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!

Need to play with an timer app (not sand timer) as it's too easy to lose track of the sand timer. Game felt fairly easy on basic mode, so I'll be interested to try it at higher difficulties.

Holy crap do I hate this game! Real time dice chucking irritates me enough but adding needing to move a bunch of cubes around a board, move your pawn from one location to the next, move the airplane, and keep track of where others are made me completely loathe this game. The Pandemic label has just been slapped on this disaster to cash in on the brand and has zero connection to the Pandemic series at all apart from each player having a special ability and the cities being the same. This game belongs in a trash bin.

A real-time dice-rolling game using the theme of Pandemic. As far as real-time games go, it isn't bad. I can't say it's anything special and we've enjoyed playing it as a short, quick-playing dice-roller that does bring in some cooperation among the players.
