Overlord Reviews

Codemasters and Triumph Studios' Overlord continues to receive favorable review scores around the web. The first is at Cheat Code Central with an overall score of 4.5/5:
Its fresh take on the fantasy genre, excellent minion mechanics and morbid humor make for a gaming experience you won't soon forget. And if one of the game's flaws starts to get you down, just send a pack of brown minions-those are the really antsy ones-scurrying through a sunflower patch, and smile as they turn nature's beauty into a whirl of yellow confetti.

The second is at PALGN with an overall score of 7.0/10:
Despite its obvious shortcomings, it's difficult to overlook the game's clear enjoyment. Keep expectations low and you could find your 'guilty pleasure' title of the year.

And the third is at IC-Games with an overall score of 80%:
Overlord might be a short lived experience but nothing quite like it exists for the Xbox 360 right now. The gameplay is sound, the humour is all too apparent and we doubt you'll walk away unimpressed. It's just a shame there wasn't a little bit more going for it online.
