Amazing long adventure game with interesting gimmicks and bosses. Puzzle screens was pretty easy for me. Thanks Mattin for this great game!

Overlord is quite simply an amazing fangame. It boasts a sizeable explorable world in true metroidvania fashion, full with a wide range of differently themed areas, bosses and gimmicks, all of which felt designed in a very enjoyable way without ever getting too difficult or relying on precise platforming.
Exploring the world was great fun with my only real complaint towards it being I wish there was some form of speed mechanic such as a dash or a slide. This was moreso towards the start, but there'd be a fair few long stretches where I'd be walking without much interaction from any enemies or hazards, and it'd be nice to speed up these segments a little or just give me something to do when I'm backtracking through areas to look for secrets or extra stuff.
The bosses all felt extremely varied and fun to play, alongside some very sensible telegraphing of attacks. Even towards the end where the difficulty had started to take a step-up, I still felt like everything was reasonable and designed with care. Some enemy patterns got a pretty frustrating in the final couple stages, and one particular segment in the ice area felt overkill at times, but these were minor hiccups in what otherwise felt like a really solid difficulty curve.
Overlord does feature a secret in each stage which combine to give an extra boss and reward. I initially didn't plan on going for these but upon stumbling upon a couple of secrets, I ended up committing to them and had a great time. They all are themed around more retro games and have a more classic fangame feel to theme. My highlight of each was the elaborate trap Mattin placed in each one, which never failed to crack a smile.
Definitely one of my favourite adventure fangames. Even despite some small gripes such as a few slow and empty segments or some overly tricky patches, it's all around a fantastic production and a very impressive piece of work. Awesome stuff.

I'm giving this a perfect 10; partly because it's my favourite fangame, and partly because its the ideal example of what the community should be expecting from the fangames being developed and released.
This is essentially a massive metroidvania style game, with multiple different routes and environments. The path taken is fairly open; if you're having trouble with one section you can always leave it and come back to it later. There's also an experience system which increases your damage output, so you can actually grind a little if a boss is giving you trouble, though I find the balancing is mostly pretty good.
The aesthetic of the game is amazing. It clearly draws from many different inspirations, including non-platformer games like the 'Dark Souls' series. The soundtrack is great too, with the music used for the 'Crypt King' being a particular highlight. Combined with an immense number of items (some of which are optional), a challenging but not unbearable difficulty, really cool bosses (the secret boss in particular is fantastic), and an enormous amount of secret levels and content, and you essentially are getting a full fledged game of at least >10 hours of gameplay for free.
Negatives would include a lack of description for items (although MattinJ does give opportunities to discover their purpose from the environment), a final boss which isn't quite as epic as he could be given the grandness of the adventure, and a lack of satisfying narrative which is sad considering how simple it would have been to integrate a few more characters and dialogues. Despite that, this is a fangame par excellence and should be held up as a standard in the community for high quality Adventure games.
(As an aside, in case it isn't clear, the 'White Snake Ring' doubles your experience gain. The final secret item, by contrast, doesn't appear to do anything. I tested it quite a bit and I'm quite sure about that.)
