It's hard, with a game you only play through once, to know whether it was just a bad play or if the game itself is to blame. In my case, I think I was a bit turned off by how not-really-Pandemic S2 is (with S1, a large part of my fun was seeing how they twisted the formula away from it, which I didn't get here). That being said, I didn't get into S2 as much because of how swingy the difficulty was: we lost multiple games without having a snowman's chance, and won others without ever feeling threatened. Is it the game fault, the way the card felt, or something we did? I don't know. It was still fun, but nowhere near as good as S1 was (which I rate a 10).

My 10 is to counter all these dicks putting 1's for no reason other than being morons. Even though you can only play through once it is a unique experience and most enjoyable if its anything like season 1. Really at the end of the game you could just use whatever you created to keep playing that scenario.

played through and I am ready to give my final evaluation. the sense of discovery is wonderful. Now if only we didn't have such large rules accumulation because of that discovery. The ambition of this game is that you won’t have the same priorities or pace/ark in a game. Every action on the action card that you have built through the game is used in the last month, but how you evaluate the actions, and your resources, fundamentally change. And so I very much argue that this game should NOT be played real time. When you spend a month away from a game, you rely on more vague memories of the rules. When you take a year to play, you look for the similarities more, instead of just embracing the changes as they come. I will absolutely buy season 3 when it comes. but this was definitely a step back from the mastery of season 1. Or at least my experience of trying to play it in real time was a mistake compared to the “binge” play I did on season 1
