About Overlord™: Raising Hell
✦ AI summary
Play as an all-powerful dark lord commanding a horde of mischievous minions to conquer a twisted fantasy world through destruction, theft, and pure tyranny. The expansion content lets you descend into supernatural abysses to reclaim fallen kingdoms while battling undead horrors, plus multiplayer modes add competitive pillaging across new maps.
How evil can you get?
Discover how corruptible you are in Overlord, the twisted fantasy action adventure where you can be evil (or really evil). In the game's seriously warped fantasy world, players will become the Overlord and get first-hand experience of how absolute power corrupts absolutely. You could be a regular run-of-the-mill Overlord. However, with incredible power at your disposal and a team of evil-minded impish critters, the Minions, on hand to do your bidding, how will you resist the temptation to be wonderfully despotic?!
Go deeper into the Overlord's twisted world as the single-player expansion content opens a series of hellish new levels, each a supernatural abyss for the game's five kingdoms: Mellow Hills, Evernight, Heaven's Peak, the Golden Halls and the Ruborian Desert. Access to each abyss is via a portal, which opens once a kingdom has been successfully conquered and the previous ruler banished to a personal hell within. However it's not just the fallen heroes that have been dragged into the abyss: the Overlord's newly loyal peasants have also been taken down into hell too.
With the undead denizens of each abyss on the attack and threatening the Overlord's reign above ground, there's only one thing for it: assemble your minion army, descend into each abyss and embark on a fresh wave of tyranny in order to return the serfs to their homelands, defeat the fallen heroes once and for all, and claim the throne of each kingdom's underworld.
INCLUDES THE OVERLORD CHALLENGE PACK:
Come and have a go if your Overlord's hard enough. All new pillaging fun with seven additional online multiplayer maps, including the competitive ‘Capture the Maiden’ map and ‘Protect Your Power’, where players must defend the Overlord's tower against waves of enemy attack.

THE OVERLORD
minion go boom
amazing game just as good as I remember it
Despite its age, it's still amazing
One of the worst gameplay ever. I am fully convinced that the people that were creating features never ever spoke to those who were implementing them. Handholding the minions doesn't work. Either half of them are ignoring your command, or they are stuck in an environment that you can barely see. And like a third of the game relies on it to work. Flagging minions also doesn't work. It was needed mainly in boss fights and big battles. But the game randomly decided how many minions will stay at the flag. The final fight is absolute garbage. Only at the very end will you find out that it will actually be a puzzle, and you are supposed to bring a good number of stashed minions to do it. The boss couldn't take even a quarter of my HP, but I couldn't fight him myself because of its design. Despite being called an RPG and action game, it's ultimately a puzzle. The DLC even more so. You will only have normal fights against enemies in hallways between puzzles. But that's it. I enjoyed all other elements of the game: music, visuals, story, theme, humor, and twist. But the gameplay ruined it. It certainly overstayed its welcome.
A few new areas added to the game, but not much else. Also the chores in the Heavens Peak Abyss are just terrible.
