Reviews for Pandemic: EoM

[killer-monkey110]

Hm - easier then the first.

The first one I had extream difficulty beating it once they shut down the transit. this is far easier. all you need to do is spend the intal 5 points to get your infecticality to lvl 3; then end your turn (providing the guy with the virus dosn't die) infect the rest of your country, once you do that, infect boardering countrys and the airport. and from there repeat the "Infect fully ; travel " thing.
Don't upgrade your leathalcality untillyou have ever country infected. cuz you need your people infected, and alive. not dead and useless, and unless someone in greenland, or australia gets a cure before your luck allows you to fly there, you should wipe out humanity with a swift blow.

In closing ; Fun. The upgrading your virus does seem a little difficult.

Disappointing

This Pandemic game was a disappointing. It's decent, whilst the old Pandemic game was perfectley balanced.

The new options in the game diden't justify the old game. Even though it were much simple,it just diden't keep me entertained like the old one.

Even the graphics felt much more smooth and professional than the new Pandemic.

Sometimes simple is best.

On the other hand i give you credits for implenting new gameplay to the game.

When it's all put together, i can simply say it's a decent game.

great game!

hehehe, isn't is lovely to wipe out the entire world population?
this is better then the original game, at least that's what i think.
too bad i couln't destroy all of humanity, america and canada got immune, so i called my virus: george.W bush.
too bad i scored too low, but i had fun anyway.
good job, keep it up

Not better then first

I was excited, when I see second Pandemic. But as I started, I realise the mutations panel desapear, and now there's only 3 dull params. That makes game looses much fun.
Insted of that there are new "strategical" options. It would be enough, but actions sometimes work at once, sometimes I heve to click about 5 times, sometimes nothing works.
Cures are also good idea, a rivalization with time, but attaking countries, with I was separated by water, was horrible. First, it was hard to infect airport, then a plane had to strike (sometimes it get back to home country). It's very annoying.
Asia should be rename to South-Asia.
So: It could be a great game, but some annoying stuff change it - fix it. It would be good, if mutations panel came back. Then Pandemic will be a perfect in every inch.

Is certianly true.

Well its now a firm idea that "spin off's" and all the "squeals" to a great thing really do suck. The immunity levels go up WAY to fast. I haden't even infected the second country and some one was immune. You can spend 16 points trying to infect something with no success what-so-ever. And i spent 16 points in the same turn. Why not try a mini game where if you fail, you don't infect them, but if you pass it you get into the country. The whole "Try it until it works" idea is rubbish.
