Embark on an epic adventure to bring humanity back from the brink of extinction in this standalone follow-up to the acclaimed Pandemic Legacy: Season 1. Black and Yellow Editions have variant covers game contents are the same.

Really enjoyed it solo. Although i did not enjoy as much as Season 1, i REALLY liked that they changed up the mechanics enough to make it fresh - highly recommend

My partner and I both liked the greater freedom to shape the characters' identities, compared to Season 1. She loved the new "recon" and "search this location" events. But the writing on plot cards was disappointing and i didn't like doing so many messy scratch-offs.

It's hard, with a game you only play through once, to know whether it was just a bad play or if the game itself is to blame. In my case, I think I was a bit turned off by how not-really-Pandemic S2 is (with S1, a large part of my fun was seeing how they twisted the formula away from it, which I didn't get here). That being said, I didn't get into S2 as much because of how swingy the difficulty was: we lost multiple games without having a snowman's chance, and won others without ever feeling threatened. Is it the game fault, the way the card felt, or something we did? I don't know. It was still fun, but nowhere near as good as S1 was (which I rate a 10).
