A fantasy game that finally lets you play as an evil villian...or are you?
Overlord starts off when you the Overlord is awaken by a bunch of minions which later after the quick training session,minions are basically your army in a way the do your bidding from ether pillaging,killing,gathering or in some ways make you get a quick laugh at the slaughter of helpless sheep or villagers.As you progress through the world of Overlord which btw looks pretty amazing (basically an upgraded version of fable or a fantasy tale) which can go from a local village to a elven forest full of rabid mystical creatures that arent so cute up close.Once in awhile inbetween going from zone to zone you can visit your tower which can be upgraded to suit your evil or not so evil persona and you can test your fighting skills within the dungeon which as you progress through out the game you can fight the monsters that you come across.At first some people may not notice the funny dialogue inbetween your minions which to me is one of the high lights of the game which can give you a chuckle inbetween the brutal acts of committing evil deeds or lesser evil deeds.The replay value can be up there since you have to play at least twice to get the majority of the unlockables and a few other achievements which most likely you wont be able to get in just one play through which is nice to see both sides of evil for once.
