There are four different geniuses you can choose from, but the basic concept is the same: you set about building a hidden underground lair, and from there you begin launching a campaign of evil across the globe. It wasn’t broken - so it hasn’t been fixed.įor the completely uninitiated, Evil Genius 2 is a strategy and management simulation game that places you in the shoes of the titular Evil Genius. Evil Genius 2 is to its direct predecessor as Two Point Hospital is to the classic Theme Hospital - a revival that keeps everything from the original intact, with modern trappings only used to streamline and improve the experience rather than overhaul it. There’s nothing wrong with being an interactive, safe sequel - especially when the game you’re following up on is now well over fifteen years old. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Evil Genius 2 is the latter - and it’s great. On the other, you could simply bring what made the original beloved up-to-date with modern standards and conventions. On one hand, you can take the time passed as an opportunity to take that franchise off in bold new directions. The way I see it, when you’re making a sequel to something that came out a very long time ago, you can go one of two ways.
Evil Genius was a cult classic for a reason - and so its sequel plays it safe to deliver a familiar but very fun belated follow-up.
