Thematically you can now build railroads to increase your speed of movement and instead of curing the diseases you are preventing them from spreading by providing an access to fresh water. Moreover, you have an option to have all four diseases behave in a different, more dangerous way. You can also opt to play the game in an alternative mode in which patients move on the board. I have to admit that I haven’t tried this game mode but reading from the rules it seemed to involve a more taxing upkeep phase. Despite the apparent changes in the rules this is the same old Pandemic, in my opinion. Decisions you make and the feeling you get are still the same. I think Pandemic Iberia might be a bit more versatile than the original but now that I have had my share of Pandemic due to playing through Legacy Seasons One and Two I have absolutely no will to play this any more than I have to.

This version seems a little bit harder to me than the original, but I enjoy the challenge. The board and pieces are brilliantly designed to fit this time period. I do enjoy all the extra additions that you can add to increase the game difficulty even further than the original.

Like it. Compared to base pandemic, Iberia contains more and better events, better roles, a way to quarantine diseases, new and interesting movement mechanic and two optional variants. All this makes it better/ more complete than base pandemic. But it's also easier to win, so it wears off quickly. Politician is a bit overpowerd and Scientist could use a slight boost (like drawing 3 cards/keeping 2 at the end of her turn without spending an action).
