Game Idea

Detective fell when trying to solve a series of Murder. The case went silent after you died in the line of pursuit! The case went cold after you died and until it reignited with the killers return and a new detective took it on. Buddy cop film.


Overlord Choice of Games.
Setting: Techno-Fantasy!
You are Overlord.exe! Long ago you were a simple care-taker program. Now, you are reawakening in a world where the apocalypse has came and went. Can you bring order to a world that has long since lost all trace of the word? You are a 'Dungeon' or a care-taking facility basically.

Stats!
Your stat-line could BE the other character.

Last Necromancer - Necromantic Lord at one point. Overthrown? Tried to ascend? Got sealed away for x. When returned your magic is unkown. You use that power to try and rebuild your Kingdom? Or do you try to do something else. Very easy moral dilemma.

Butterfly effect? Flash out of your dungeon to see what ripples you cause.
Can tell the Hero's perspective?

Overlord 'force' sedentary but what you.
You have 'champions'
Arcs are sending them missions on missions. Play as Champions?


Overlord
Cruelty vs Merciful
Strength vs Finesse

Three secondary characters that act as lesser stats.
Ogre! Strength based.
Goblins! Swarm

Make it sort of like Samurai of Hyuga?
Give good band of support cast for main samurai?

What if you're an Overlord who simply stopped or when the Hero bested him the Hero chose to let him live. Now your trying to figure out what to do with yourself in a world passing you by.
