Oh, you know you’ve always wanted to be the mad scientist in the movies. Come on… Who are you fooling? We don’t want to be the hero but the kook plotting the hero’s demise! That’s why you should be on the lookout for Nefarious: The Mad Scientist Game when it releases this month from Ascora Games!
From Ascora:
Your genius could have been such a boon to humanity. Your death ray had wonderful pest control applications, and your volcano activator was perfect for fighting global warming. But the fools at the institute, they wouldn’t listen. They called you mad! You built a monster to rend them limb from limb, which your minions assured you was the very worst way to be rended.
When it became clear that the only hope for the world was your own benign leadership, you took control of TV to announce this fact. But your broadcast was interrupted by someone else taking control of TV, announcing his own plan for world dominion; and then that broadcast was interrupted by yet another interloper. So. Competition. Well the world will never be as scared of these upstarts as it will be of you.
Archimedes once said, “Give me along enough lever and a place to stand, and I will move the world.” You will be the most terrifying lever the world has ever seen.
You’re a brilliant scientist, and ok, you may be a little mad. But who isn’t a bit frustrated these days? At least you’re channeling your anger in a positive direction: inventing incredible devices to advance your goal of taking over the world. Plutonium, secret lairs, and minion insurance are expensive, though, so you’ll have to research, work, and even speculate on what your enemies will do in order to raise the funds to fulfill your dastardly plans.
Nefarious: The Mad Scientist Game is a quick playing game for 2-6 players where the players race to build inventions like a freeze ray, cloaking device, or robotic pet, before their opponents can. Your strategies to get the money to build your creations will have to vary, though, as each time you play, Nefarious will have a different environment thanks to its fiendishly clever twists.
