Another fun little game. Probably not worth the buy, but definitely worthy of renting. The strength of the game is humor. Essentially, you are an "evil lord" and your wreck havoc on the world by sending out your minions (essentailly dim witted little imps). The game is somewhat puzzle based, ala zelda style, but also crash and smash mayhem. Definitely a fun game to play after after getting home from the bar as it doesn't take itself too seriously and its not the type of game you need any real skill to play.

Re: Overlord - Xbox360
is it an RPG ?
Re: Overlord - Xbox360
not in the immersive overall sense of building your character up. There is no leveling or anything. If you call any of the Zelda or Mario games RP, then yes it is.
To quote gamespot..."the game also plays like a real-time strategy game masquerading as a third-person action RPG."
