13 of 13 · most liked firstI'll post my main gripe upfront - if you hate tryhard, cringey millennial humour and constant references to various movie/TV/game franchises without an ounce of originality, don't buy this game. I had it on my Steam wishlist for years and finally decided to drop a few pennies on it one day when it went on sale. And while I do love the gameplay, the narrator and the main character constant meme-y and unoriginal reference humour really, really put me off. Christ! Make it stop! One or two would…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeons 3, developed by Realmforge Studios and published by Kalypso Media, is a well-crafted blend of real-time strategy and dungeon management that builds upon the series’ legacy with a richer narrative and refined gameplay mechanics. Players step into the shoes of the Dungeon Lord, a dark overlord intent on conquering the overworld by expanding his subterranean empire and commanding a variety of sinister minions. The game cleverly merges the tactical depth of managing an underground lair…

Dungeons 3 is a wickedly entertaining real-time strategy and dungeon management game developed by Realmforge Studios. It’s the third (and probably the best) installment in the series, combining sharp humor, chaotic combat, and devilish creativity into a darkly funny experience that appeals to both strategy fans and anyone with a taste for satire. You play as the Absolute Evil, a sarcastic and self-aware villain who…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great game for people that don't like RTS games. Let me explain: I don't like RTS games, generally. Especially when you play against other people. Being rushed to go down the memorized checklist of things as fast as possible to make the optimal build... not to mention the crazy toxicity of DOTA and League... it ain't for me. So, it's rare when an RTS game hooks me. Dungeons 3 is one of those unicorn RTS games that's pulled me in. (For reference, the last 'proper' RTS to do that for me was…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played through all of dungeons 3 and all of dungeons 4. I found 3 to be significantly more enjoyable than 4, primarily in gameplay. In 4 there's not enough synergy to justify having units from multiple factions, the units don't work in the dungeon so there isn't much use for them outside of fighting, the evilness system in 4 is not nearly as enjoyable as it is in 3. The improvements to graphics is negligible at best, nonexistent at worst. The Voice acting and story are as good as they…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really enjoyed the game overall. There's just one game mechanic that ruins everything. The heroes build underground bases, which allows them to teleport around the dungeon and dig new tunnels. This makes defenses useless, and on higher difficulty levels, you simply get overrun. It's a shame there's no way to disable this mechanic.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really want to like this game, but I don't. I've picked it up and put it down twice. I am a huge fan of Dungeon Keeper II, and War for the Overworld. Dungeons III takes the genre in a very different direction than WftO by actually sending you to the overworld. I'm in my thirties, so maybe the humor just misses my age group. I think it missed me when I tried it the first time like five years ago, too, though. It's just not for me.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →- Completed: 100% achievements (base game) - Playtime: 208.9 hours (currently) ✨ - Bought in 2018, Still play's once in a while - Played with: Keyboard + some multiplayer - DLC: None for me (currently) Recommended 👍 (7.5/10) ⭐ Quick Summary: A goofy, parody RTS that doesn’t take itself seriously. You build a dungeon, invade the overworld, and listen to constant, joke filled banter between the narrator and Thalya. You play as the Absolute Evil, possess Thalya, build a dungeon underground,…

