Plague Inc: Evolved Reviews

Fun to burn some time. I came back to it recently after many years of not playing. The game is more complicated than you think, it doesn't really explain some of the underlying game mechanics such as higher severity giving you more DNA points for infects. Many custom scenarios to try as well.

Perfect mix of fun and wanting to rip my hair out. Awesome if you want to fuel your evilest, intrusive thoughts or give yourself an anxiety attack about the realistic possibility of your disease becoming real. 10/10

Plague Inc is a classic mobile game, fun timewaster, and gem of the play store. So, of course, it's likely to be a bad game on Steam and better on phone. Happy to say this: it's not. Plague Inc. Evolved features tons of new content, including a new "Cure" DLC that lets you play as the WHO and try to stop a disease while pushing back potential riots and enforce a lockdown. More content includes tons of fun scenarios, lots of customization for your game, and generally just a better experience from the one you might be used to. Don't be fooled, this IS the same game you have on your phone, and it IS free on Android with ads. But for a $10 package with more content? This is great, well worth the investment.

Awesome game, I keep coming back to it to see if I can complete the missions faster.

As maddeningly random as the original Flash game, only now it's Greenland instead of Madagascar that'll drive you crazy.

Its ok, got decent replay value. but buy on sale, dont pay full price!

The PC version is a massive disappointment. As others have mentioned, the game's difficulty curve is in overdrive causing even casual/normal rounds to require extreme luck in order to succeed. Having even on symptom causes the disease to be noticed and research will start almost immediately and it takes very little time to complete followed by a week to inoculate the entire planet. Those of us who lived through the last few years can attest that that does not happen in reality which is what the game was originally pitched on; mimicking real world scenarios and procedures including corroboration with the CDC. I originally played this game on mobile and was able to clear everything on at least the top two highest difficulty settings. That version of the game also entailed strategies more tailored to individual disease types as opposed to having a single strategy that's used for everything. I used to enjoy this game but the RNG is insane and the humans close down ports to stop a disease that solely causes a cough or a sneeze. If you're a fan of the mobile version stick with that. The PC port has nothing to offer.

Man I love when Greenland closes all its borders and they remain the sole survivors of the whole world

This game has so much potential and is super fun for a single player game so awesome
