ive had a pretty good time with Overlord so far (im about 15 hours in). i first heard about it a little over a year before it was released, and i had really been looking forward to this one. while it is a good game, and there isnt much selection for these types on the 360, it is kind of a let down for me. if only for the fact that i was hoping for a darker more mature, violent game than it’s turned out to be. i was also hoping for a slightly deeper experience as well (huge Oblivion fun) but its ok, because this game is very entertaining, between the villagers cowering in fear before you, to you minions getting drunk and “relieving themselves” all over the place. thats still priceless.as most people have already said, this sort of plays like a mix of Fable (Xbox) and Pikmin (GC). you control the overlord with the left stick, and you can use the right stick to navigate your minions to various locations.the one thing i really didnt like about this game is the lack of any sort of in game map. there’s a little one that comes with the game, but its pretty much useless. you can waste so much time trying to find your way around places, and you often end up walking in big circles trying to find your way around.all in all, this game was a great buy, and i would encourage anyone into fantasy games, and anyone just looking for something a little different to check this one out.
Took forever to ship. But worth the price. Brand new copy.
Saying this is a mix of Dungeon Keeper and Pikmon(sp??) was right on the money. You can be a good little Overlord and get a dark mistress to be your bride or have a real challenge and be a good savior and have a nice good woman at your side.Yes, I as well as everyone else that has played this did not fight against their nature and became an evil Overlord with all of the killing and just unruly behavior it implies. Which is fun, just letting your minions out on their own doing what they will with whatever they find.You can try to be a good overlord helping the peasants, rescuing them, and helping out with various quests. Then after several good deeds you make a mistake and burn down the sacred elf forest by bringing a bunch of fireball slinging minions without thinking one of them may catch everything on fire.Now the gloves come off as everywhere you go someone calls you names which is barely a spark next to the open barrel of gasoline to which you respond with a ‘lesson’ to him. And his house, his neighbor’s house and the whole town since you are on a roll. The auto-save kicks in and now you are a mass murdering evil overlord.In this game, being evil is fun.
While the commercials make Overlord seem like a Dungeon Keeper game – a series I *adored* – in actual gameplay, this is pretty much Pikmin with an attitude. This can be great or annoying depending on your point of view.You are playing a dark lord who looks very suspiciously like Sauron from the Lord of the Rings series. Your advisor and minions are straight from Gremlins, with perhaps a bit of Yoda thrown in for good measure. When you head out on your first world to conquer, you run into hobbits, who live in little holes with round doors, in a village named … “Spree”. Yes, the game goes out of its way to be cute and poke fun at all fantasy stories.Just like in Dungeon Keeper, you are in control of a swarm of mindless but generally loyal lackeys. You start with just the basic grunts, but as you progress you can unlock a healthy variety of creature types.Most of your tasks are typical – get 10 minions to push aside a blockade, send your minions in to raze a village, and so on. While you are praised for being “evil”, you’re also warned to allow at least some innocents to survive so they provide workers for your empire. Meanwhile, back at the Evil Castle, your progress means that they fix up the place so it is worthy of being your home.I do have to admit the little minions are quite cute. If you raid a pumpkin patch, a few of them will grab pumpkins and stick them on their heads. As they find weapons and armor, they’ll equip them, so each minion becomes unique. If you need heal.
The game is a lot of fun! Sometimes the controls are a little fiddly and your character spends a lot of time running around, but all in all, it’s a great time. I do love playing it.
Pretty fun game. My kid has an unreasonable love for it as far as I can tell but I only think it’s okay. I do enjoy the minions, they are quite entertaining. But the gameplay…there is a LOT of hunting around for various places and things and it gets tiresome. I’m not sure I ever got around to beating the 2nd boss because I was having so much trouble finding those nodes in the forest. The graphics aren’t great and sometimes it’s pretty unclear where you can and cannot go, or what you can interact with vs. what you can’t. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because my kiddo is just gaga over this game, personally I would only give it a 3 star rating.
I really liked this game. Overall it was very entertaining and well worth $20. There were some funny parts but some of the repetitive sayings could get annoying. The peasants would say the same thing every time you walked past them and the first time I was very tempted to go evil and kill them to make them be quiet.The main thing that bothered me was the lack of some type of map or even something telling me what direction I was walking. A few times a peasant would tell me something was going on to the east and I had no idea which way that was. It would also be nice to have a map that told the location of minions that were taking an object to one of the way points. They didn’t always go to the closest one and when they didn’t come back after a few minutes I would have to go find them. I also ended up wandering in circles several times and had to take the way point back to the tower so I could figure out where I was (assuming I could find a way point).There were some glitches with the camera that always seemed to show up when I was fighting a large group of enemies. While attacking zombies I sent my guys out in several directions and my camera angle was swinging everywhere rather than following in the direction that the overlord was pointed. The camera also decided part way through the game to go to a bird’s eye view and it took me a lot of fidgeting with the controls to get it back to where it was originally. I even resorted to reading the directions and it didn’t cover how to.
I finally decided to order Overlord for the 360 on retrolio for 6 dollars. I wasn’t sure what to expect, having never really heard of it prior.It came, I popped it in and well, I never looked back. I’ve been playing it almost exclusively for the past 4 days now and I am blown away by how much of a wonderful game this is.As the game opens you (the overlord) is being woken up from a long slumber by some wicked little gremlins you’ll later refer to as “minions”. These creatures explain some of what happened to you, and start equipping you in Overlord armor, and after some more dialogue and a little training, you begin your quest.As The Overlord, your goal is to be evil. Now that can mean a little evil, or extremely evil, it’s up to you, and your choices throughout the game WILL have an impact on the story.You control minions of different types, like red minions specialize in fire, for example. All in all there’s brown, green, red, and blues you’ll be controlling. You can make your minions fight for you, pillage and loot villages, and basically anything else, like opening doors and gates, etc.In this sense, the game takes on an RTS quality, because you’ll have to be strategic with your minions to solve puzzles and beat bosses. At other times though, it’s an RPG the likes of Fable.The graphics don’t do a whole lot to show true next-gen visuals, but having said that the graphics are still nice and the world is beautiful to look at.Now this game, although you play an evil character, i.
Let me get something straight. I liked this game. A LOT. I think its tons of fun once you get all the controls down and then figure out the different tactics which each minion. It is a fun mix between combat and puzzle solving, something few games actually achieve. My only dislike was the story. Not that it wasn’t funny or entertaining but it didn’t really give me much room in the way of deciding what type of villain I would be. Great game. however.
Xbox 360 game plays very well.

