Good, but...
but one thing bothers me. Why is Africa so fucking hard to infect? Aren't they all supposed to have AIDS? I'm half joking, but seriously the infection rate is something like 1/4 of the entire population. Wouldn't that make it the easiest country to infect?
awesome
Loved the first one, love the second one. I do miss the music from the first game though. This game has good music but it dosn't have that "abandon all hope" feel to it. Still, great job.
Don't give this game a bad rating just because you're can't figure out how to beat it.
Sore Losers
This game is awesome. Seriously. It's frustrating, but once you know what to do, it's rewarding. Just keep on trying. But if you really get stuck:
1) Get your infectivity and resistance up to 3 each.
2) This next part depends on whether you're in an isolated region to start with (Greenland, Australia), or a land-locked one (Europe).
a) If isolated, infect the whole population, then infect the airports until you get another country infected.
b) If land-locked, infect half the population, then infect the water supply. Move to an adjacent country and infect.
3) Repeat step 2 as fast as possible, infecting half-infected countries fully every other turn. Once you have all the continents fully infected, feel free to crush their hopes by impeding their cures and increasing your lethality.
This walkthrough is not foolproof, mainly due to the randomization factor. Don't get discouraged if you don't get every country infected on your first try. At least you have a general sense of what to do now.
Thanks for the good review !
Decent
This is only an ok game. Much better than last time though. Good effort. Keep trying.
MUCH better
I like this one MUCH better. This one acually gives you control over what the virus does. T also like it beacuse it takes stategy *no offence to the guy below me*. Its not just the constant clicking of the mouse of the 'go' button. You DO need to dring back the whole upgradong panel rather than just a stat panel. It gives it a feel of coustomization. Also, there should be a point cost for subtracting leathality. Sometimes you just want infected people not dead poeple. Also, when you press 'end turn', the info panel should stay on the country you were looking at intead of going off, it gets alloying after a while. Also, when a country dies or get 'completely wiped out', it hould turn black. Also a harder, longer one should be made and its longer so like it take more than one day to finish. You could call the current one 'quickie' and the long term one 'prolonged destruction' or something like that. Of course, your going to have to magnify the numbers. Say africa has a pop of like 500k, you want to bump it up to like 30 mil, or get real pop counts.
You would obviously have to put in a save function ^_^.
Thanks for the review !
