What fun. I do everything right, Madagascar is infected early.... and Peru decides to take it's place as the impossible to infect country.
wtf? Peru? How does Peru not get infected......
I finished the placement phase, managed to remove one of the opponent's pieces during that, then instead of getting to move to clear off more, I was told I lost.
How did I lose if I was ahead, and the second phase never played?
the graphics are great, possibly too great. This game was constantly lagging.
Otherwise, I echo the others. Too few lives with sudden ambush predators, while realistic, doesn't make for a decent game.
And prey being able to swim through walls, again realistic given small fish can hide in coral and reefs, only adds to the frustration.
I get the game, I understand what's being said.
I'm rating 2/5 for the absolute frustration of having to do the same place over and over and over because the controls are so touchy. Then I do what I'm told, and it kills me so I have to go back through the same area that just took me an hour to get past.
A suggestion, and one that's been made before: It would be nice if we could dismiss heroes from the base camp. Sometimes you just know you aren't going to hire a certain one, and it would be good to be able to free up that slot before a new hero comes along and replaces one at random that you really -do- want.
