Overlord

This expansion is a disappointing rip off, tedious and more annoying than Overlord itself.

In this expansion for Overlord, nothing new is added besides 5 new maps, all of which look the same besides different map layout and NPCs you encounter.

There are another 10~20+ hours to be added in this expansion alone which is good value - but due to it's tediousness, it may not be worth the money unless at a bargain price, much like Overlord itself.

Sometimes it takes 20~60 tries to move past certain areas and it doesn't help when annoying NPC chatter with an invisible timer are testing your sanity not to rage quit. This may take up to an hour, or a couple depending how you continuously try.

Due to this, I cannot stress how much I say this expansion IS ONLY a bargain bin buy.

However if you can get past these major issues, it may extend your game play if you enjoyed Overlord. Don't expect anything new or special, it's the same game play as Overlord.
