Obtaining Keen 1:
Keen episode 1 can be freely distributed. Download Keen 1 v1.31 here. Unzip the files into a folder and you're ready to go!
Obtaining Keen 2 and 3:
Keen episodes 2 and 3 (along with episode 1) can be purchased for US$20 from 3DRealms [update 2020: dead link], on a CD. Also included in this purchase are episodes 4, and 5. You can also purchase a download of episodes 1, 2, and 3 only from 3DRealms for just US$10 [update 2020: dead link] -- But I'd recommend getting the CD. And you can also purchase a download of episodes 1, 2, and 3 from id Software, but they charge US$15 for it.
Updating Keen 2 and 3:
If you already have Keen 2 or 3, but some mods or patches don't work, you probably have version 1.0. The latest version is 1.31, which fixes a few bugs. But you don't need to purchase another copy: Xtraverse has made some patches that you can freely download to update Keen 2 v1.0 to v1.31 and Keen 3 v1.0 to v1.31.