unlabelledView post →Multiplayer doesn't work. Should be removed from the store page as it's no longer part of the game. Otherwise it's ok, basically carbon copy of Dungeons 2.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love dungeon keeper, but this has none of the style; an appalingly bland cartoon fantasy setting for something that needs a more baroque edge. The story offended me and the humour made me suffer. I refunded after a little over an hour of gameplay yielded no satisfactory gameplay.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is made nicely, stable and has very beautiful graphics. So much for the pros. But there is almost no challenge, the story is veeery long and annoying and you may not skip it. The humor is political correct (= boring) or even for children. So if the defs use the graphics and 3D models for a challenging production or strategy game, create no story and add no humor, I would buy it. But for this game, I cannot recommend it and will not play it further.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a big fanboy of Dungeon Keeper 2 I must admit: This game is great. The campaign is worth playing through with lots of humour and I can especially reccomend 2 player coop!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeon Master, Dungeons 3, and Evil Genius form an odd trio of games. Each has a slightly different take on the same hybrid genre, with Dungeon Master you have creature ecology and a possession mode you can almost play as an aRPG, Evil Genius is filled with death traps, world domination missions, and villainy archetypes, Dungeons 3 is a bit streamlined / simplified comparatively but has a secondary RTS gameplay loop where you invade the overworld for resources. Comparisons aside, this game is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeons 3 is a mixed bag. If you like Dungeon Keeper type games, this one will do it. It's a little surface level and the the humor is so intentionally over the top, it gets a little tedious at times, but it's tolerable. The base game would be fine except a lot of the acheivements are timed, so you have to sort of rush around to get them. They're not terribly difficult, but it does discourage turtling up. The DLC's are...something else. Most of them anyway. They crank the difficulty up from…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game, reminiscent of the old Dungeon Keeper games from Bullfrog. Campaign is great - I find there's not a lot of replay beyond that, but the campaign is so good you'll definitely get your money's worth. With an 80% off sale? No-brainer purchase.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →5/10 - Boring gameplay - Lame character design - The art style is garbage
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is one is pretty much similar to the first and second one with a slight improvements and continue the story same as with the idiotic minions that are adorable and chill atmosphere that's pretty much good for me and funny humor depending your age. buy it if you want a decent game to play occasionally when you need a little bit silly in your life
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dungeons 3 is a clever mix of dungeon management and real-time strategy that delivers a humorous and engaging fantasy experience. Players take on the role of the Dungeon Lord, building and expanding an underground lair while defending it from heroes and rival factions. The game shines with its witty writing and tongue-in-cheek humor, parodying classic fantasy tropes with style. The combination of base-building, resource management, and tactical combat keeps gameplay varied and rewarding. Above…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got hung up on a cafe with no kitchen or dish pit, then realized the game was having a hell of a time with OBS. Switched over to Dungeons 3 and we talked at length about Good/Evil in games, cynical takes like D3, and what a quality Evil Playthrough should feel like.
unlabelledView post →In my opinion, Dungeons 3 is almost perfect just the way it is. The game stays fun even after hours of playing, and it gets even better when playing in co-op. There is plenty to do: In your own dungeon, you can build and expand rooms, manage production chains, and set up traps, while in the overworld you fight the heroes with your creatures and complete various objectives. The characters and different creatures look really great, and the dialogue is funny and fits the overall style of the game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So massive Bullfrog/Lionhead games fan. Played Dungeons 1 and thought "What the actual hell is this?" - Played Dungeons 2 and went "Finally!" and skipped to Dungeon 3 at some point and I've just been having a blast. Gameplay wise it's wonderful mixing Dungeon Keeper and traditional RTS elements in with the movement above ground. Really love this aspect. This game hits all the previous notes a DK1 or 2 fan could want. If anything the dialogue is very, very hammy but actually, I kinda enjoy it,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dunno what it is about this game but I got hooked really fast. Love the humor and references, the overall gameplay is great, but very aggravating at times when you feel you've done everything right and you still get overwhelmed. A few achievements are just amazingly annoying to get, I had to save scum a bunch of them. DLC difficulty spike is there but if you've learned the systems for the game well enough you just have to sort of retool your strategies from the main campaign to adapt to them,…

Similar to the old "Dungeon Keeper" games, you have to build and "manage" a Dungeon, protecting it from invading "heroes". This time, you can use your evil hero and dark minions to explore the outside World (rendered in a very similar way to the game "Warcraft"). Your ultimate goal is to help the "Ultimate…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Finally a dungeon manager that puts together good gameplay and funny humor. Way better than the previous chapters, and a proper successor to the beloved Dungeon Keeper series!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good dungeon builder game. Can't say I got into it, but I can appreciate it being made so well.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little Dungeon Keeper like game. Had more fun with the 3 dungeons then dungeons 2 which was a pleasant surprise.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yes, it's 2025 and yes, I'm still recommending this game. Took me back to my old WCIII days in the funniest way possible! I'd give it a perfect 5/7 score!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I tried, seemed cool but the dialogue is peak millennial writing I could not take it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't like the narrator with his overdone 'funny' remarks at first. But after a while, it made sense. I laugh. I play. I fight. I build. I curse. I hustly. I look and enjoy. Graphics style is my alley, gameplay with over and underworld and two minimaps is absolutely evilly genius. Handling is perceived clunky at first, but when you got into it, it's really not that bad. I played it first time since years and now I'm making this positive review. It aged very well. Most modern games…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great game, though balancing is a bit off sometimes and some achievements are pretty difficult (especially the speedrun ones). thalya is a great addition to the series! overall, i think 2 was more fun, but this game is still at least an 8/10! definitely reccomend!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The "Dungeons" series is basically the same game. Possibly made by some of the same people. Also has the same humour. Dungeons 3 and 4 are my favourites

