Head on over to GOG.com and grab DK1 plus expansion, FREE for the next 24 hours. Thanks GOG! :)
Thanks Shelldrake!
Apparently there is such a long queue to get a free copy of this game that it takes time for them to add it to your account.
They even displayed a message saying so, telling me I'll be notified by email when they've added it to my account :P

I got the same message but the game was in my account within the hour.

Same here. I wonder how well this game has held up?

I'm thankful they implemented a queue for this freebie. They obviously learned from the last couple times how it could bring their bandwidth to a screeching halt for a time, which is never good.
If they hadn't done this, I doubt we would've been able to load their web pages in any decent amount of time. ;)
Thanks for the heads up!
Some other damned-good offers too. D&D's for 80% off and just released Ascalon Book 3. I might buy something just to support this site and their good work. Anybody had any negative experiences with this site?

My experiences with GOG.com have all been positive. I've purchased at least a half-dozen games through them over the past few years. No problems at all and picked up some classic games for just a few bucks each.
Same thing here, a wait in store, but pfft, it's free. Plus this is no different then the time they put Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics up for free...although then it was more of a clusterf*ck so this must be their fix. 8)
Second Mirth's praise...GOG has never given me problems and they always have some great classic games for cheap. Never a problem installing or running anything thus far.
I see it in my account as well (without having received an email about it).
Yep, it's in mine as well without me having to do anything. Sweet.
I got it pretty quick too. Email notification and saw it in my library.
Sheldrake - thanks for the heads up
Thanks a dungeon load Shelldrake!
Did anyone ever play it at full moon?
I got the email notification for this one, so I grabbed it right away. I remember playing DungeonKeeper many moons ago, and I rather enjoyed the experience. :)
I never played it before. Hoping to finish cleaning up my hard drive before I try to install it.
It probably looks pretty terrible nowadays. Many of those 90s 3D graphics look like a splash of nondescript multi-colored vomit anymore. Pretty rough stuff.
Makes me realize why my visual focus finally going bad.

I dug out my copy of Magic Carpet the other day and know what you mean about the GFX, TBH I think it gives them a certain charm, if the gameplay aspect today was taken as seriously as it was way back then the gaming world would not be so predictable. Dungeon Keeper's GFX are about the same, functional but the added 'walk about as a creature' is a nice touch.
Just wish they would make a HD remake of these games, Magic Carpet would be amazing.
