Evil Genius vs Spore
Evil Genius
Evil Genius is a fun simulation game that allows you to step into the shoes of an up-and-coming super villain. From building your super secret evil lair to recruiting your henchmen to carry out your nefarious plans, if you're looking to dominate the world in a hilariously cartoonish fashion, this game has it all! You can even kidnap government agents to test your "interrogation" toys on, and plant traps and other nasty surprises for anyone who is foolish enough to try to breach your lair. Of course, you'll need to amass a huge group of minions who will spread chaos around the globe in your name to increase your notoriety and power.Evil Genius is the only simulation game that lets you rule the world as a ruthless, calculative and perhaps somewhat maniacal super-villain with the likes of Gru from the Despicable Me movie series. It has a nice touch of humor too, making the game feels rather lighthearted despite the fact that you're ruining the lives of the virtual people who happen to share the same virtual world as your character. So, if you're feeling a bit mischievous today, you might want to check this game out.
Spore
Spore is a pretty unique and addictively fun god-mode-like sandbox game where you get to create a whole new world and fill it with your living creations. As a "god", you can play around with the game's five evolutionary stages, from Cell to Space, and grow an entire space-faring civilization from its very simple beginnings as a single-cell organism. Of course, to develop a civlization, you'll need plenty of tools to help them along and Spore gives all of that to you in an easy-to-use format. You can literally customize everything you like in the game ranging from vehicles that your creations will drive or even buildings that your organisms will live in.Although Spore is essentially a single player game - after all, there can only be one almighty god... and that's you! - the world you've created is shared with other players in the game, so your creations can actually explore new planets and maybe even bump into a hostile race which will force them to make the preparations needed to go to war.
Overall, Spore is an amazingly detailed, civilization-building, sandbox game that allows you to micromanange almost everything if you choose to do so, or you could lay down the groundwork and let things unfold by themselves. Best yet, there is no limit as to how many worlds you can create, so unleash your creativity and your godly powers and develop the ultimate civilization today!
