Great implementation of the Board Game – Pandemic: The Board Game Review

I have just the basic addition, so I can’t comment on the extensions. I played the physical game once then bought this game. I read the rules, and the guide that comes up while you play makes it really easy to learn. (When you start the game you chose your team, difficulty and “Info Mode” for the person who forgot how to turn this off) You have to plan your moves ahead, to the extent that you can, and realize just about every country just infected will be in again about 5 turns after an epidemic., I find keeping the infection under control usually works best, even if it means racing around the board to do so, and putting off turning cards until the end. I am still playing this allot a couple of years now. It lets u retract a move up until you draw cards. Unless you exit the game mid turn. This might make u relax , but it doesn’t let u always retract plays of say air card as it goes right into infection. Also it lets u play shuffle card before the epidemic cards have been returned to the deck, which in almost all cases would be a complete waste. Still any retraction option is very nice. There is a small bug where the player info panel on the right does not display. I used to shut down my iPad to fix this but found if u exit the game not the app, and resume it fixes this.
