Evil Genius Rises Again...On Facebook

I loved the base-building, henchman-humiliating fun of Evil Genius when it released for PC back in 2004. The good news is that the franchise is back, but the bad news is that it's just a Facebook game.

You can try the application for yourself here...but don't get your hopes too high. Despite sharing the name and some similar themes, it's a far cry from the fun of the original. Oh, well. I guess it's cool to see a new Evil Genius game, even if it doesn't fit perfectly into my sinister schemes.
