Description

In Pathogen, two players go head-to-head as the Doctor and the Plague, battling for control in a war that spans two worlds. The game is a thrilling abstract strategy experience, with a modular board and grid movement that adds a layer of complexity and replayability. As the Doctor, you'll work to curb the spread of the plague, while as the Plague, you'll aim to outmaneuver and overwhelm your opponent. With a playtime of just 15 to 30 minutes, Pathogen is a quick and intense game that's easy to learn but challenging to master. Designed by Kuan Chen and released in 2022, it's a great option for fans of territory building and network construction. The goal is simple: create a path or build up four settlements to emerge victorious. But with the Plague's relentless march and the Doctor's desperate efforts to stop it, the outcome is never certain.
