    I work as a nurse, when I was at a Dementia/psych hospital working the NOC shift (Graveyard), it would be my last night on before a two day break. I SO wished I have a one quiet night card to play so I could go home and relax with my fig newtons and scotch. Never worked. In a hospital you never say "Wow it is quiet tonight." In Pandemic you never say "It looks like we might just win this one". Also BTW nurses and doctors LOVE this game.

See the game play in a fun but educational manner. I have even avoiding buying a few games. I find it way more helpful then most written reviews.

    I have this game and the "State of Emergency" expansion, my group of tabletop friends have not yet been able to score a victory. The expansion's addition of a "super bug" makes this game both, much more difficult and much more realistic in these covid-19 times. Despite the eventual losses, we are more determined than ever to replay this game and "save humanity".

  • @NoExitLoveNow
    @NoExitLoveNow 9 лет назад +9

    My experience is that it is important to manage the cards you receive. At some point as soon as you can (sometimes even at the start) you need to get an idea of who is saving what color. If you don't you just end up going through all the cards and losing.
    The goal is to get 5 of each color in a hand and submit them at a research center. You definitely need to manage the infections/outbreaks, but only because if you don't they will get out of hand, and you will either lose because the infections/outbreaks got out of hand, or you will spend all your time/cards chasing the infections/outbreaks and not getting your cures together.
    As long as you get your cures submitted, it doesn't matter the state of the spreading diseases. You win by submitting the cures period.
    The point is that controlling infections/outbreaks is a secondary goal only to the extent that it furthers the goal of gathering and submitting the cures (5 of same color in a hand) at the research station. If you make controlling infections/outbreaks primary you will likely lose.

    • @thisisatonofbs
      @thisisatonofbs 10 лет назад

      lonelongboarder27
      We did. It was just the weird luck of the draws for the epidemic being right near the top of its section and cities with 3 bricks all being near each other. So the infected city count was small, we got the epidemic card early (3 cards in out of I think 15 for the section it was shuffled into) and the cities were all tightly bunched up for the triple spots. So, outbreaks galore.

    • @lonelongboarder27
      @lonelongboarder27 10 лет назад

      Incorrect, depending on how many epidemics you are playing with, you divide the player stack into equal parts and at least for the stack on top you play the epidemic on the bottom of that stack. Sounds like someone shuffled after the fact.

    • @thisisatonofbs
      @thisisatonofbs 10 лет назад +6

      lonelongboarder27
      That must be a rule from the new edition. The version I have says "9. Shuffle an Epidemic card into each pile. Stack the piles on top of each other to form the Player Draw Pile." You'll note that it doesn't specify to put the epidemic at the bottom of the first stack.

Me and two of my friends beat the game on Legendary level! Which is now called Heroic. Luckily, the Epidemic cards were spread out enough to where we had only one outbreak throughout the game. Medic, Quarantine Specialist, and Dispatcher were our roles.

    It's estimated that March Madness will cause a productivity loss of ~$67-200 million this year. These three extended TableTop videos - if all viewed back-to-back-to-back during paid work hours - should add roughly $2-5.6 million to that (math can be provided upon request).

Also, I've only ever been able to juggle up to 5 objects and with more than 3 they all needed to be nearly identical hand-sized objects. I have juggled rings and batons but learning was a bit tricky: I had to learn how to spin/flip them correctly. I am a proud owner of 3 sets of 3 juggling bags that I made myself. :D Yay, I'm... a clown? ;)

    Nice video, really shows how much fun this game is. I like cooperative games in which you can discuss your next moves. You should have put down more research labs in this game session, really helps with moving around on the board. The game is really balanced, for us nearly every session ends with something like "the next card we draw either means victory, or we will lose" - you are never sure if you will win or lose until the very end.

Next player, epidemic. 3rd and final player, at 5 Outbeaks and 6 blue cubes left in the tray, another epidemic!!! We lost by Outbreaks, no blue cubes AND running out black cubes all of a sudden. 3 Round Loss. We did laugh and it was amusing. Took us longer to set up than play.

