Overlord Game Guide & Walkthrough

Welcome to the unofficial game guide to Overlord. It contains detailed descriptions of all the quests awaiting the candidates to the title of the Lord of Darkness. Below, you shall find not only the step-by-step lead through all the quests ahead. Also, you'll find out where to look for the objects which you have to teleport to your tower. They will increase your life force and mana as you progress with your adventures. The guide also gives you detailed descriptions of possible tactics and techniques of defeating major enemies.

Locations' names are highlighted with green. You'll be able to teleport to most of them directly from your tower. Unfortunately, the game doesn't provide a map. Therefore, this guide is prepared as detailed solution to the game. Not only that it tells you exactly what to be done and achieved in particular quests, but also guides you through all the places you visit so you shouldn't get lost.

The game is rather a linear story and not often you have opportunity to go with one quest before completing another (or at least a part of it). It's because either some lands stay locked, or you need a particular kind of your minions which you shall find later on, or there's simply no point in wandering into dangerous places being unprepared for its perils. The sequence suggested is not the only possible, but following the order of events as presented will definitely help you avoiding unnecessary inconvenience.

Overlord is a game allowing you to become a truly black character. You've got two options: being evil or thoroughly evil. In fact, the differences are not significant and with very few exceptions quests remain the same. The following solution describes the first option as default. For the truly evil individuals, there is the chapter Tips for the Evilest. You'll find there tips for concrete tasks where you should take the evil decision and make evil deeds which shall make you the truly evilest of the evil.
