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!

It's not a catastrophically bad game, but the fact that for being a real time game you have to wait for your turn it's not very good. Sometimes you're better off giving your turn away to the next player! It's an interesting idea, an interesting theme, an interesting twist. A fun gimmick, but other real time games are way, way better than this

Wow. I wasn’t expecting such a good feeling from a real time Pandemic. Aside from the board a little too dark, the gameplay is just a blast : it is intense, fun, balanced, with a serious taste of “one more game”. Brilliant. The rules are easy to access and offer a nice learning curve to get the most efficient in this challenging (and somehow chaotic) environment. In final, a very nice surprise and a game that will often land on our tables.

Another amazing game from Kane Klenko. I love Fuse and I love Pandemic. This entwines the two really well. Had so much fun with this. But beware it's nothing like the base pandemic, instead It's a stressful realtime exhiliration fest. Don't get perturbed by the difficulty. It seems impossible at first but when you get into the zone if flows perfectly. It's a 8/10 for me, but I'm biased because I get such a kick out of real-tine games.
