Has anyone played this yet? Its diabolical (very hard to win). My husband and I love it. Can't wait for the expansion.

I know there's a fair amount of discussion about it in one of the other threads HERE. |

I have played this one a few times it's a great co-operation game - that is if you can cooperate my wife and often tend to disagree on the strategy.
The virus can often get on top of you very fast so you have to work really hard and at times you're just not going to win.
I too am looking forward to the expansion (Pandemic on the brink). In fact made a special trip to games store - more than an hours drive as they indicated it was available only to find it had not arrived - never mind walked out with an Alhambra expansion instead.

So, how has this expansion been received? Anyone played it yet? I am still looking forward to playing the original... Joff, was that card set you showed pictures of an official expansion or something of your creation?

I think the expansion adds a lot to the game, both in terms of variety and replayability. Thumbs up from me.

I personally like Forbidden Island over Pandemic. It is also cooperative win game but is much easier to follow, as well as being smaller in size which makes it much more portable and cheaper. If u like Pandemic, I highly recommend you check it out.

Played it once, and never again. Co-op is not ment for me. I want to beat the other players at the table ... not the game  |
