Anno 2205 vs Evil Genius
Anno 2205
Anno 2205 is, in some way, a "grand simulation" game and a city-builder that is set in the far future where Earth has already been developed to its maximum capacity and it's time to take to the stars. However, this game is no space exploration sim. Instead, you'll still be focusing much of your development effort on Earth but this time around, you'll get to expand your influence to the moon; to mine the resources there and bring it back to Earth. The gameplay is also further enhanced with a unique Session mode where you can play on multiple locations and then connect all of these regions together. And of course, the map of the region you can play in is a lot larger (five times, to be exact) than the previous game.However, many fans of the game have pointed out that the combat system is rather boring in this game. Though admittedly, the combat in other Anno games isn't particularly exciting either. It's just something that's necessary.
That said, the gameplay might still be interesting enough for you to buy the game, maybe at a discounted price, but for some, the game might not be comparable to any of the other Anno titles. It's up to you to decide which camp you fall into.
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.
