Pandemic: On the Brink includes new event cards, new role cards, rules for five players, and optional game challenges to increase the difficulty of the Pandemic base game. These new challenges, which can be used individually or combined for even more difficult play, are as follows:
The Virulent Strain challenge makes one disease become particularly deadly in unpredictable ways.
The Mutation challenge adds a fifth (purple) disease that behaves differently than the original four.
The Bio-Terrorist challenge pits one player against the others!
Part of the Pandemic series.

120200 Wow. Its just a great expansion. In fact as an Expansion its a 10...a must have to make the base game better - especially for 2 people. With 2 players its just too easy to control the game but OTB adds a little more randomness and chaos to keep the game lively.

Great expansion with new characters and mechanics. Not too found of the bio-terrorist mode, but we include all other elements in our play of the base game.

Solid expansion. Fantastic insert. Great quality components. Adds a good variety of additions to the game. Best expansion for the game IMHO
