Set in a time before the original game, players take the role of a new
young Overlord. As he revels in command of the Minions, our trainee
tyrant will be able to take his growing pains out on the local fairy
tale inhabitants as he protects his castle and lands. Connecting players
to the game world in three dimensions, the use of the Wii Remote gives
unprecedented control over the minions. For example, individual Minions
can be plucked from the horde, held by the neck and then, by vigorously
shaking the Wii Remote, throttled to imbue him with some Overlordly
power and turn him into a manic minion missile. With a now-explosive
body, the insane little critter can be guided into enemies with
hilarious, if rather fatal, consequences.
Feature
Seize the Power: Donning the armour
of the Overlord, players become commander-in-chief of a fighting,
thieving and pillaging horde of crazed minions (with hundreds more
waiting in reserve) – a force quite unlike any other. Send out your
minions to crush rock giants, gnomes, halflings, elves, dwarves,
peasants and more. Become a new Overlord, conquer realms and grow your
castle from dilapidated ruins to glorious expression of your absolute
power
Pillage and destroy with the Wii Remote: Controlling the
minions is slick and devastating, requiring a flick of the Wii Remote to
send the raucous rabble into battle. Whether you’re swishing the remote
to sweep the horde into battle or pointing it to direct magic spells
and fireballs at enemies, the Wii Remote becomes the perfect extension
of the Overlord's despotic will
Throttle Your Minions: Individual Minions can be plucked from
the horde, held by the neck and then, by vigorously shaking the Wii
Remote, throttled! This stirs up the volatile lifeforce within them and
they become a manic minion missile. With a now-explosive body, the
insane little critter can be guided into enemies with hilarious, if
rather fatal, consequences for both parties
A twisted fairy tale: With a rich, tongue-in-cheek story
written by award-winning games author Rhianna Pratchett, this exclusive
Overlord adventure for Wii tells a new and twisted fairy tale. The lead
character is in a Cinderella scenario with his elder and rather
unpleasant brother and sister. He is the forgotten child while his
father is away, and his wicked twin siblings are plotting to take over
the kingdom with their own perverse alliances with elves and dwarves.
The story game also introduces wicked witches, gingerbread men and Lil’
Red Riding Hood, the seeming sweet girl with a lupine side to her
personality.
Meet the Minions: The Brown Minions are the fighters and the
strongest minions in general combat. Red Minions are fire throwers and
act like archers by hurling blazing fireballs as a long range attack.
Green Minions are the Assassins and love to use stealth attacks. Blue
Minions are the smartest of the minions and have healing powers and can
resurrect their fallen minion comrades and bring them back into the
fight
