April 2025
Overlord was an awesome little game... though it did kinda feel like it ruined its own premise since the antagonists turned out to be MORE villainous than the protagonist.... so it didn't really feel like you were playing the bad guy. Maybe like.... 1980s cartoon villain vs 1990s dark & gritty villains? Well whatever... I love the humour. SHEEPIES!

Used to play this bad boy on the 360. It would be my comfort game while my parents fought in the background. I remember playing the demo for hours and finally got to go to my local Blockbuster and rent this one out and never return it. Beat the game like 3-4 times. This will be my 4-5th. Game is still as good as it used to be. Wish they would make a 3rd installment in the future.

Words can't describe how this game appeals to the reptilian brain of many fantasy lovers. The sheer amount of charisma and personality this game has needs to be studied. One could only hope for Overlord 3 by some miracle

I was very surprised by how entertaining Overlord was. It was a game that I played long ago on the Xbox 360 but never finished, so I picked it up on sale on Steam to try and get through it finally. I didn't expect that I would actually like it so much. Overlord hearkens back to the days of gaming full of plain old fun, with goofy characters, a simple story, and a lighthearted setting where you can enjoy the simple pleasures of being a magical evil villain. It's scratched an itch that I've had for a long time and if you're looking for a fun experience that doesn't ask too much of you in terms of skill or attention, then Overlord may pleasantly surprise you like it did me. Give it a shot.

This is another great game from my childhood and replaying it as an adult, I still think it's amazing. It's funny and entertaining, and absolutely worth playing.
