Developed by Rebellion · Published by Rebellion
Play as an evil mastermind building a hidden island lair and a public-facing cover operation while working toward global domination. Criminal minions carry out your orders, while agents from the Forces of Justice attempt to infiltrate your base.
Design rooms and corridors, place equipment and traps, manage resources, and train minions for specialized roles. Recruit henchmen to support your operation, and respond to intruders by directing your defenses and activating the base alarm.
On the world map, send minions to carry out schemes and advance your plans. Main missions, side missions, and research unlock story progress, minion types, equipment, and improvements for your lair.
Players who enjoy the game often point to designing and expanding the lair, its colorful spy-fi presentation, and the appeal of running a cartoonish villain operation. Some also enjoy the characters, humor, and watching minions and traps in action. Recurring criticisms focus on long waits for research, training, and missions, with many reviewers finding the world-map objectives repetitive and the late game slow. Reviews also disagree on how effective traps and base defenses feel.
