Evil Genius — это стратегическая игра, где игрок берет на себя роль злодея, стремящегося к мировому господству. Цель — построить секретную базу, тренировать приспешников и разработать коварные планы. Игрок управляет ресурсами, строит комнаты, занимается исследованиями и защищает свою базу от агентов сил добра. Ключевая механика — строительство и управление базой, включающее планирование помещений, размещение ловушек и управление персоналом. Развитие базы позволяет разблокировать новые технологии и возможности для осуществления злодейских замыслов. На глобальной карте игрок отправляет приспешников для выполнения различных миссий, таких как кража артефактов или распространение влияния. Успешное выполнение миссий приносит ресурсы и продвигает игрока к его цели мирового господства, но может привлечь нежелательное внимание со стороны мировых сил.
