Pandemic - Impressions of the board game

no infection in Europe or America, just on the Middle East appeared black cholera. The first sick? In Delhi. Heavy pollution of local water was an ideal place for disease germs. A member of our team, scientist, and does not hesitate to go to India. It comes in more infections and cholera is spreading to neighboring towns. Thanks chartrovému flight be quickly moved from New York to India and dispatcher. During the next two rounds are diehard fight cholera and won the team celebrate. The scientist does not participate in the celebration and is working on a cure to rid the world of the dreaded cholera. Everyone was relieved and the dispatcher picks up another card from the deck. Epidemic. The disease extends the time in Washington, U.S. President probably got a parcel with anthrax. Scientist and dispatcher are starting to sweat because they are on the other side of the planet. Coming round intensification of infection and infectious cards. The dispatcher is turned deadly and toppings it sweats. Washington, New York and Madrid. Anthrax spreads to Europe from America in the capital city of the United States there is a pandemic. The world is heading for destruction!

I might look like your first attempt to save the world in a board game Pandemic. For me personally, the first cooperative game, which my hands. Hard to believe that there are games that motivate players beating each other but rather join forces and capabilities for greater good. At a time when you play Pandemic, you love this scheme. Where the Racing and Scrabble or Scrabble players bet on vocabulary and a quick improvisation, there is just know if I can save mankind:).

rules and difficulty

rules are not hard at all. The box with the game, see Czech and Slovak version of the rules, even when the original and the quality looks just Czech. The rules are explained clearly and concisely, including examples. These are very practical, because even after a few games to have them come back for sure. The box with the game as well as two decks of cards (48 infectious and 59 players), 5 pieces for the characters, 6 research stations, 6 chips drugs and pandemic / infection, 96 blocks of four different colors of disease, 5 role cards and 4 reference cards serves as a quick help with the capabilities of players. Furthermore, the game obviously has a game plan, which is composed of four interconnected parts and easy parts. It is up to her classical map with continents and cities are joined by transition lines. For the game is designed very well, including a place for cards, chips and a brief description of the player's game phase. Here I should also note a slight, because the game plan is tough, but the surface is relatively easy to scratch, and especially the reflection of light touches are visible. After a hundred games is probably not the ideal spectacle, but at least the game will be "worn use.

probably the most difficult to play the very beginning, When you prepare and mix the two card packs, ready to deal, part of the role (in the game there are 5, each unique and distinctive style of play changing), infecting the city on the map and put the chips in the right place. When you play more often this process much faster experience and possibly a greater number of players who were added in preparation. Then all the characters and the players put a stop to Atlanta, where the center of the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and starts the actual game. It consists of three phases of stroke recurrence. Each player has at least 4 events at which can move, build a station, to cure diseases or to develop a cure. To gain experience, it is good to use reference cards with the options the player has. Important roles are separating players. There are five interesting and strategic thinking as players. For example, researcher card allows cities to pass teammates, who stands with him in the same city. During normal game rule, you can only pass of the card, in which we stand. Using researcher greatly simplifies the creation of a cure for every disease ...

experience of playing

Personally I was very pleasantly surprised by the game systems. Some board games are fighting with the issue of chance and the path of different scenarios. Pandemic is another way, the only chance there is in the form of card packages the shuffle. I would not have talked about luck, as the variability of the game. Virtually every game is different at the beginning of other cities are affected, the epidemic in different ways and coming players choose (the best are pulling blindly) their roles. They greatly changes the character of the game and motivate players to repeat and repeat. Moreover, there is an epidemic, which is in the game until the sixth Beginners should play the 4, 5, and later with enough experience to try the legendary difficulty of six epidemics. To some it may seem like a small thing, it's just one card, but believe that the game is much more difficult and will need to change the strategy and ...

game is quite addictive, and even when he himself played in two with a partner (the way it almost selected and uses it well to improve their geographical skills! And not alone, a Karachi I knew very well:)), and portions of the often repeat and fight for the billions of people around the world. From experience I can also say that it is quite variable good game, almost never exceed one hour, but within 45-60 minutes that I find on the box too narrow. How do you get the game under the skin, you can play for 30 minutes. In my ideal is 30-45 minutes playing time for which the time almost always. As far as the resulting ratio of wins and losses, Pandemic has ruled against us, but the exact numbers that I do not want to say (just to be sure, the game is cooperative spirit and willingness of the players really very, very important:)).

Research dangerous diseases is not just a simple profession ...

Summary

Pandemic is unique and innovative game. There are no requirements for knowledge of players and does not depend on dice tosses. Everything is imbued, reactions to the new situation and arrangement of fighters for a world without disease. Good performance of the play and the gameplay players entertained for hours and after each performance ends the game there will be another challenge to other roles, with more epidemics, with more infected cities at the beginning of the game ... Options, as the game will be fun, are you.
