The nights grow dark and the days grow ever shorter as we head into the twilight months of 2019. It’s been a busy year for us at Brightrock Games, though we realise it’s been quiet on the news front for all of you, our valued fans, eagerly awaiting info on what’s next.
To that, we say that 2020 should be quite an exciting year for us all in which Brightrock takes the next step. We can’t wait to share what we’re cooking up with you!
In the meantime, we’re keeping the dungeon core of War for the Overworld beating with this month’s community spotlight, and our participation in the Steam Halloween Sale!
So without further ado let’s get cracking!
With the spookiest of days descending upon Steam, we’re pleased to announce that War for the Overworld and all its DLC will be on sale in this Halloween! From now until 1 November we’re running the following discounts:
- War for the Overworld – Base Game – 75% Off
- Underlord Edition Content – 75% Off
- Heart of Gold Expansion – 65% Off
- My Pet Dungeon Expansion – 40% Off
- The Under Games Expansion – 20% Off
- Seasonal Worker Skins – 80% Off
Given the nature of the season, we thought we’d offer a spook-tacular discount for those looking to get into the creepy spirit of this harrowing holiday, with a full 90% off on the Seasonal Worker Skins, the maximum we can offer in a Steam Sale! You can finally grab that maimed imp the Jack O’Worker, along with all his seasonal buddies, for the paranormal price of £0.40 / $0.60 / €0.60! Head on over to Steam now to grab yours!
If you’ve ever fancied getting your hands on these 4 exclusive skins then now’s the best opportunity!
Before we jump into our selection of community-made maps for this spotlight, we’re announcing a few changes to the format!
Firstly, as WFTO continues to ramp down with the flow of community maps, and our resources available to curate them become less, we’re changing the cadence of spotlights to once every three months, or each quarter.
This means that this quarter’s spotlight will be the Autumn (Q4) spotlight covering October, November and December. In January we’ll review the maps from the last few months and choose our favourites, and then continue for the foreseeable future!
In addition, where previously we’ve tried to select maps to match a predefined format and template, we’ll instead be more variable each quarter, selecting between 5 and 10 items from the workshop to feature, regardless of their category!
That covers our changes, so let’s get on to what you’re here for: the maps!
You can download all of our spotlighted content from the Steam Collection or via our website!

That covers our news today. As we said in the opening, we know things are quiet right now, but for Brightrock Games big news is on the way. However, that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten WFTO – we’re still eager to push out some fixes to your issues in the coming months! So if you encounter any be sure that it’s in our triage queue on UserEcho, so that we can give it the due consideration.
And of course, don’t forget the Halloween Sale before this haunting season sadly comes to an end.
See you soon Underlords!

War for the Overworld is a real-time strategyvideo game developed by Subterranean Games, which changed its name to Brightrock Games based in Brighton, UK. The game started as a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, which ran from November 29, 2012, to January 3, 2013. In the game, players build dungeons containing deadly traps to kill adventuring heroes that enter.[3] The game is inspired by Dungeon Keeper, StarCraft, Overlord, and Evil Genius.[3] It includes a campaign, sandbox mode, and online multiplayer.[3]
Gameplay[edit]
War For The Overworld - Heart Of Gold Expansion Downloads
In the game, players assume the role of an Underlord tasked with building dungeons that contain deadly traps and enemies to kill wandering heroes.[4] The game starts with a blank slate and lets players choose where to 'dig, fortify, and build' to create their dungeon.[4] The game is played in real time, with the player actively making decisions while fighting occurs.[4] Armies of minions can be trained and commanded to vanquish foes, and spells are available which can injure enemies or assist minions during battle.[4] The game requires micromanagement to keep minions working, supplying them with food and gold.[4]
History[edit]
Origins[edit]
War for the Overworld started development in 2009 as a fan-made sequel to Dungeon Keeper and Dungeon Keeper 2.[5] Taking its name from the subtitle of the defunct Dungeon Keeper 3, the game went through several incarnations, starting with a version based on a custom OpenGL engine, and later Unreal Development Kit,[6] it was announced in November 2011 that a decision had been made to leave the Dungeon Keeper IP[7] and the team finally settled on using the Unity Engine, announcing the change in June 2012.[8]
Subterranean games went on to join with another indie developer called Rise Games who had been working on Epoch Saga: Shattered Shores, a role-playing game set in Atlantis.[9] announcing the collaboration September 2012.[10]
Funding campaign[edit]
On November 29, 2012, Subterranean Games launched a Kickstarter campaign for their game with a £150,000 goal set for January 3, 2013.[11] For every £75,000 the campaign receives, the developers plan to release one of twelve flex goals determined by vote.[3][12] These goals offer extra content for the game including more multiplayer and co-op content and a dungeon crawl mode which lets players be the hero in the dungeon scenario.[3] Backers—people that pledge during the campaign—are given rewards based on the size of their pledge.[11] Rewards include beta access, a digital copy of the game, and a copy of the game's soundtrack.[11] If the campaign reaches its base goal, the developers plan to release the game on Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux on August 30, 2013, and they would additionally release a modding tool to the community.[11] Called the Dungeoneer, it would allow users to create new maps, campaigns and game modes.[11]
On December 22, 2012 Dungeon Keeper creator Peter Molyneux praised Subterranean Games passion and strategy in making the game and asked people to pledge to the Kickstarter campaign.[13]
By December 29, 2012 the £150,000 target was made through Kickstarter pledges.[12] A total of £211,371 was reached at the end of the Kickstarter campaign on January 3, 2013.[14] Further pledges via PayPal increased the amount to over £225,000 on January 6, 2013 securing the first flex goal of Richard Ridings as narrator.[15]
Development and early releases[edit]
An Alpha version of the game, dubbed Bedrock Beta, was released on May 15, 2013, allowing players to experience the game during development, as well as assist in development by reporting bugs and giving feedback on their experience.
On February 5, 2014, Subterranean Games sent out an update regarding the delayed delivery date, stating they 'were extremely naive with our initial estimate[..] as to how long it would take to release the game', without issuing a new release date, instead turning to Steam Early Access.[16]
Release[edit]
The game was released on April 2, 2015[17], in an unfinished state due to time and financial constraints.[18] This resulted in the development team working extreme hours to release a series of patches over the following weeks and months. By September, 'a lot of the loose ends' were fixed with the 1.2 patch. Subsequent patches were released over the next three years, adding features including a map editor, steam workshop support, a tower defense mode called The Crucible, and finally a scripting system for the editor in the 2.0 release.[19]
Expansions[edit]
The game received a total of three expansions from 2016-2018:
Heart of Gold was released on May 27, 2016.[20] The expansion continues the story from the base game with four additional levels, a new underlord and associated cosmetic additions.[21]
My Pet Dungeon was released on April 3, 2017. It was inspired by the eponymous mode from Dungeon Keeper 2.[22][23] The eight level campaign features levels without gateways, with units instead needing to be rescued from prisons around the map. A 'God mode' is also unlocked after completion, with wave based gameplay.
The Under Games was released on April 20, 2018, containing a seven level campaign, new AI, and three new underlords.[24] An Ultimate Edition of the game was launched alongside, which includes all three expansions.
Reception[edit]
The game has a score of 65% on Metacritic with a user score of 7.3[25]
