Oh no, a terrible pandemic is raging across the country! Will you be the heroic medics … or will you play the virus?
Epic Medics
Who will you be? Team Medics or The Virus?
Team Medics
Your job is to discover the vaccine and keep the virus from spreading too much.
On your turn, take one of these actions:
- Move: move your character to a new city
- Quarantine: close the city you’re currently in (disallowing anyone from entering or leaving)
- Research: you may ask the virus a question (such as “is this city infected?”) or take a step towards a vaccine … but for a price
- Cure: cure all sick people in your city (if the vaccine has been discovered)
You may do as many actions as you wish. But you must pay for each of them by moving someone across the board. Which might just help the virus spread a little faster …
You have one big advantage: you can cooperate with all the other medic players, each of which has a unique ability (and gets a turn every round).
But there’s a huge disadvantage: you can only move healthy people. Even worse: the virus can move unseen, while you have to take and discuss your actions out in the open!
Team Virus
Your job is to infect as many cities as possible. (Or overwhelm the medics and prevent them from creating a vaccine.)
Take one of these actions:
- Move: move a sick person to a new city
- Quarantine: sneakily evade quarantine or add it … but for a price
- Outbreak: pick a healthy city that has sick people in it; you may infect everyone in the city at once!
You use a secret part of the board to infect cities, which means medics will have a tough time figuring out the mysterious ways of a virus …
Random Events
This is an expansion to the base game. It introduces a random event at the start of each round, to shake things up and add extra challenge.
At the start of a game, go to the game page. Pick your settings, click the button. Whenever you start a new round (in the real game), click the button again to get a new event!
Support
You can hire me! Maybe you need a special board game or video game for a birthday or educational purpose? I'm also open to inquiries about physically publishing my games. I am a registered freelance artist from the Netherlands and you can contact me professionally through my portfolio.
If unsure, visit my Online Store. It contains everything I ever made. Though it focuses on playful education and activities for children/family, first and foremost.
Another great way to support me is to simply let me know what you think! Mail me at harmonize@pandaqi.com with any feedback.
Alternatives would be to buy my paid work (a win-win situation!) or to donate through the most popular channels (see buttons below).
