## What is Gold Keeper?

Ever wish you were the bad guy for once?  Want to play the demon? 

There’s an opening for a demonic Gold Keeper in this app.  If you relish killing thieving villagers, then you may just be perfect for the position.

The good news is that you have gold in your cave, lots of it.  Bad news is that those no good commoners from the nearby village want to steal it from you.  Your job is to protect your fortune, no matter what.  If a few crooked villagers die in the process, so be it.  You don’t care, you’re a demon.  Demons have no remorse or conscience.  In fact, you have a sign at the entrance of your cave that warns the nasty crooks – “Violators will be killed!  Survivors will be killed again!”  That pretty much sums up what your duties are as Gold Keeper demon.

One word of caution about these violating settlers – they can become more powerful.  Don’t turn your back on these rogues for long or your job will become a little bit tougher.

Gold Keeper outfits you with three great weapons to use as you please.  Kill, maim, whatever you like.  Each weapon gives you a different experience, so you may want to switch from time to time, just for fun.  If your victim is standing in the right location, you may even fling him against your screen and crack it.  Players have been known to engage in maniacal laughter when this happens, heady with demon power.

It’s easy for you to get into character on your iPhone or iPod Touch with the 3D imaging of this game.  The life-like graphics help you to imagine yourself swinging the giant axe and the sound of the dying bandits will fill your demon heart with glee.

So, what do you say?  Are you bad enough to be the demon?  There’s only one way to know for sure.  Take a deep breath and get started.

### 3/5 — Alright

*2013-06-11*

I'm not much in to RPGs but this was a cool game .

### 5/5 — Ахахха

*2011-03-12*

За озвучку респект!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic !

*2010-03-29*

You have to get this Game !

### 2/5 — That's it?

*2010-01-30*

I understand the price is only $.99 but that's it. There are plenty of games for this price and they will send out a update or two. There was no update with any in game enhancement . No speed bursts, no booby traps for the humans. I have a nice stash of gold but can't buy anything. Gold keeper 2 is now out there, don't expect an update for that one either.

### 5/5 — Before you buy, you must realize

*2009-09-19*

this game isn't particularly in-depth, there's not a storyline, BUT. what you should know is that the 3D graphics are STUNNING. my friend saw me playing this game and the 1st thing he said was whoa! those graphics are amazing the devs must've put a lot of work in. all in all, for a buck, you cant go wrong, and everytime one of those helpless humans smacks against ur screen and cracks it, you'll realize how good of a buy this app was.

### 5/5 — Suggestions

*2009-09-06*

1. Have enemys drop gold.
2. Minions.
3. Use gold 2 buy defences.



Come to the dark side. We have cookies. : ).   















============================================================

### 1/5 — mediocre timewaster

*2009-09-06*

Decent gameplay and graphics but not much to it. fun to play until you smack a guy into the screen, but then what? Maybe if you earned gold to get better weapons than just a sledgehammer or gained experience for killing peasants beyond just gaining the ability to do a special move. This would be fine for a free app, but there are plenty of other games out there worthy of your dollar. This is not one of them.

### 3/5 — ok >.<

*2009-09-03*

This game rocks on the concept but it really needs some updates like maybe dude put in some more people types or put in some more types of people/monsters to steal his treasure and also try and get some more weapons lol maybe you can even get something like chain sword or something nice like that but anyways i rate you a 3 and if you get updates it'll prolby go UP :)...!?

### 3/5 — Don't believe the hype

*2009-08-31*

This game is okay, but not spectacular.  The 3D animation is good for the platform and it appears to function well, but unlike iDracula, it starts getting repetitious after about 6 minutes.  Maybe v 1.1 will add sufficient new features to it to change my mind.  I wouldn't pay over a buck for it in its current state.  At least I don't have a repetitve stress injury from it like Knights Onrush.

### 5/5 — Recommended

*2009-08-23*

A very polished game. Great 3d graphics.A must for those who like iDracula.
