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.

Definitely the best twist in the series. Also much more of a challenge. I wish the wood pieces were plastic to match everything else in the series. It’s much more difficult to move around until you set up infrastructure. The water tokens that prevent cubes is a good added change from the original. Needing to build all 4 hospitals is another nice touch. In the other games you have dice or water flow as the twist but there are several in succession that mix really well to make it feel quite different while using the same system. We won our first introductory game on the very last turn we could with about 3-4 cards coming up that could have destroyed us. I thought it was over so many turns before that. I’m sure as you get better you’ll add more epidemics but for now it’s a challenge and a different type of puzzle that I’ve come to enjoy. I haven’t played all the expansions to the base yet but I’d rank this pretty high in the series for the added mechanisms. I’d probably rank chuthulu as the theme and maybe base for expansions as most variety.

I really enjoyed my first co-op experience with the Pandemic system. It was a two player gaming session and we won both times (though barely in the harder, second game). The game flows well and the deck manipulation that intensifies the diseases is a genius mechanic. The roles are all a little different and require some adjustment of strategies. I'm glad I started with this historical variation as that definitely helped me with my engagement.
