http://www.gaslampgames.com/2011/12/15/realm-of-the-diggle-gods-released-for-dungeons-of-dredmor/

Now available on Steam for $2.99 and they hope soon enough on Desura!

In the lowest layers of the Dungeons of Dredmor, deeper than any man or woman has ever previously explored, lies the Realm of the Diggle Gods: giant, muscular things, created by the First Diggle in days of old, throbbing with potent gristly muscle and waiting to lay waste to any adventurer who dares to cross their path.

Deep within their underground temples, Lord Dredmor plots the next stage in his campaign of merciless brutality and world-terrorizing.

He’s probably sitting on an egg while he does it. There are a bunch of very large eggs down there, some of which are quite comfortable.

With six new skill trees, five new dungeon levels, a dozen new monster types, over one hundred new items, and a host of new rooms, features, and traps, the Realm of the Diggle Gods will challenge any adventurer – from a novice sword-poker to an advanced master of the arcane arts.

The Diggle Gods await your worship. It’s a very nice dungeon you have here, and it’d be a shame if anything happened to it.

Key features:

    -Six new skill trees: Veganism, Big Game Hunting, Werediggling, Emomancy, Piracy, and Demonology.
    -One Hundred New Items! .. ish.
    -Five new dungeon levels, in a variety of flavours!
    -New mysterious portals that lead to places that will kill you!
    -New scriptable rooms, providing joyful puzzles and traps!
    -A dozen new monster types to fight!
    -Polymorphing!
    -And More!

I think, for historical purposes, this is the first commercial Roguelike to get an "expansion" release, DLC or otherwise, barring the age old one-hand-clapping debate on Diablo.

I am very much enjoying this expansion pack.  I hope to see Dredmor get a couple more of these and they said they would if this one was successful and get the bugs squashed.  Then maybe open it up a bit to the community and I think Dredmor will live long and enter the hall of fame with some of the major roguelikes.

The potential is there.
