http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/142648b2139402156.jpgOverlord is an interesting game. In Overlord you take control of little hords of little things called minions that will fight for you. Yes you may be able to fight on your own but it's much easier to fight with your minons. In game there are four diffrent types of minions, brown, red, green, and blue, all having diffrent powers, other than the brown which is just a fighter. The red are fire resistent and can throw fireballs. The green can absorb gasses to clear your path and also have an abilty to jump on enemies backs and do extra damage. Finally the blues can swim and revive other minions.http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/142648b21acc58ebd.jpgNow for the overlord. He can fight to. You can upgrade him with new armor and weapons once you find a smelter. The more smelters you , the better your armor is, although there are only three in the game. The overlord can also have magic that either harms your enemies or helps your minions. Throughout the game there are diffrent bosses. Some main and some minor. The whole point of the game os to kill each races leader. Hobbit, Elf, Dwarf, Human and I think Wizard. Each one has a diffrent fighting tactic. The minor ones are like a giant harpy and a giant snake but nothin big.http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/142648b21fe1744a8.jpg
Lastly another point in the game is whether or not your good or evil. moastly your suppost to be evil but in some parta you have the choice to be good or evil.

Graphics: 7/10, there good but not great. There is room for improvement.

Gameplay: 6/10: Not very interesting, also it's too hard in the beggining I think. Also the controlls are also ok, they could use work.

Storyline: 4/10: The story line is just like all the others. An old ruler coming back and trying to rule the world with just a bit of a twist.

Overall: 6/10: It's ok. Hoping the next game is going to be better.http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/142648b2249340d60.jpg
