Pandemic |
This section is dedicated to thoughts about Pandemic, the board game, not the year 2020. The fact that we need to do the distinction now makes me feel weird.
I started playing the game with some friends on 2019-12-31, when we were barely hearing about "2019-nCoV" in Wuhan. We did not even make the connection between the game and the current news. We struggled a bit and tried to make a variant to make the game a little easier on us, but after a while we realized the game is mostly based on luck…
If you don't know much about the game, I strongly recommend learning about it before reading this section as you probably won't understand much.
- Chernobyl variant
A quick change to the base rules to try to make the game a little easier. - Quarantine variant
Inspired by our reactions to the current pandemic, cities can automatically enter quarantine after outbreaks. - Metro Pandemic
A work-in-progress almost-rewrite of the game where cities are stations and research centers are trains.
