Evil Genius! Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I just played the demo for this game. It's great. It's every cheesey spy movie from the 60s and 70s you ever wanted to play. You even get to gloat at the heroes if you capture them.

"I shuposhe you ekshpect me to tawk."

"No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die."



The game itself is a lot like Dungeon Master.

Got spare money?

The game got boring on the long run. Most unfortunate, it had a lot of potential and was very atmispheric. It's just I thought the whole point in being an Evil Genius was that your lackeys would do things for you instead of you having to micromanage every detail... and the agents getting through when your minions walk through the doors is just stupid, never mind the traps that kill minions and agents alike. I think it's just broken that way, artificial difficulty.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

There are also many broken things in the game besdies what Kassi mentioned. The last game I played I had 99 minions and never captured the maid, and had so much gold that I had to stop (agents do not come on the main map until you capture the maid) because my vault was full.

I have that game saved, 4M in gold and just starting, but have not gone back to it....tooo many other games to play right now.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

i think it just needs some tlc(and patching) to garner a bit of word of mouth support. It does have potential, in an austin powers kinda way.
Still as others have said - too many other games to play at the momment(although most of mine are old uns).
Still its nice to see something a little different from the norm, that and its humour might be enough to make me go and buy it sometime?
