Gaming News - August 2004
Los Angeles, CA (August 30, 2004) - Vivendi Universal Games announced
today that a demo for Evil Genius is now available. The demo can be downloaded

ftp://ftp.sierra.com/pub/vug/evil_genius/demos/evilgenius_demo_en.exe. Evil
Genius will ship to retail stores in the United States on September 28th.
From VU Games:
The Evil Genius demo is an exciting introduction to Elixir Studios' world
domination simulation. All of the basic principles of being an evil megalomaniac
are available to be mastered. Gamers can build a secure underground base
complete with armories, barracks, and all-important freezer rooms. They’ll train
an awesome army of brutal mercenaries armed to the teeth and prepare to repel
the Forces of Justice who've caught wind of their whereabouts. They’ll extract
information about their plans by capturing and interrogating prisoners, and use
their powerful henchmen to defeat the martial arts legend and super agent, Jet
Chan, in a final chaotic showdown.
More information about Evil Genius can be found at the official website:

In Evil Genius gamers assume the role of a wicked mastermind bent on achieving
global domination through the construction of the ultimate doomsday device. A
tongue-in-cheek take on the 60's spy thriller genre, Evil Genius offers the
chance to be the villain and control a secret island fortress complete with
powerful (and strangely dressed) henchmen, mindlessly loyal minions and a wide
range of hilarious gizmos.
All the everyday tasks of the megalomaniac are available to experience as
players build a secret base, train minions, gain infamy and notoriety by
completing daring missions, toy with the forces of justice by setting clever
traps, torture captives with ingenious devices, and develop evil super weapons
to complete a nefarious master plan.
