Chambers of Devious Design

Chambers of Devious Design is a tactical tile-placement game in which you construct evil lairs to impress an evil mastermind. Each room has its own unique effects and preferences for which rooms it sits beside, so finding the optimal placements gives you a tactical advantage and unlocks the full potential of your architecture.

But building an opulent lair is only one route to winning. Sometimes the goal is destroying your enemies, or simply being the last person still able to build. If an opponent makes the mistake of building too close, you can teach them a lesson by planting a room full of dynamite next to their control room, or firing a cannon at them instead. Passive perks and unique special abilities further sharpen your strategy and help secure a lead.

A campaign against the AI provides varied gameplay, while Custom Game mode lets you tune everything to your liking, and you can even play with Steam friends. Each character brings unique bonuses catering to different playstyles, so part of the fun is finding your favorite henchman.
