Top 5 Games With Villains-Protagonists

In video games, outspoken villains in the main roles are rarely met — at best, the character turns out to be an ambiguous antihero. However, if you have always wanted to take over the world as a bad guy, then your hour has struck: today, we have collected the top games.

Carrion

Let's start the top with an atmospheric pixel metroidvania with horror elements. Carrion's plot is quite standard for any sci-fi thriller: an experimental amorphous creature with tentacles breaks out of the flask and, destroying everyone in its path, seeks to get out to freedom. The nuance is that this monster is the main character, and the good guys who intend to stop him are now our enemies. So, we became a nightmare for those who kept us locked up in the laboratory. We evolve to gain new abilities, but we do not forget that the monster is an extremely vulnerable creature.

V Rising

An early access game that became one of the highlights of the gaming industry last year. Here, we take on the role of a weakened vampire, just awakened from a long sleep. The main character of V Rising is far from harmless and does not support modern trends for the rejection of human blood, and therefore is ready to create chaos and plunge the world into darkness in every possible way. The only problem is that all the culturally known ways of dealing with fanged monsters in this world work, and the locals are aware of this. But how can this prevent the bad guys from building castles for themselves and having fun? Especially in the company of friends.

Maneater

If, watching the movie "Jaws," you've been rooting for a shark all your life, then Maneater is your game. Take on the role of a formidable predator from the top of the food chain at the moment when he is just a cub, and guide him through all the difficulties of growing up. Fight enemies and the environment to turn into a nightmare of the nearest coasts: snack on divers, scare the coast guard, take revenge on fishermen who left you without a family. Don't feel sorry for anyone — they all deserve it!

Evil Genius 2

Evil Genius 2 is a continuation of the villain simulator, which has long become a classic. Choose your alter ego from the four available options and go create mayhem. Build a base packed with traps and terrible trials (no one should get out of it alive!), recruit allies, steal money, and make trouble in the world — this time, the good guys should not win.

Destroy All Humans! 2 - Reprobed

The last in the role of the villain in our collection will be the alien Crypto from the remake of the 2006 game. Destroy All Humans! 2 is a satirical adventure game, the main theme of which is the spreading wave of hippies, the Cold War, and, without them, the evil Russians. As before, the alien uses all possible weapons to destroy unworthy people and actively extracts DNA, which is so necessary for an extraterrestrial guest. This time, you can share the cleansing of the planet with a friend.
