Overview
The action is controlled from above by clicking to interact with your base and workforce. Via menus you can select new technology to build, or send your forces off to establish corrupt projects in different parts of the world. All the time you need to be on your guard against enemy agents investigating or coming to assassinate you.
Although this focuses on violence and corruption it's all done in a comical style. For example, you can send enemy do-gooders spinning away with a Pinball Bumper, or put the chomp on them with the Venus Spy-Trap. Then there are your evil schemes: selling the British Royal Family, Kidnaping the Governor of Maine, or literally making Baked Alaska.

Accessibility
The first time you start the game you are prompted to confirm some accessibility settings including colour-blind filter, brightness and auto-pause/auto-save.
The game can automatically pause when your character is attacked or when you start building your base to reduce time-pressure. While paused you can still execute commands without the clock ticking.
The game generally has good contrast and you can hover the cursor to highlight any object. Screen shake and flashes only occur in one instance - upon firing the doomsday device. You can disable Depth of Field to make the game kinder for motion sickness.
You can adjust how long Short, Medium and Long pop-up information stays on the screen.
You can't adjust the size of the user interface but you can make the cursor larger.
