Evil Genius Finds a New Home on Facebook

Rebellion, the developer behind the Facebook iteration of Evil Genius, has taken (defunct studio) Elixer's classic game and translated it into something more appropriate for the social gamer. By running with a winning formula (being a jerk is fun; being a jerk on a grand level is grand fun) and streamlining play mechanics to their minamlist core, Rebellion has crafted a successful release with Evil Genius.

Evil Genius lets you pretend to be the head of a vast, villainous empire that profits on the despair of others and, fortunately enough, has been released just in time for the holidays! Now, instead of taking out your inherent cruelty on members of your immediate family around the dinner table, Facebook is letting you retreat to your computer to do harm unto virtual victims.
