The Dungeon Heart is a room in Dungeon Keeper. The Dungeon Heart is a prebuilt room and the first room you start your Dungeon from. The Dungeon Heart represents the Keeper's, and therefore the player's, life. If the player's Dungeon Heart is destoryed then the player will automatically lose whichever level they are playing. Rival Dungeon Keepers also posses Dungeon Hearts and destroying them will kill the Keeper and cause their territory to revert to an unclaimed state.
