Overlord

An action-adventure with a dark sense of humour, in which you play a resurrected evil lord who commands hordes of gremlin-like minions. You send them to smash, steal and fight while working through levels to defeat seven corrupt heroes, with choices that push you toward evil. Is it your kind of game?
