Play it if you…
Good fit- Management-simulation players who prefer running a laboratory to managing a conventional business.
- Strategy players interested in disease design rather than military units and battlefield tactics.
- Players who enjoy staffing and research systems more than puzzle-solving or character-focused role-playing.
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a combat-focused game; the described activity centers on lab operations, research, disease development, and sales.

Our take on Evil Labs
Disease creation uses selections from 73 options, followed by deployment to one of six locations. The lab's cure sales connect that disease-development process to the facility-management loop.
What is Evil Labs?
Build and upgrade a laboratory with over 30 kinds of buildings, including research spaces, staff rooms, security, offices, generators, and factories.
Hire workers for research, medicine production, or defense. Staff gain experience through their work and can be trained into classes such as scientists, engineers, and keepers. Research is divided among six technology trees containing over 100 technologies, which unlock buildings, upgrades, and disease options. Create diseases by selecting from 73 choices across pathogens, contagion methods, symptoms, and extras, then spread one to a chosen location among six. The central loop combines laboratory management, disease development, and selling cures to infected populations. Later, diseases can be used to threaten governments for money.
