Overlord (2007)/Tower

Your tower consists of 5 sections, the first is the main room which contains your throne and the "tower heart". When standing at your throne you will notice 4 stairwells, these are only opened as you progress through the game and lead to the following locations;
 * Left near stairwell, leads to the Forge, opened once you have the first forge.
 * Left far stairwell, leads to the Practice Area, opened from the start of the game.
 * Right near stairwell, leads to the Upper Floor, opened once you have saved Rose.
 * Right far stairwell, leads to the Dungeon, opened once you have recovered the crane.

Practice Area
The first section you are allowed access too. Used to teach you the basic controls of the Overlord.

Dungeon
The dungeon is a good place to harvest evil energy to create more minions, either for the Forge or game progression. You can fight all the enemies you have killed within your current game. You can choose as many of each minion as your overlord can control, but you can not use mana to kill enemies.

Forge
Use to upgrade you helmet, armor and weapons. You will need both gold and minions to upgrade your preferred item. You can obtain more minions from fights in the Dungeon.

Armory
The armory allows you to go back to old weapons/armor once you have forged new items.

Steel Smelter
Found in the Mellow Hills. Steel is only used for upgrading items, not forging them. Total minions applicable to the relevant items;
 * 175 - Weapons
 * 325 - Armor
 * 675 - Helmet

Durium Smelter
Found in the Heaven's Peak. Durium is useful around the middle of the game, when 575 brown minions ups the Overlord's defense immeasurably but a properly done Steel Armor will let you weather most problems until you grab the Arcanium smelter. Total minions applicable to the relevant items;
 * 300 - Weapons
 * 575 - Armor
 * 1150 - Helmet

Arcanium Smelter
Found in the Golden Hills. You should spend the lifeforce and money to max out your Arcanium weapon (you only need one), armor and helmet for best results. Total minions applicable to the relevant items;

 * 1000 - Armor
 * 2000 - Helmet
