I somehow missed this a few days ago, buy Paradox and Cyanide Studios have announced Impire, an upcoming Dungeon Keeper-like that will allow players to “[r]un your Impire by defending against heroes invading a personalized demonic compound while also sending underlings to the surface to wreak chaos among those who call the land near your Impire home. Utilizing a vast array of minions, deadly traps, and a growing arsenal of wicked spells, players will guide the demon Báal-Abaddon to his rightful place atop the skulls of his mortal foes… just as soon as they can help him escape the body of a pathetic little imp,” according to the press release, which seems just a little dramatic, I think. Also promised are customizable minions with equipment and whatnot, customizable magic item card decks (waiting for the ability to buy packs of them with real money), user-designed levels, and solo and co-op play. I loved Dungeon Keeper 2 so much and I can’t believe it has taken this long to get a decent clone of it. Hoping that this will be the one.
Okay, you are officially out of excuses to play Spelunky since I saw over on Joystiq that you can play the frustrating yet extremely enjoyable platforming roguelike treasure collection thing right in the comfort of your browser. Right now.

Talk amongst yourselves. And with me. I, too, will be talking. About this article. And tangentially related things.
