter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and a total embarrasment!
