    Evil Genius 2 is a satirical spy-fi lair builder, where players take control of an Evil Genius and set their plans for world domination in motion. When it feels this good to be bad, the Forces of Justice don’t stand a chance!
    Build your own unique evil lair and cover operation, Train a force of criminal minions, Defend your Lair from the Forces of Justice, and Dominate the world with a Doomsday Device in this direct sequel to the 2004 cult classic!
    Every villain needs an island lair, so pick your paradise and put your own sinister stamp on it! Shape the internal structure of your hazardous hideaway to fit your play-style, and construct wonderfully wicked devices for your minions to put to use.
    Competence isn’t going to cut it when you’re running an evil operation. As you expand and train your minion workforce, you can create new specialists to help further your evil plans! Need something a little more…intimidating? Recruit powerful Henchmen that complement your play style; every mastermind needs a right hand…or several, in fact!
    The Forces of Justice are annoyingly punctual, so supplement your brute force by researching and developing a series of trap networks! Send those do-gooders spinning with a Pinball Bumper, or put the chomp on them with the Venus Spy-Trap. While one trap is good, more is…evil-er. Combo your traps to banish intruders for good!
    Carry out evil schemes to further your plot to build a Doomsday Device and dominate the world! Sell the British Royal Family, Kidnap the Governor of Maine, and literally BAKE ALASKA. With hundreds of potential objectives, variety is the spice of strife.

    I know that in your livestreams you've expressed that you wished there was an easier visual cue to tell if a region is currently running a scheme, and though it may not be super obvious and they should definitely update it, the pulsing of the radio towers on the world stage screen is an indicator! It pulses faster/ more intensely if there is no scheme! Loving this game so far :)

    dealing with food, first aid and beds, I've started scattering little alcove type rooms in various places that I'll put in 3 or 4 beds, a food table, 1 first aid station and sometimes an incinerator. Keeps the minions from walking so far to deal with the stuff and oddly enough, it keeps morale up too. I still have the main barracks, lunch room, etc for the masses.

    Hey just a tip: the body burners are better used if you put them around your base, it makes from quicker disposal, at the very least always have one in your prison and always have one by where agents enter

  • @DHKold
    @DHKold 3 года назад

    FYI, later on, higher level agents will enter using the Helipad bridge.
    Of course, you can intercept those and have them escorted to the casino, but the problem is, when they get tired and wanna leave, guess where they need to go to leave? The helipad bridge, of course! So they will constently try to go through the base for leaving ^^
    As far, best solution I found was to make a corridor between the two "entries" with lots of traps. That way wherever they come from, they will likely go through it get demotivated ^^

    I started this game on console and was trying to find a great casino layout.
    Found this and was excited to see some ideas. However the design DOES NOT force agents to lose their resolve on their own.
    You can see at 4:13 you forcefully placed distract on each agents. Now by doing this is doesn’t matter where they go. You can have a single corridor straight to the entrance to your lair door and they will still lose resolve.
    Now if you made a CASINO where you don’t have to force them to be distracted than please let me know. Other than that I like that layout of your casino. Just disappointed that I still have to force the distraction

  • @dasirrlicht5415

    Lockers in the corridors always made me think of this american highschool movies, and that is just not the genre my evil lair aims for. It is however a good option to cut dead space... Just remember extinguishers are important.

    That trick with lvl 3 locks is not a rule. most of the time agent will take the shortest route to your sanctum. with investigators is like 50/50 but soldiers will always take the shortest route to the your evil genius. What bothers me is that there is no 100% guranteed ways to deliver your minions in rooms via "one way" tunnels. Agents always finds those unguarded passages. I did noticed however that all agents will prefer to walk through wide corridors (4 square wide) rather than narrow (2 square wide) ones. So use those narrow corridors to lower the chances to get your minion caught in crossfire or traps set of by agents.

  • @martinreinders6870
    @martinreinders6870 3 года назад

    You can place a 4x1 corridor with door instead of the room you've planned. Corridors are a bit cheaper (good for the first hours, not when the money is not a problem anymore 😂).
    Also, when I expand rooms, like your barracks, I would probably build and place new items before moving existing ones.
    Good luck with X!

  • @acnine-ball8976
    @acnine-ball8976 3 года назад

    Certainly a lot nicer than my casino, but I wonder if it doesn't have trouble getting minions out to fight on the floor when necessary. More than once, I've had soldiers or those dang crime bosses show up and just start everybody, so I want the guard post close and the approaches clean. I still have a maze, but it's made of corridors that lead nowhere off to the sides and filled with doors on level 3.
