Dungeon Decree #1: Dungeon-Revolver-Duels between Snots are now banned!

Dungeon Decree #1: Dungeon-Revolver-Duels between Snots are now banned!


After various instances of not-so-honorable revolver duels between the little snot population, the Ultimate Evil hereby decrees the following:

The solution of conflicts via shootouts is now prohibited inside the Dungeons!

If you do feel the desire to brutally off each other, please do so at least 5 meters away from the OUTSIDE of the Dungeon entrance (and preferrably, take some forces of good with you while you are at it.).
AND FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING EVIL LEAVE THE DUNGEON INTERIOR INTACT.

Violation of this decree will lead to no dinner for a week and adequate punishment in the torture chamber (Snoddel will be punished differently, the succubi still have trauma from his last torture session because he was too into it).

Snot Snif busted while sneaking back from a duel that lead to the wreckage of the gobbler enclosure.

The Good, the Bad and the Evil DLC just released! All Aboard the Evil Train!

All Aboard the Evil Train - Dungeons 4: The Good, the Bad and the Evil arrives today!


[h2]Thalya and the Absolute Evil take on the Wild West in Dungeons 4 first DLC[/h2]



We have today released Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil, the first DLC for Dungeons 4. This enticingly evil new addition to the Dungeons franchise is now available for €14.99/£12.99 with a 10% discount on Steam, The Epic Games Store, PlayStation Store (PS Plus members only), and Microsoft Store for 7 days after launch. Available on Steam, PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, with the base Dungeons 4 game available to play now with Game Pass for console, PC, and cloud.

In this Wild-West-themed adventure, Thalya and the Engineering-Evil face new challenges as the Dwarves make a dramatic return to the Overworld with brand-new technology inspired by the highly recognisable (but not quite copyrightable – we checked) Western biome. Fight across five new missions, all featuring the wonderful(ly evil) Kevan Brighting, who reprises his role as the ever-iconic, and often sardonic Narrator.

The DLC brings a host of new content, including additional traps, vermin and passive skills for the Absolute Evil’s right-hand Elf, Thalya. But whilst Thalya’s skills may be passive, the forces of good are anything but! Their champion, Brynnhild the Dwarf Queen, along with her annoyingly non-evil twin, will push Thalya’s skills (and patience) to their limit. Will you have what it takes to dominate the West with your evil prowess, or will Brynnhild and her dwarven comrades claim this new land in the name of all that is good, hopeful, and boring?
Prepare for an epic showdown and dive into the latest expansion of the Dungeons universe today!

[h3]Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil Features[/h3]

  • Reinforcement of The Good™: Four new dwarven units spice up the battle between Evil and Good – the Pistolero, the Machine Dwarf, the Crack Shot and the Brewmaster.
  • The Train-loving Evil rejoices: Steam locomotives roar through the prairie, filled to the brim with dynamite-throwing, gun-slinging dwarves. Crack their armour and unleash your inner train enthusiast, building your own train to punch the dwarves' final ticket.
  • Vermin alarm!: Manavores, Spiders and Lavalumps are joined by the “delightful” Giant Scorpions that skulk through your dungeon and the overworld.
  • Home Sweet Home: The Forces of Evil have enhanced your dungeon with new traps, like the lava-spitting Hydro-Lava-non or the Steam trap cooking heroes like dim-sum, and building options, like Floor Grates enabling you to build on lava or water.
  • The return of the Dwarf Queen: Brynnhild is back in the game (and gosh, she even has a twin) and she’s using that steamy steel monster train against YOU!
  • Dressed to kill: Thalya takes this literally! She goes full Wicked Wild West and even brings some new passive skills into the fight against the Good.
