Description
In Pandemic, the world is on the brink of disaster as multiple diseases have broken out simultaneously. Players take on the roles of disease-fighting specialists, working together to treat hotspots and research cures before the diseases spiral out of control. With a unique set of abilities and strengths, each player must plan their strategy to mesh with their teammates, using action points to travel, treat, and discover cures. As players navigate the game board, depicting major population centers, they must contend with Epidemic cards that accelerate the spread of disease. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, Pandemic is a fast-paced, cooperative game that requires teamwork and strategy to win. Designed by Matt Leacock and first published in 2008, Pandemic has become a classic in the medical and travel game categories, offering a fun and challenging experience for 2 to 4 players.
