About these games

Dungeons 3

Dungeons 3 combines a dungeon management simulation with an RTS mode on the overworld. Players build an underground dungeon from a large number of rooms, traps and structures, and raise an army of creatures including orcs, succubae and zombies. They then lead their forces up from the darkness into the overworld, where they corrupt the land and defeat anything heroic. The new character Thalya, a dark elf priestess, commands the united forces of evil. The game offers an extensive single-player campaign with 20 missions, randomly generated levels and a co-op mode for two players.

Dungeons 4

Dungeons 4 is a simulation and strategy game in which you play as the Absolute Evil and its trusted servant, the Dark Elf Thalya, aiming to triumph over the forces of good. You build a cozy dungeon tailored to your creatures’ needs, rule over them, and send them into the Overworld to remind its inhabitants that the Absolute Evil holds sway over their lands. You gather your Evilness in new ways and spread it across the green forests and plains, while keeping your dungeon secured with traps and defended by your creatures against the Overworlders.

Dungeon Tycoon

In Dungeon Tycoon you build and run your own dungeon and attract heroes from across the realm. You design the layout of corridors and rooms, place traps and hire monsters to face the adventurers, and sell potions and other aids to visitors. Watch how heroes move through the dungeon and refine your design accordingly. It is a simulation and strategy game about keeping your evil dungeon business running.

Hammerting

Hammerting is a vertical dwarven mining colony sim with RPG elements. The player runs a Dwarf clan in the unexplored mountains of Mara, building a mining operation, forging weapons and delving deeper while war rages in the Overworld. Allies send requests, like silver swords against an oncoming army, and each delivery brings victory closer; the growing base gains conveyor belts and elevators, and every Dwarf has their own stats, ancestry and traits. The deepest levels hold the most powerful materials, hottest magma and greatest danger, so a safe route down matters, and dwarven mechanisms handle liquids and physics.

Evil Genius

Evil Genius is a strategy game about world domination in which the player manages the daily routines of a wicked mastermind. You build a secret base and develop super-weapons, including a doomsday device meant to win total control over the world. One of three notorious Evil Genius characters serves as your icon. The lair can be furnished with over 300 items, such as kung fu academies, rocket caverns and laboratories, while traps and interrogation devices are used against government agents. You train minions in fields like experimental research, heavy weapons and international sabotage, and recruit henchmen who guard the base and carry out missions that raise your power and notoriety.

Castle Story

Castle Story is a strategy game with a voxel-based world, where you build castles one brick at a time with an army of small creatures called Bricktrons. The Bricktrons explore floating islands, gather resources and reshape the terrain. They must defend themselves against hostile Corruptrons, using catapults, explosive barrels or traps. The game includes the multiplayer modes Conquest and Co-Op Invasion, a sandbox mode and the World Editor for creating and sharing custom maps.