But you have to be focused on a curing strategy _from the very first turn._ Our heroes got _way_ too caught up in treating infections, to the point where they pulled every cube off of cities they were in (and I'm not talking about Morgan's Medic, here). They also failed to use some critical resources - like looking at the discard pile (which is allowed) to "count" what cities were likely to outbreak and which ones _absolutely could not_ until the next Epidemic. Three of the Roles were non-curative: Medic is a Treatment Role; Researcher _gives_ away cards, which speeds other player's cures, but doesn't help with his own; and Dispatcher is a Support Role with no special ability to cure disease. So they had to be _extra_ careful to not fall behind on cures. Researcher needed to stick to Scientist like glue and feed cards _every single turn._ Scientist could have had two cures by the time Wil and friends had one.
      Also, I felt that there were a few rules subtleties here that were off. Wil seemed to be of the opinion that you can only _give_ cards away on your turn, which isn't true. He had a couple of opportunities to _take any card_ from Robert on his own turn and seemed to think that he wasn't allowed, which he was (not only can you _take_ cards from another player in the same city on your turn that card corresponds to that city…but if the other player is the _Researcher,_ you can take _any_ card from him - one of the few Roles in the game whose power works off-turn).
      They did pretty well, but there were a number of missteps - not curing a cube from Beijing in order to save Wil one movement on his next turn, for example. Or demanding that Morgan play Forecast on _the 5 cards in Wil's hand,_ rather than the six cards she could have scried once Wil set them back atop the deck after shuffling. But the thing they did most wrong was, as you observe, Jao, focusing _way too much on treating cities,_ and not enough on _curing diseases._ :^/
      Still, a heck of a lot of fun watching a great game! I love this episode! :^D

      The sad part is that IRL this "game" isnt that easy, because finding a cure isnt easy and preventing a spreading is hard.
      Making this game more realistic could possibly make it too complicated, but I think there should be an automatic spreading of diseases each turn (as we see from Ebola right now) while making the curing harder. Maybe ... step 1: Get funding, step 2: research and randomly determine success ... and at the same time you have to spend money on containment of the disease.

      Jao Kolad Sorry, Jao…I originally misread what you'd said. I thought you'd said that _curing_ all 4 diseases is "pretty much impossible." Which…my bad. The game would be unplayable if that were true.
      _Eradicating_ 4 is not actually _impossible_ …but it's very close to it. You'd need a couple of lucky early cures and a great draw where everything is close together. Medic and Scientist (in the basic game) would be mandatory. It would be slightly easier in some combos (Archivist/Dispatcher, etc.) in "Over the Brink…" but only if you were playing on Normal, or, at worst, Heroic.

      @ericaschaidt8588 10 лет назад +1

      Eradicating 4 (five in "On the Brink" IS almost impossible without reshuffling unless as you said you get a god draw and things go precisely right.
      Knowing this that you only need to "CURE" them changes things. I just had watched the video and we must have just glossed over that in the rules and "assumed' you had to eradicate the disease. That's what you get for assumptions right? lol

      +TimmyTechTV agreed, he should have used a blue card to fly to Europe and clean up. In the late game only chain outbreaks really matter. They also didn't draw enough blue cards to have a prayer to cure it any time soon.

      Our diseases USUALLY have the same names although thanks to recent events Yellow went from Geriatric herpes to Ebola (because well yah) Black is usually the Zombie Plague. Read is typically SARS, and blue is Herpasyphagonalese. Though now that we have the on the brink expansion that can be the "virulent mutation" strain and blue can be something else like Swine flu or something fun like that.

    I played this with my table-top gamer friends and we lost 3 times in a row, miserably. Played this with my parents and sister(non-gamers and first time playing) and we almost won, we had 3 cures and we were about to cure the last. We just narrowly ran out of time. Just goes to show this is not a game where you have to be a gamer, it's a game everyone can play and enjoy.
