How it feels
You play a cartoon supervillain, juggling a secret lair, minions, and global schemes with a light, satirical touch.

What players say
Players love the campy tone and James Bond parody, but the game is held back by bugs and dated design. The unofficial patch is considered essential, and some find the difficulty curve punishing with heat rising too fast.