This is the only game i’ve played where my girlfriend stole the controller and didn’t give it back. This is no doubt a wonderful game. It has some simple controls that allow you to sit back and watch your little minions sack and pillage the local peasants and their goods. There are 4 different types of goblin like minions to do your bidding and each one has a different ability. Your main character has some basic attacks and a few spells but its the army you control that really steal the show here. It has some well written dialogue that is humorous and witty at times. The graphics are colorful and pleasing to the eye. I don’t have really anything negative to say about this game except that it appeals to the female gender so i don’t get to play it as much as i want to. But seriously it worth experiencing for yourself. Hurry up and finish it so you can pre-order Overlord 2!

I’m not terribly far into the game.. I’ve unlocked three classes of minions so far and a few spells, but I can say that the game is fun. I’ve heard that people think the game is like Fable… and I have no idea where they’re getting that from.The controls for moving your character are a bit wonky, but you have to play the game to understand why that is. The thing that keeps the game moving is the comedy. Lots of great stuff like having your minions kill halflings (with homes that look exactly like Hobbot holes) and then wearing their hair and faces around… ok, it’s sick humor, but still good.The game is a bit simplistic, but I’m not so sure that’s bad.

This game is extremely entertaining. Which, above all else, is exactly what a video game is supposed to be. The other reviewers are correct, the game is flawed, as most games with a production budget, a shipping deadline, and a market department are. It was not shipped before it was READY, but it was shipped before it was POLISHED.First, the PROS:1.) The game is funny2.) The minions are adorable (love the random hats!)3.) The graphics are great4.) The puzzles are fairly balanced (although those freaking sea serpent battles I could have done without!)5.) You do not have to be truly evil! I was worried about this. But, a’la KOTOR, and Fable, and Jade Empire, etc. there is a path of “lesser evil” available in this game, which is basically like the character alignment of “chaotic good” in Dungeons and Dragons. In other words, you can play as a “Hero” who doesn’t follow the rules. (You can also play as a right evil bastard, if you so choose)6.) The game has a good story, and moves at a good pace, and even has a surprise twist near the end which I wasn’t expecting.7.) Production values are very nice: very good voice acting, very good music, sound effects, graphics, etc.Now the CONS:1.) No in-game map is INEXCUSABLE. I have a very good memory, and even I got turned around/lost occasionally. Without an in-game map, exploration, and finding things takes way more time than it should, and you can never be truly sure you have found everything. An in-game map in a game with explo.

Awesome game. The LotR satire is the best I’ve seen.

I really, really can’t overstate how much I enjoy this game. Perfections and imperfections all, I love this thing for it’s style, for it’s humor, for it’s constant and unnapologetic stroking of my ego. It appeals to me personally on so many levels I wouldn’t know where to begin.Which should be the first sign that it ain’t for everyone.Overlord is, at it’s heart, a fast-paced puzzle game. Yes there’s action and destruction and the slaying of creatures both creepy and cute. But real progress is made by careful placement of your four types of minions and patient exploitation of their strengths and weaknesses. Use the wrong kind at the wrong time? Yup, they’re all dead: and it’s amazing how naked and exposed your metal-clad, otherwise imposing self feels once that layer of Minions is removed between you and the enemy. You certainly can attempt a run’n’gun approach, throwing your critters at the bad guys and swinging your sword for all it’s worth but you and your Minions are surprisingly frail and the game seems to reward a more patient approach, despite the chaotic nature of the visuals.The game is far from from perfect: the Overlord moves a bit like an old Buick and more than twice I had Minions stuck on rocks and in other pieces of the environment. It’s got it’s fare share of bugs and poor animations (kick a villager and count down how long it takes him to actually fall, funny stuff) and the cut scenes look like they were thrown together in the eleventh hour with the re.

I don’t have much time to write this, so this will be short…I heard about this game some months ago and was immmediately put off when it was compared to Pikmin. While Overlord does have a Pikmin influence in that you have minions you can control to do various tasks, the similarities pretty much stop there.First off, this game isn’t “cutesy” like Pikmin is. This game is a full-on dark fantasy game full of demons, dark magic and a medieval setting. It definitely borrows a bit from The Lord Of The Rings when it comes to style, right down to “halflings” that live in little holes in the side of hills.The gameplay takes the Pikmin style of gameplay and builds on it. You can control numerous types of minions, and they themselves can be upgraded with sworda and armor they find themselves when you send them out to smash crates, treasure chests, pots and other things. They auto-equip them too, so you don’t have to waste time maintaining each minion. I’m still early in the game, but if you use a bit of strategy, at least early on you can let your minions do almost all of the fighting. I’m sure that’ll change as I get farther and the game gets harder. Where the game really starts to stray from Pikmin is that Overlord is just as much a true RPG and dungeon crawler as it is a “god game”. You’ll traverse lush forests, meet many characters, and battle your way through dungeons as you become more powerful and your minions become more numerous.The game also takes into account how evil your d.
