Once upon a time, in a distant land, everything was lush and green. Unicorns walked in the forest, and elves and humans lived in harmony with their surroundings. But somewhere on the edge of a clearing, partially hidden among the trees, there is a dilapidated hut. Inside the hut, in the darkness and floating mist, a figure can be seen bent over a large, ominously glowing crystal ball. A babbling voice sings ancient formulas, urging the glowing, swirling clouds inside the sphere to part and provide a glimpse into the future. "Everything is changing, nothing is certain. Come, grimaces of time and space. Pull back the veil to show us what's to come," the voice murmurs. Under the hood of the figure, one eye glistens. The observer of the figure, barely visible in the dim light, leans forward and listens attentively. "Time flows back and forth, creating folds on reality... But as the mist clears, only blurred images emerge from behind the curtain. Cii... Don't get too close. You don't want to disturb these delicate spells, do you?" whispers the figure, still bent over the sphere, driving the observer back into the shadows. "Ah, the picture becomes clearer. I see... something... A few things. Traces of voices echoing in the fog. An infant. Something is happening on Doomshill. The Council of Idiots is meeting. What could all this mean?" The light reflected in the eye suddenly turns red, and ominous laughter echoes through the forest. Expect the return of the fortune-telling! The Greatest Evil and his trusted *cough* subject – the dark elf Thalya – return to Dungeons 4 after the events of the previous installment of the series to triumph over the forces of good once again. Build a comfortable and cozy dungeon that will suit the needs of your creatures. Then send these creatures to the surface world to kindly remind the good people who live there that the Greatest Evil still reigns in these lands. Accumulate your evil in new and dynamic ways, then unleash it in the lush green forests and plains of the surface world to draw it down to the dark side. But make sure your dungeon is well secured by traps and defended by creatures, because these pesky inhabitants of the world on the surface will not remain idle as you turn their lands into a true paradise for the Greatest Evil. But what kind of noise is that? "Gold, gold, gold! And gems! Gold and gems. And also gold!" An ancient song resounds throughout the underground. It is accompanied by the clatter of steel, hammers and axes. The dwarves have come to get their share of the abundant resources. They will work with humans and elves from the surface world to send groups of seekers to find the heart of the dungeon. Dungeons 4 retains the spirit of its predecessor, but everything is now bigger, better, and features even more dynamic Evil™. Everything is better with the Dwarves™: The Dwarves have come to build their underground strongholds. These small, persistent men (who don't like to be called that) compete with the ever-expanding evil for space and resources. Make your dungeon big again: Dungeons are four times larger than before, and there are many more creatures waiting for orders from the commanding evil to conquer the world on the surface. It's finally time for huge armies and vast dungeons! Time to conquer: The world on the surface is bigger than ever before. Conquer evil by defeating minibosses – such as the obsessively harmonious unicorn – and use it to transform the world on the surface into wondrous biomes of pure evil. Shiny News: An ability-based perk system for Thala, the trusted *cough* and most loyal subordinate of the Greatest Evil, grants her impressive new powers. The Greatest Evil can now enjoy taking over the world, ruling creatures, and punishing subordinates even more with the customizable hand of evil. Minions Everywhere: The horde, the undead, and demons await the orders of the Greatest Evil. More creatures will be guided by gestures of evil than ever before. In addition, the idiots will play a much more significant role this time. Multiple ways to tell the story: We'll present a long campaign told by everyone's beloved English narrator from the previous installments of the series. There will also be several skirmishes that will challenge your rule as the Greatest Evil. Change the world: Spread your evil around the world on the surface to pull lush and green environments to the dark side. With this kind of evil, you'll see many beautiful fallen biomes.
