I really wish this series got revived. It's been a decade since the last game went down like a sheep on fire. Honestly even if it got a proper reboot i wouldn't mind so long as it won't be forgotten.

It sucks that this game was discontinued after the second game in the series because this game is funny as hell but saddly sense EA own Codemasters they killed this franchise off too early another franchise ruined by EA No More Sheepies No More Minions but at least the game got ported to PC in a Complete version unlike OVerlord 2 Which is annoyingly missing its DLC T_T

Remember when games were fun and didn't feel like a second job? I pull overlord out of archives every few years just to remind myself what gaming use to be. Is it perfect, no, does it run 100% stable, most of the time, does it have top of the line graphics, nope, is it fun, absolutely.

Consider this a review for Overlord and Overlord: Raising Hell. As this game's DLC came out before it was properly implemented into steam, it is treated as a second game. A cult classic from the golden age of gaming, Overlord is effectively what many would call "evil pikmin". You control a growing horde of minions of 4 different types to take revenge and collect objects. We like objects. While the game is absolutely dated in many ways, and some of the visuals are hard to respect, and saving is kinda annoying and regaining health also annoying, I personally find it to be one of the better games I played both as a child and an adult. If you can't stand the older era of the emerging Xbox 360 titles, this game is not for you. But if you relish in that era like I did, and even carry a heavy dose of nostalgia, it is absolutely an incredible experience.

I still to this day maintain that this is a very good game. It has aged, it is dated in graphics and mechanics. I might be looking through rose tinted glasses but 10/10!
