Oct. 2025

Got the Deluxe Edition for $6 (cad) during a steam sale and i put in 40 hours within 3 days and it's real fun and worth the money. There are very few issues I have that can be fixed in a small update, which I doubt would happen since the last update was in 2022. [*]If objects are destroyed you have to manually replace them, there is a toggle to have it auto replace but you'd have to press it (enable it) for every single item. The devs should've made it so that it'll be on by default or even add a on/off option in the settings. [*]Denuvo. Just remove it at this point, it's been 4 years since release and I want to mod this SINGLEPLAYER game. [*]DLC achievements. From what I could tell is there are none.

"I accidentally turned one of my minions into solid gold after firing my doomsday device. To honor his memory I placed him in my office as a statue for others to behold at the commitment and dedication. Then I sold him for a pittance when I got bored of looking at that eye-sore. I'm soo evil." Best Evil mastermind simulator ever! But seriously, people were too harsh with this game. Its good, in fact, better than many ways compared to the original. Sure, there are some things i miss in the original, but the quality of life changes make it worth it. Moreover, visually the game is pleasing and optimized. I love the artistic direction. The flamboyant and stereotypical cold-war era spyfiction characters with cartoony proportions and accents. Gameplay-wise its fun to build and customize your lair in any way you want. Some people complain about the brutal difficulty late game, but really, if you plan your lair well, you can become almost nigh invincible in defense. Using different room pieces within other rooms by only replacing a few tiles, there is a whole lot of tricks that can help. Speaking of tricks, its fun to watch the enemy fumble up in the traps. I never get tired of the antics. I also love how my armed forces just rush to the enemy and then a whole firework of guns and explosions ensue while the tourists in the casino run off due to the fight spilling over. And the henchmen, there are a whole bunch of colorful characters to recruit (though the steps can be exhaustive). Granted, I bought the whole thing on discount (deluxe version) so I'm going to be slightly biased (that and I love 50s era spy themes). There are DLCs with extra equipments, henchmen, loot and missions. It does add to the flavor. All in all, I'm glad this was made and hope part 3 would be picked up by the same studio.

I truly don't understand why there are all of these negative reviews. The game is very enjoyable and relaxed, just as Evil Genius 1 was back in the day. Most of the negative reviews come from complaints about how much time it takes to do things, and I really think people are just not prepared for how long the game truly is. The fun of both of these games is slowly improving your base over time, but yeah a campaign will take you 40 hours to get through unless you speed run it. It really just depends on if the magic breaks for you early. If you enjoy it after 10 hours, and look forward to making more improvements and fixing your base up more, then keep playing. If, after 10 hours, you've had your fun but you want it to be over, then stop playing because the game won't get better for you. I really do recommend trying it though, at least to play it and cause chaos for a few hours. It's lots of fun.

A great game that missed out on an opportunity to satirize real life. For example, why can't you do what real evil geniuses do globally: - Dumb down the curriculum of public education in order to ensure that the plebeians will be obedient and efficient workers rather than individuals that question anything around them - Create various political entities that represent a spectrum of ideals that have been carefully manufactured, tribalize said ethoses, then pit the parties against each other while remaining in control of them all - Encourage the general public to support lose-lose situations and plans, whether it be: warfare, needless extra taxation, censorship, limiting rights and responsibilities, or consuming poison - Control thoughts and behaviour through all forms of media entities globally - Have people globally hate anyone and everyone around them except for the individuals that are truly responsible for their problems - Create issues, then profit off of them by offering solutions of my choosing and personal benefit (war, disease, resource depletion, etc.)

Honestly a bit overhated, its a pretty good sequel but the expectations where sky high.
