While I appreciate the Old Ones and the Sanity mechanism in this game, the simplified logistical puzzle (compared to other entries in the series) takes away a lot of my enjoyment of the game. Also, I find that the Shoggoth's movement, while very cool in theory, often ends up adding a huge swing in difficulty based on where they spawn.

This game is good because Pandemic is fundamentally good, but its new mechanisms (sanity and gates) are not significantly better than those in Pandemic itself. Plus the board is super dark and the artwork, while nice, becomes completely invisible as soon as the super distracting bright teal coloured miniatures are placed down. I do however, like the Shuggoth (moving epidemic) rules very much.

Super interesting game, loved it. Fresh take on Pandemics style. Dont go into this trying your tried and true strategies, the GOO will get you.
