 The game can no longer be played under Vista or newer Windows with on-board resources. But there is [[http://keeper.lubiki.pl/html/dk_keeperfx.php|KeeperFX]]. This tool has many nice features. You can change the resolution of the game, you can change the language and apparently there is also a TCP connection implemented for the network game. But it still requires the original data. So no KeeperFX without the original game. All you have to do is unpack their archive, use the launcher in it and specify the directory ''KEEPER'' on the CD. And you can play DK again. The game can no longer be played under Vista or newer Windows with on-board resources. But there is [[http://keeper.lubiki.pl/html/dk_keeperfx.php|KeeperFX]].

 Under Linux DK can be played at least with KeeperFX under Wine. It is necessary to adjust the resolution accordingly and start it in window mode via the launcher. But then it works surprisingly well (Tested under Ubuntu 14.04 x64 with Wine 1.7.55). The frame rates look a bit worse. Especially if you increase the frame drop with ''CTRL'' + ''+'' or ''CTRL'' + ''-'', the game is noticeably slower than it would be on the same computer under Windows. Under Linux DK can be played at least with KeeperFX under Wine.
