Review: A captivating board game - I recently got back into board gaming after many years not playing them and was looking for something different that could be played co-operatively rather than competitively. Pandemic was mentioned many times as a great example so I decided to give it a try. This is an excellent game. I've been learning the game and playing it 2 player with my wife and we are finding it very enjoyable. The core of the game is playing as two people with different roles trying to travel around the world treating disease outbreaks ( of four different diseases) and trying to find cures whilst the outbreaks of these diseases escalate and epidemics emerge. The game has a mechanic to provide the spread and escalation of infection and outbreak, it's very well done. My mind boggles at the game designer coming up with this. It's a clever game yet not too complex and we found it accessible and were grasping it quickly. Soon we'll be adding our friend as a third player and really look forward to it. It's a great game to get your working together, communicating and forming strategy to try to prevent a worldwide unbeatable pandemic. This is an excellent game. Very impressed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this basically a real time version of Pandemic The Cure?**
A: No, this is very different from all the other versions of Pandemic. You are on a plane delivering supplies to cities. Same world and concept (stopping a pandemic), but the real time aspect and the plane make it feel very different.

**Q: How many players does this play? Can it be played solo?**
A: Hello, according to a webpage that we found. You can play solo and up to 5 players. But we encourage you to please do a quick research just to confirm our information. Have a blessed day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another must have expansion for Pandemic
*by D***N on 12 September 2016*

If you are considering buying this item, then you will already be a fan of the Pandemic game series. Pandemic State of Emergency is the third expansion from Z-man Games for this amazing game. The three new games are: The Hinterlands Challenge, the Emergency Event challenge and the Superbug challenge. Of the three challenges Superbug is by far the most interesting and played in our household. The Hinterlands challege is played the least. I the Superbug challenge you not only have to cure the regular diseases but you also have to build vaccing centres and produce vaccines for the Superbug. Vaccines are the only way to treat the Superbug, you cannot treat it as you would a normal disease. It's very difficult but very enjoyable. The Emergency Events challenge essentially allows you to replace Epidemic cards with Events that work against you, these events can continue every round or may be one off events. The Hinterlands challenge expands the board by itroducing some new cities that can only be reached via certain locations. They represent cities that have animal diseases that have mutated to infect humans. At the beginning of each turn a special dice is rolled and depending on the outcome disease cubes are placed on Hinterlands cities. There are of course new roles including the veterinarian who works only in the Hinterlands challenge, the pilot who can travel much further than normal players and can transport another player along with him, the General who is capable of placing quarantine counters on cities, these essentially act to protect cities from infections. The quarantine counters can also be used without the General where placing a quarantine counter in a city becomes one of your actions. If you are reading this and do not have the base Pandemic game, buy it! Buy it now! It is the best game we have played and is also a co-operative game meaning all players work together to beat the game. If you already own Pandemic then buy this expansion, you will thoroughly enjoy the Superbug challenge, and the additional roles and features will enhance your gaming experience further.
