Face dangerous new threats as a fifth virus spreads across the globe and Hot Zones make their entrance, changing the rules? for the worse! Fortunately, new medical experts have joined the fight to help you. Experimental Meds is a healthy dose of expansion contents to Pandemic: The Cure.

I like The Cure with the expansion and I like the Cure more than Pandemic boardgame because the dice game is less deterministic and the roles and events are more effective. The purple disease and new roles smooth out gameplay. Some very clever roles like Field op, Troubleshooter, Quarantine spec and events like Major research grant, Short term planning, Questionable methods add to the enjoyment. Product quality is better than the base game (player dice are a bit bigger and feel better in hand). Got this for half the price of the base game so can't complain about pricing either. I'll even argue that the expansion is essential.

I mostly just appreciate this for the increase to replayability. Every Pandemic game appreciates optional challenge modes to shake things up.

This is an expansion. Adds a 5th player to the game and 5th decease. Original game only has 4 players
