Don't like how there's no way to win once an isolated region has closed its port/borders (*coughmadagascarcough*). There should always be a way to get around conditions like that, hell, allow the virus to infect sea-life.

I know it would be cheap to simply 'cheat' similar to the original pandemic (make it harmless and then wreak havok) but it seems like complete destruction is almost impossible and things are left too much to random chance

I just now started a game in madagascar. first boat out goes to africa and is infected. BUT. After said boat leaves and infects a pair of africans, an EARTHQUAKE hits madagascar and kills all 7 of my infected people there. WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!! This game is WAY too luck-based, take strategy out of the damn description.

Start the game with a virus, sell your only starting symptom straight away, go afk.
When you come back you will have 150 evolution points with the disease having spread to every country in the world. Cap out drug resistance so all the hospital's close and they won't make a vaccine.
Spend your remaining points on Liver failure etc.
You win.

meh, very luck based on spreading... if the borders/points of entry close, then odds of spreading to island countries are zero, which = game over.

I agree i think the game as an idea is brilliant and even in its current state addictive. The only complaints i have is that countries respond immediately to any new way of spreading my disease and the fact that some countries *cough* madagascar have only one point of entry. And closing borders wouldn't always stop bugs and rats or people for that matter. But amazing work none the less

peperonicokeitus... symtoms include, all, how to get, eat pizza, coke, poprocks, and a bug from every state, 1 person did that and killed everyone.

This is a great idea, but it gets really boring, really fast. Plus it's unrealistic - how can people be dying from sneezing??

i have wiped out humanity! :D
with a virus on realistic mode, starting in cuba.
very addicting game, but madagascar is really a pain.
4/5

This would be more fun if there was some actual "game" to it. There is very little that you actually do. Neat concept, boring execution. Not to mention that the only way to win is pure chance, as far as I can tell.

This game is going to cause a lot of hate for the tiny nation of Madagascar, oh and a Zombie symptom would have been amazing.

There's a lot to like about this game, especially compared to the original Pandemic, but there's one thing to hate: Madagascar. I have spent several games watching that country in particular - often, I can go a whole game and Madagascar never receives a ship. Not once. Seems like the game is impossible to win unless you actually start there.
I really like this game, but Madagascar makes it unwinnable. )o:
