quote from guide
Earthquakes Earthquakes greatly reduce the effectiveness of hospitals in the region. Floods Floods temporarily boost exposure to your disease if your disease is able to spread via water. Hurricanes Hurricanes temporarily close airports due to high winds. Also temporarily closes schools and transit. Drought Droughts increase insect population, and boosts exposure to your disease if it is spreadable by insects. Riots Riots negate the effects of curfews.

why would greenland need to close it's schools when there are 417 people alive and all of them are infected? also, madagascar needs an airport

OK, I did it once as I STARTED on Madagascar, but otherwise it's nearly im possible, which draws the fun out of this game for me. Tweak it! IT IS NOT LOGICAL!

This game can go either way. It really is a 50/50 win or lose situation. But thats really stupid i mean with those chances why even play the game.

I infected the entire world (except Madagascar) using only the Airborne transmission with no symptoms and tier 3 resistances! Too bad Madagascar didn't close its borders for 92 days, yet never got a boat that was infected ...

Hm, the idea of the game is really great, but game itself 3/5. You have some wierd regions (like Peru is third of South America etc.), floods in North Africa, earthquakes in Europe, a dozen of airports and shipyards in the whole world, and i have 0 visibility, but still, they somehow managed to spot infection.
P.S: in deadly pandemia breaks up, go to Madagascar - its infectionproof.

fun premise but poor execution, way too dependent on luck. i hope they do another one that is a bit more realistic. id like to see livestock added as another vector, and instead of the planes and boats just randomly traveling it would be nice to see how many passengers are on board, how many of them are infected, how many infected rats or insects are on board and where it's headed. maybe a bit too much to ask but it would definitely make the game more strategic.

I'm confused as to why rodents and insects obey the closing of borders, wouldn't the pass anyway and continue the spreading?
