Lording it up with our minions

While Overlord has some good ideas, its minor issues can be frustrating and time-consuming, and after a while the “puzzle solving” starts to feel a little repetitive. On top of that, the balancing could do with some tweaking, with some enemies too hard to defeat and some bosses too easy. However, playing as a character devoid of morals is still very appealing, and smashing up everything in sight does provide a massive dose of stress relief. Shame there weren’t any sharks with frickin’ laser beams on their heads though.
