Lead the Netherlands into the Industrial Age in the latest version of the cooperative classic! It is the dawn of the Industrial Age in the Netherlands. For centuries, the country has relied upon a series of dikes and wind-powered pumps to keep it safe from the constant threat of flooding from the North Sea. But this system is no longer enough.

Yet another quality game in the Pandemic line. This one can create a different and more severe feeling of panic near the end of the game where the build up of the water becomes more and more significant to a point where it feels like it can't be stopped. I think that works for a game about flooding... I've never been in a real flood, but the game sure seems to feel like what it would if you're overwhelmed by water... in an abstract, board game kind of way.

I enjoyed this version of Pandemic: Rising Tide and would like to try it out some more. There were some issues with map readability, but the new puzzle is definitely intriguing to me.

I like the water spreading mechanism, it works very well, and I love that the board has character. Not in terms of art (although that's fine), but in terms of gameplay. Every region has a different feel which gives the game personality and makes me want to play it repeatedly to learn how to play best on it. As opposed to generic Pandemic which doesn't have much appreciable difference between all the different regions. The only advantage of the original, to me, is ease of teaching (but I'd prefer Forbidden Island for that, anyway), and the setup is a lot easier and quicker.
