Abit confusing
The game is an ok time-killer, although - I didn't understand why countries would immunize themselves against a disease that they probably wouldn't even be affected by.
Reviews for "Pandemic: EoM"
Solid work; a potentially great game
I enjoyed this a lot, but I understand the frustrations some people are having. After about 50 play-throughs, here are my suggestions:
- Make sure that planes have destinations different from their origins! It is VERY frustrating to invest a dozen points to infect an airport, only to read "Plane from Canada lands in Canada."
- Investment in skill increases exponentially with each level advance (level 4 costs 16 points, level 5 costs 25), but the chance to succeed at a given task (spread, infect water/airport, etc.) seems to barely change at all. Overall, the chance to succeed at every task at every skill level needs to be tweaked upwards.
- Consider restoring the original attribute sheet from the first game. The symptom list especially (vomiting, necrosis, fever) is much, much more fun and evocative than a simple "Infectiousness" stat number.
I liked it
But it is almost impossible for me to get all of the countrys. I liked the simplicity and style of the original but this one could be an improvement if you expand on it.
I'm 36th!!! Great game!
I formed a great strategy of spreading, infecting neighboring countries, infecting airports that led me to killing off mankind! I remember playing this last year and I hated it because I couldn't beat it, but now it's great fun. Excellent work.
Wipe out
Don't we all just love wiping out mankind....... I know I do :)
