Overlord is a great game, one of the ones I grew up on. While I can't say it's the first real time strategy ever made, it's the first one I ever played. I say it's an rts, but it bears little resemblance to what we expect an rts to look like today.

If you don't have the instruction manual trying to pick up this game would be a difficult and unintuitive experience, so I made this little guide.

Here's the timecodes for each subject, in case you're trying to play and get stuck at something:

0:20 building ships
0:31 Terraforming
1:08 Producing Energy
1:31 Producing food, minerals, and fuel
2:27 Cargo and interplanetary travel
3:20 Battlecruisers and troops
4:45 Taxes and how they impact population growth.
