Petition updateProtect the Lair: Bring Personal Bodyguards Back to Evil Genius 2From Evil Genius to Evil Genius 2: Why Did the Bodyguards Vanish?

In the original Evil Genius, bodyguards were indispensable—top-tier minions who stood by the Genius no matter what, immune to stat decay, and able to access the most secure zones. They weren’t just strong—they were symbolic of power, trust, and gameplay balance.

Then Evil Genius 2 dropped... and they disappeared.

No automatic protection. No elite defense. Just regular minions left to deal with the chaos. The removal of bodyguards stripped away a critical mechanic and dulled the legacy of what made the first game so iconic.

We’re not just nostalgic—we’re practical. Bodyguards weren’t decorative; they were game-changers. If we want Evil Genius 2 to live up to its predecessor, the bodyguards need to return.

📣 Share this petition with fellow masterminds, forums, and fans. Let’s rally to bring back the brilliance—and the bruisers.
