Product Details of Codemasters Overlord

Description

Controlling a mysterious figure that has inherited the legacy of the evil, long-dead Overlord, the player emerges, near death, from the ruins of the old Overlord's Dark Tower. Only the player's actions will determine if they will rise to become the Overlord; it's all down to how much of a tough guy they want to be in order to succeed...evil or really evil! Played out with plenty of black humour and dark irony, the game will immerse players in twisted parodies of classic fantasy scenarios and characters.

Overlord

Strengths: Very fun gameplay focusing on evil and dastardly deeds. Great graphics.

Weakness: No replay value. Controls are designed with a gamepad in mind.

This game thrusts the player into the role of Overlord, complete with minions to command. The gameplay focuses on forcing the minions to do your dirty work, whether it be pillaging farmland or slaughtering innocents.
