Evil Genius vs Machinarium
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.
Machinarium
Machinarium is an award-winning, puzzle-adventure game where you'll need to help Josef the robot rescue his equally robotic girlfriend Berta from the Black Cap Brotherhood gang. The game features plenty of logic-based puzzles along with a nice smattering of mini-games and adventure-based quests. The hand-drawn art style used in this game is perfectly apt for the overall theme of the game as well. Couple that with an epic soundtrack and you'll get a level of immersion that you might have never experienced before (or perhaps rarely) in a puzzle-adventure game. At the end, you'll actually feel for Josef himself.So, if you're up for a rather depressing and yet heartwarming puzzle-adventure game that will give your brain a run for its money, this is definitely the game to buy. If you get the chance, you should really try it.
