Universe Pandemic 2

You can see what place has built the most resistance or done the most research towards a cure or is most aware of the viruses existence, but you can't just go to it to do anything about it. You have to close the info screen, and with the game time on (since there is no pause except when in a menu) manually navigate the map looking for it. Also every country closes borders and ports based on infection, not based on awareness. Makes no sense. It comes down to luck, because even if you make your disease entirely unnoticeable it spreads randomly and if it doesn't infect every country before too many countries get a high infected population you become unable to win the game because of port closures. Makes no sense that your alien assistants can't infect more than one (the first) person per game. All of this needs to be fixed before it can be considered a 5 star game. 4 star is still worth playing though.

I found this game pretty fun at first, but as I progressed it quickly lost that due to the odd inclusion of a game mechanic whereby you have to click a little pop up thing that randomly appears on the map and then disappears like 2 seconds later. This short timespan turns this game into a frustrating piece of crap. Playing on small maps, it's annoying, but fine I guess. However, on large maps... it's so stupid. Playing on Asia, you hear them pop up, but they disappear before you can even find them. And that ruins the game because you can't progress, because for some insane reason the virus won't move to a new area unless you click that little bubble in the 2 seconds if appears. If you miss it, you're screwed. Get rid of that feature and this would probably be a really fun game of trying to upgrade the virus in such a way to take over the whole continent. But with this feature, it's not worth playing at all.

Do you ever just feel sick and tired of the same old games? The "do this repetitive objective and invite your friends on facebook to do the same" so-called fund gaming apps? Well, here is a came that will simply hook you for days. If you have the stamina for "Risk", the stomach for "Contagion", and consider yourself a bit of a misanthrope, try this game! Your goal: create the most infectious/ deadly pathogen so your alien race can utilize the energy of all the worlds' dead!

There’s no adds which I appreciate so much. It seems like every single game has adds now or they want you to pay for the add free version and I’ve stopped playing them because of that. It’s a very difficult game but a lot of fun. I’ll end up playing it for hours without realizing it. Highly recommend downloading it.

This is pandemic 2 with many more features, a lot more hands-on gameplay and a lot more engaging. There actually feels like there is skill involved and not just luck and for once, I destroyed Madagascar before those idiots can shut down the ports. I would suggest a better tutorial and better description of how infective or destructive the disease is. All in all, it's a great game
