Product Overview
Overlor II is the sequel to the hit warped fantasy action adventure that had players being delightfully despotic. In Overlord II, a new Overlord and a more powerful army of Minions take on the Glorious Empire, an advanced Romanesque nation, in a truly epic, yet familiarly warped, adventure. As the Glorious Empire conquers kingdoms and destroys any sign of magic it finds, it¿s time to go Minion Maximus with a rousing cry of ¿Veni, Vidi, Vici¿ and send in the horde. The Minions return smarter, deadlier (and funnier) and are ready to fight in large scale battles that will see their wild pack mentality squaring up to the organised legions of the Glorious Empire. As ever, they¿ll do anything and everything the Overlord commands of them, especially now that they can run ravage and wreck buildings and scenery. They¿ve also learnt to ride: In Overlord II, Minions will be able to mount up and ride wolves and other magical creatures around the landscape and take them into battle, making our band of merry fighters faster and fiercer than ever before

Great Game – Andrew – California, USA
I enjoyed the first one, but still failed to want to spend [...] on it’s sequel, so I waited until it went to [...]… In my opinion this game should never be more then [...], unless they are gonna add extra perks… Still I rather enjoy going around causing terror, being bad or super bad…

Worse than the first. – Rick Dooley Sr. –
I was really looking forward to this game after falling in love with the first one. Wow ! What a disappointment. The controls in the first game were quirky but workable with a little practice , the controls in this one are horrific the Overlord is glued to the direction of the minions leading to some frustrating fights. The minions are totally stupid and won’t pick up dropped items no matter how many times you direct them to it , but they don’t seem to mind drowning themselves en mass like lemmings. The underground castle , what’s the point of having a bad ass castle if it’s where no one can see it? Riding the wolves gimmick is ok when it works, when it doesn’t, well good luck.
Overlord 2 is a frustrating mess , stick to the original . This is a good example of a company rushing out a game to make a buck on the previous games charm , only to ruin the brand.

Annoyingly Repetitive – Matthew T. Bruckner – Boulder, CO USA
This game changes very little throughout its duration. By far the best part are the maniacal comments from your minions. The main drawbacks are its repetitive game play and its lack of decent map (getting lost for hours because I didn’t see the turn). Amusing for a little while, but don’t expect this game to leave you on the edge of your seat.
