Description from the publisher:
Welcome to the Iberian Peninsula! Set in 1848, Pandemic Iberia asks you to take on the roles of nurse, railwayman, rural doctor, sailor, and more to find the cures to malaria, typhus, the yellow fever, and cholera.
From Barcelona to Lisboa, you will need to travel by carriage, by boat, or by train to help the Iberian populace. While doing so, distributing purified water and developing railways will help you slow the spread of diseases in this new version of Pandemic.
Discover a unique part of the world during a historically significant time period: the construction of the first railroad in the Iberian Peninsula during the Spring of Nations.
The game comes with two variants that can be added :
Influx of Patients : the cubes, representing patients, will tend to flock to hospitals to try to get cured. Hospitals also are a bit more powerful.
Historical Diseases : instead of being generic, each disease has a specific power to better represent what it is (Malaria, Cholera, Yellow Fever etc.)
Part of the Pandemic series.

This is the only pandemic game I've played. Perhaps I had higher expectations but pushing the blocks around did not feel very engrossing to the theme. It's also sometimes difficult to find the city you are looking for. I found near the end we could just calculate if we were going to win or lose. I really like the way the deck gets stacked, very innovative.

Surprisingly Challenging but again if you like the concept of Pandemic, its hard to go wrong with this version.
