Fun
I haven't played first Overlord. Part II is fun, fun and fun again. There some flaws with camera, but overall impression is great. You and your hordes of minions plunder forests, waters and cities and enjoy it. I never had so much fun being BAD.

Did I mention it is fun?

It's Good to be BAD! :D
Entertaining! If you like games with a "different" perspective compared to the norm, this is a fun game to have!

nothing new, but still fun
this latest version doesn't introduce much new to the franchise, but it's still fun to play the bad guy for a change and order around your minions to do you evil bidding. and definitely worth the discounted price Play Asia offers this at!

fun and enjoyable game
compare to the previous one, there's some improvement like additional of map and the minions are a bit smarter, and can operate machinery like catapults

if you haven't played the first one doesn't matter, because there's no story link between the two, you can just go for this one directly.

It's fun to be a bad guy!

Fun game, but more of the same.
If you like the first overlord, congratulations! this game is at least as fun as the last one. Maybe even a little bit more. In any case, if you haven´t play any "overlord" before this "overlord 2" should be your choice.
