Disaster has struck! Cities around the world are in desperate need of food, water, vaccines, and other supplies. You and your team belong to the Crisis Response Unit (CRU), an elite team of doctors and specialists. With a specially equipped plane, you are uniquely capable of providing life-saving aid — anytime, anywhere.
Pandemic: Rapid Response is a race against time. Roll dice to create supplies, fly the plane, and make deliveries to cities in need. As the timer counts down, you must quickly coordinate and work together to react to new disasters. Will you and your team be able to respond in time?
The nations of the world have pooled their resources and assembled a diverse crew. Each of the seven unique role cards features its own ability. The Analyst, Adjoua Soro, is able to re-roll the dice up to two additional times. The Engineer, Soojin Sohn, can change any die result with a plane to a different symbol. Take turns as quickly as possible, using your role’s unique ability and strategically allocating your dice to be as efficient as possible when creating supplies.
When you’re ready for a new challenge, adjust the difficulty level or add crisis cards for a greater variety of obstacles to overcome. Now hurry — the timer is counting down and the world needs your help!

A good game full of tension. It can get really hard, even on the easiest levels, but it has a great sense of comradery and accomplishment. It can get a little samey, but the interactions are always new.

This is a cool real-time cooperative game. The dice are among the nicest I've ever seen. For a real-time game, this might be a bit overproduced though... Theme (artwork/story/...) 1/2 (1 for the dice!) Gameplay (smooth play/player interaction/strategy&tactics/depth) 3/5 Fun factor (can you afford a smile during play?) 2/3

another year, another pandemic spinoff. It's a real time game like xcom. the difference is, instead of making split second decisions on budgeting limited resources to save earth, you stand in a room, roll dice and then if you don't get what you want, you pass to the next person and so on. Then you drop a dumpster full of rusty tin cans, batteries, and used bandaids/syringes on poor people. The real time aspect makes this game extremely stressful, would not recommend for people with butterfingers. My hands were greasy from all the fried chicken and pizza and canola oil i was eating so those dice got everywhere.
