About

Plague Inc: Evolved is a biological simulation/strategy game developed by Ndemic Creations.

In Plague Inc: Evolved the player controls a disease, that infects patient zero in a selected country. The player's goal is to infect and kill all the people perfecting the disease and adapting to different conditions.

Initially, more and more people get infected within a country, the disease goes through the borders, carried by animals, birds, insects, transits through blood or on public transport. Random and controlled infections are present in the game. Laboratory accidents could be categorized as random infections while spore activations, zombie dislocation, and trojan planes are controlled by the player.

For infecting and killing humans, the player gets DNA points which are spent buying upgrades for the disease. Disease mutation could also occur. Combo system is present in the game. For example, a combination of vomiting and coughing can mutate into gushing forth vomiting which drastically improves contagiousness.

Player created diseases have three aspects: infectiousness, severity, and lethality. The time for infecting the population is limited as humans may be able to produce a cure.

Plague Inc: Evolved reviews and comments

8.5/10
«Just one more turn»
«Can’t stop playing»
Good game, but getting tired quickly after figure out how to do it.

I now wipe my Mouse and Keyboard with Disinfectants on a Daily basis. ;):D So if you push aside the moral Aspects and just have the Game Goal in Mind, a great game. Especially if you get it reduced from 50%. I'm happy with the Purchase. Addendum from the 31.10.17: After just under 40 Hours of Gameplay, honestly something is the Air out. Have the normal Mode, without Extras now "through" and found it interesting how to approach different Strategies to win. I am still satisfied with the Purchase, because just under 40 Hours of Gameplay for €7 on offer is very good. Another Clue for the Collectors: There are many Achievements to be achieved, which can also be easily unlocked. This is just the latest Clue for those who focus on such Stuff. Conclusion: Good Price-/performance ratio in Terms of cost versus Game time. Bugs/mistakes I didn't have any.

Early Access Review Must-Play for Real-time strategy fans! If a Friend hadn't persuaded me, I would never have spent 10 Euros on it, but now I think it was worth every Penny ... The Goal is noble, because the Extermination of humanity means the Salvation of the Earth:) From a Gameplay point of view, you can already see as a PC spieler that the Game was actually made for touch surfaces-but that's not bad because you can do anything. The Enemy is always research-if it comes to 100%, a Cure is used and all Efforts have been in vain. In the "Main Game" you can play different Pathogens at 4 Difficulty levels, which, however, require fundamentally different Approaches. Among Them are, for example, "Monkey Flu," through which you have to transform The Earth into the Planet of the Monkeys by building monkey Colonies and skilling monkey skills to dodge drone strikes, or to be able to attack Research labs. With the Necro virus, for example, you have to infect as many people as possible (depending on how you play it) and choose the Time of the Transformation in such a way that the other Healthy people have nothing to counter the zombie attacks at the End. From the "normal" stage, you get genes after each successful Eradication, which you can add to your Pathogen before the game to get valuable Bonuses and Boosts that are indispensable at the "Mega-brutal" level. These are a perfect Complement to your own Style of play, because there are almost always several Ways to achieve its Goal. PvP mode leaves something to be desired. Man can currently (04.01.2016) only choose between Virus and Bacteria, but cannot set victory Goals. That is, either you win by infecting all the People (without having to kill them), or you push the Research against the Opponent and win because the other has been cured and you have survived yourself. Unfortunately, Coop is not yet possible. There is still a lot of Potential in there, which I hope will be exhausted. Then there are "official Scenarios" where you can play the Plague, Swine Flu, etc. In the "Speedrun" you play for Time and can capture the Days leading up to The Annihilation of Humanity as an exciter-specific Record and compare it with your Friends.
