Evil Genius is a single player real-time strategy and simulation video game developed by Elixir Studios and published by Sierra Entertainment. The game is inspired by the spy thriller genre (notably the James Bond film series). Similarly to Dungeon Keeper, the game turns the traditional plotline on its head, with the player acting as the villain, evading the comically stereotyped forces of justice. Gameplay revolves around the player building an island fortress and achieving clichéd world domination.
Evil Genius focuses on building an island lair and the management of minions that are employed by the Evil Genius, allowing the player to progress through the main storyline with achieving world domination as the end goal of the game. Although not explicitly stated the use of historic regions (the Eastern Block) and events (such as the Cuban Missile Crisis) within the game suggest that it is set in the 1960s and 70s and that the game is progressing through an alternate timeline. Furthermore the styling of the game, which is reminiscent of 1960s Atomic Age designs also suggest a 1960s-1970s setting. The player is represented in game as one of three selectable evil geniuses: Maximilian, Alexis or Shen Yu.
