Following the Xbox 360 demo that was released last week comes the playable PC demo of Codemasters’ Overlord.

In the demo players get to become the Overlord, assemble a team of minions and head over to The Mellow Hills for some destruction. You’ll have to use the minions to gather life-force from the local sheep and use this to grow your minion horde. There are also some peasants to intimidate and an encounter with a Guard Troll.

Also available is the Desktop Minion e-toy, a little application which will install a minion companion on your computer. Later this week Codemasters will launch the Rate My Evil interactive leaderboard. Users will be able to rank a series of famous people and characters in order of unpleasantness, and upload photos of friends and family.

You’ll find all this over on Codemasters.com.
