I named a viurs "Pokémon GO" and infected the world with it.

In this game you will:
-Destroy humanity with various disease types
-Destroy humanity in different scenarios
-Give your disease a ridiculus and a very stupid name
-Question your sanity
-Hate every island in the world
-Scream in suffering when an uninfected Greenland closes it's only port
-Scream in joy when you somehow infect a portless Greenland

Overall:
9/10 Not enough Greenland

The death of one is a tragedy. The death of millions is just a statistic.

Strategy, Simulation, Sandbox


Adjustable: Ranges from pretty easy to more or less impossible to win.


+ unique and interesting idea
+ morbid sense of humor
+ amount of content
+ well designed menus
+ funny pop-ups
+ Necroa-Virus and ALZ-113 (offer more strategical elements and depth)
+ some funny and interesting scenarios
+ scenario editor and workshop-support
+ easy and convenient handling


~ no real evidence for asserted realism and complexity
~ multiplayer-mode (I've not tested yet)


- sometimes unbalanced
- in a few matches some bugs appeared
- poor music and sound (luckily I have a Spotify-Account)
- many invisible and poorly explained game mechanics
- actually superficial, clinical and repetitive gameplay
- emotionless (didn't feel anything about clicking humankind to hell and total annihilation just appears as a Pop-Up)
- gameplay mechanisms contain possible dead-ends (this is why Greenland is mentioned that often here)



Thinking of the quotation above I have to say Plague Inc. Evolved takes that pretty literally! For several hours it's an entertaining game with an interesting premise. But the game keeps that totally vague and abstract. Malicious tongues might reproach Plage Inc. Evolved for being little more than a well-desgined Excel-Sheet. To experiment with the variables is the only real fun-factor of the game. No more, no less. Just enough for a withdrawn recommendation.

*Starts new game*

*Calls Plague "Donald Trump"*

*Infects America*

*Infects the whole world*

*Kills the world*

10/10 Best predictor out there

Score – 8/10 (Pretty Good)

It's hard to fault Plague Inc: Evolved since it does so many things right: the game gives you the opportunity to be the stereotypical, evil mad scientist, hell-bent on destroying humanity and while this can be a challenge to do (especially on higher difficulty levels or if you're going for Greenland – friggin' Greenland…) it's quite easy to grasp the basics of spreading your virus/bacteria and evolving it. Add Steam achievements, trading cards, multiplayer (co-op and competitive), leaderboards and the ability to make your own mods, and you've got yourself a great value-for-money game that should keep you entertained for a long time.

THIS GAME MAKES ME SICK

I love it

Fun way to kill time, though I now have to explain to my roommate why I hate greenland. Just remember to invest in cold resistance early.

It's better than the Mobile version. Endless fun, new modes, new diseases, new fun (workshop), make your own share fun (workshop).

Not a direct port unlike every other mobile app to PC.

-Gets plague inc
-Names pathogen Beer Cancer
-Beer cancer evolved Ismonia or something. <no sleep>
-Beer cancer evolved Lethality by 2x!
-Doesnt sleep
-Beer cancer has now evolved Turn into!
-Turns into Bio-Weapon
10/1 Would Weapon Again

Plague Inc is a unique sandbox/strategy/simulation game in which you'll be able to play up to 8 different types of deadly diseases with one main goal: To infect and kill every single person in the world. Sounds morbid? Well, it surely is!

Upon launching a match you'll first get to choose the disease you want to play - you'll also get to choose one of four difficulty levels - the least one being really though - even for long term players. After this you'll skip to a map of the earth and here you'll get to choose a starting country and from there on you gotta use the skill system (3 skill trees which differ - depending on your disease - all of them using DNA which you'll gather during the match) to overcome the obstacles which the game will throw at you. You'll develop more efficient transmission/resistance abilities to spread further and infect more people - as well as symptoms to spread and later to kill. The setup is very realistic, with a ton of countries, climate zones and random events to make every match you play unique. Note that every match is 45 minutes to 2h long - depending on how you're playing. You're able to save and revisit your match at any given point.

At first you'll only able to play as bacteria but upon winning a match you'll unlock the next disease-type. You'll also unlock genes to modify your diseases to make them more resistant to their environment and to generally strengthen them (this enables possibilities to differ in strategies and YES, there IS a zombie disease ).

I should mention that there aren't any graphics aside of the skilltrees and the map on which planes and ships are moving around and infection bubbles popping up - but those are enough to make it an entangling and fun game. The soundtrack is very good - and there are sometimes sligth noises like coughing or children playing depending on which far your disease has spread. In the end everything is silent - a pretty sinister and strong impression if you'd ask me!

I should also mention that there is a enjoyable multiplayer with PvP and Co-op and a scenario creator as well as tons of archievements and scenarios - most of them for more experienced players!

This game is extremely fun despite having such a scary background and I really recommend it to you if you're interested in diseases and tactical simulations with much freedom and many ways to approach your goal!