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There is no possession spell (switching to first-person mode) here. Granted, this mechanic is likely the hardest to implement well, but without it, nothing else can bring the game up to the same level as its Predecessor (DK series).
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is technically well made. The mechanics are intuitive and natural. The models are stylised to just the right degree to be inviting in the way a homely cartoon is and also to feel like real objects. The problem is that the game is so thickly lacquered with millennial-style post-meaning referential irony that my immersion is broken before I can even get into the game's world.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is fantastic in every possible way! You are Thalya, the adopted, and evil, daughter of Tanos. Your job is to replace the good in the world with bad. Your home is an underground dungeon full of "little snots" who work in the dungeon, digging for gold and mana. As they dig, you have them build the rooms you need such as a graveyard, for your evil creatures to go when they die, a chicken coop so they have food, and of course a treasury room for all the gold the little snots dig up. The…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →since today suddenly the game wont start anymore. just keeps opening their launcher then goes back to the launcher each time in endless mode. the launcher looks like it has been programmed in the 90ies by someone with basic html knowledge anyways so i assume the launcher is the problem. since game became unplayable suddenly now without changes on my end i cannot recommend this game anymore.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The storyline is very cynical, really intrusively so, to the point I felt compelled to write this negative review, in my opinion it's pessimistic negativity is not good for a persons mental health. The game themes it's self around villainy, which led to allot of toxic dialogue in line with that theme, in many instances it directly tells the user how to feel, and it pushes petty vindictive emotional states on the user. Many games have occasional negative voice lines for demonic villain…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The lack of possibility to permanently rotate the camera is driving me crazy. This should not be a difficult fix. Can it be fixed? Thank you.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game. For those of you expecting Dungeon Keeper - Don't, It's more of a DK-RTS hybrid. Story is meh but the narrator makes up for it :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Love this game, hearkens back to the old bull frog Dungeon Keeper. Heavily recommend!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The overworld is a nice addition compared to the old dungeon keeper games, however while the overworld in every level is diverse and has different conditions/setups, the underworld is exactly the same every single game: A few big gold nodes, one diamond node, a few spiders here and there. It feels just like annoying micromanagement to manage the dungeon while doing battles above and switching back in between the two of them. The game isn't even hard (played on hellish mode) just stressful and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really love the premise for this game. Building up a dungeon and controlling evil minions just sounds like a lot of fun. It took me about 27 hours to play through the campaign and mostly I had a lot of fun so it was worth buying on the whole but there are definitely some frustrating things as well. Firstly the campaign narrative is just incredibly annoying. It isn't too bad for 5 minutes but after 27 hours all I wanted was for the narrator to shut up. The campaign has very little actual…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a struggle with trying to manage everything, trying to set up your dungeon with the too frequent occasion of enemy heroes invading your dungeon when you're not ready, and timed objectives that you will most likely fail, unless the heroes you're not ready for manage to destroy your dungeonheart

unlabelledView post →been working on a base builder game, something that'd play a bit like Dungeons 3 at what point do you think an amount of lag is acceptable? like is instantiating 40,000 tiles at once around a 10 second frame spike around right? like it'd never be done on that scale during gameplay so it's fine?

Basically you have to manage and defend your dungeon(underworld) while amassing armies so you can go complete your objectives in the overworld. The overworld is the only place you can find resources for your…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good successor to Dungeons 2. It improved on the building aspect and I liked the narrative of the story. It's nothing immensely deep or philosophical, but I had a lot of fun.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have been looking for a modern version of Dungeon Keeper 2 for the longest time. This is so much fun. Has element of Dungeon Keeper 2 with some nice RTS game play. Looking forward to playing Dungeons and Dungeons 2. Maybe I should have started with them but my brother had this one on his steam account. Played and now i got like 75hrs of game play in.
