Pandemic sets you and your friends the unenviable task of managing an epidemic. Taking on a specialist role with a unique power, you travel the world trying to effective combat outbreaks and cure the disease. Pandemic spawned a number of games based on the original game. Hot Zone - North America captures the essence of the full game in 20 minute play sessions, whereas Rising Tide, Reign of Cthulhu and The Fall of Rome all add thematic twists on the gameplay. Arguably the most well known tweak is the Legacy games. Legacy games are designed to be played as a campaign where a story evolves over the course of the game, with new rules and gameplay elements added as you go. Lots of this content will be hidden in sealed boxes that you open as you play. Most legacy games include 'destructible' elements such as stickers or writing on the board or pieces, or even tearing up cards, permanently altering the game. Pandemic Legacy was one of the first of these types of games and was met with huge success. The game allowed a story to develop that delivered twists and turns and was continued in the second game - Season 2. Pandemic Legacy 0 takes us back in time to the Cold War. Players are recruited by the CIA to investigate a Soviet bioweapon nicknamed 'Project MEDUSA'. Due to the theme you will not only be combating the pathogen but also enemy agents who seek to disrupt your work and cause world chaos. As it is a prequel you do not have to have played the previous Pandemic Legacy games to enjoy Season 0 but be warned - you may end up buying the other two after completing this one.Player count: 2-4Time: 45-60 minutesAge rating: 14+\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Z-Man Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56049819910522,"sku":"ZBG-ZMG7174","price":45.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/Pandemic-Legacy-Season-Zero.jpg?v=1760983638"},{"product_id":"pandemic-hot-zone-north-america","title":"Pandemic: Hot Zone - North America","description":"\u003cp\u003eTEAM UP TO FIND A CURE From designer Matt Leacock, Pandemic: Hot Zone - North America is a completely cooperative game in which players win or lose as a team.

Instead, you're in a mega plane that can dispense vital aid all over the world. To do so, players will roll dice against the clock in order to meet the specific needs of various cities around the world. This is a real time co-operative game from Kane Klenko, who has previous experience with real time dice games in FlatlineFuse.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe game comes with some gorgeous marbled dice and the usually array of recognisable city cards and characters with unique powers. The board represents the inside of your plane and around the outside is the track that shows you where in the world you currently are. Inside the plane you are resented by a pawn in the same colour as your dice. On your turn you roll your dice,  with up to two re-rolls, and use them for various actions. You can use any icon to move into an adjacent room, the plane icon can be used to move the plane and drop supplies and the rest of the icons are all linked to one of the five machines.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo place a dice and use the machine you must be in the same room. Each machine has similar placement rules with a certain amount of dice having to be placed at once ranging from 1-3. Once you have met a certain level the machine produces a cargo cube which you move to the cargo bay. A quick roll of the dice used will tell you how much waste is generated. Waste is one of the ways you can fail the game, the other is running out of time.\u003cbr\u003e\nEach player will get ample opportunity to be involved due to the turn like structure of Rapid Response. Multiple players can contribute to the same machine, so you have to work out whether you best efforts are spent helping at the same machine or wondering off to do something else. Completing a city gives you extra time whereas having to turn over the egg timer results in another city card being played to the board for you to help. Once you are used to saving the world you can add in challenge cards for extra difficulty.\u003cbr\u003e\nPandemic: Rapid Response is a different take on a familiar world, but one that is true to its roots.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlayer Count: 2-4 Age: 8+\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Z-Man Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56049885184378,"sku":"ZBG-ZMGZM011","price":31.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/Pandemic-Rapid-Response.jpg?v=1760983935"},{"product_id":"pandemic-the-fall-of-rome","title":"Pandemic: The Fall of Rome","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- wp:fl-builder\/layout --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the height of its power, the Roman Empire held more than two million square miles of territory containing over a hundred million people.

By the beginning of the 5th Century, decades of political corruption, economic crisis, and an overburdened military had exacted a severe toll on the stability of the Empire.

You will need to collect cards to move around the world map and help out at cities that need it the most. You will also need to manage the ongoing threat as too many outbreaks can mean game over... man. Pandemic Legacy Season Two continues the story 71 years after the events of the first game. Legacy games are games that play out in a campaign over multiple play sessions. Legacy games often include destructive elements too, meaning you can only play through once, as you will tear up and destroy components. However this is more than made up for by the experience of discovery the story together.Season One was set in the same time period as the original game, basically around now. Season Two moves things to the near future which means they can play with the rules even more. As you play through the game the rules will evolve as well as the story. This is all kept in order with a handy rule book and stickers that go in the correct places.Pandemic Legacy is a game worth experiencing by everyone.

Cultists spread their evil across Arkham, Shoggoths slither around the streets and beyond the gateways lie the old ones ready to destroy everything. In Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu, players take on the role of an investigator, perhaps the detective, hunter or doctor among others. Each role has their own special ability to help in the fight against the coming darkness. Cultists spread and complete summoning rituals and reveal the Ancient Old Ones. In a single game there are six who will be revealed each with a game changing effect, but if the seventh summoning occurs the final ancient one awakens, Cthulhu and destroys the world. Cultists aren't the only ones spreading destruction across Arkham, Shoggoths slither through the streets towards the gateways that the players need to close. When they go through an ancient one follows, summoning more evil to the world. Shoggoths are not to be taken lightly; they can drive any player insane. Investigators must collect enough clues from each area of the board to seal the gates, once the fourth is sealed they win the game. They will have some help along the way, in the form of artefacts. Some might fight against insanity, others might stop the ancient one and still others may help move cultists or investigators around. Can the investigators stop the cultists summoning rituals or the Shoggoths before Cthulhu awakens to drive the world insane before destroying everything, or will they be driven to insanity before they get the chance? Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu is a challenging game based on the classic Pandemic Game mixed with the rich world of H. P.

With no cure to be had, the one of you that wipes out all human civilisation will come out on top as the most deadly disease ever known to man, may he rest in peace. Pandemic: Contagion includes a deck of contagion cards with differing colored borders, city cards with similar colored borders, event\/WHO cards, player disease card and disease cubes. On a turn you take two of three possible actions, and you can take the same action twice. Those actions are: Draw contagion cards equal to your current incubation rate. Advance one of three mutations to the next level. Spread disease equal to your current transmission rate. When the number of diseases equals the city's population number, the city is wiped out. The player who placed the final disease earns a special action. The player with the most diseases scores the population number. The two smaller numbers are awarded to those with the second- and third-most diseases. Your disease card has three mutations: Incubation (number of cards you can draw), Transmission (number of disease cubes you can spread), and Resistance (number of cubes\/cards you can protect). As an action, you can advance a mutation one level by discarding the required number of cards. Event cards are drawn at the start of each round and affect everyone during their turn. You might benefit from the card or it could have a negative impact. WHO cards are always bad, but your resistance will lessen whatever the penalty would be based on its level, if you planned ahead.

The goal of Pandemic, from Z-Man Games, is relatively simple. Work together to find the cure for each of the four diseases before time runs out. Seems simple? Well, not so fast soldier! Pandemic is a co-operative game where you must work together to identify and carry out the best strategy to getting the cures, while also fighting off the disease, managing its spread and keeping track of which cities could be infected next. Use your specialists strengths and skills to your advantage to stop the disease from taking over. Each turn, a player can utilise a multitude of actions, from moving to different cities, tackling the disease head on, building the vital research centres or finding that precious cure by discarding five disease cards. As the game progresses, the spread of the disease gets larger and the chance of an Epidemic occurring increases. Perhaps the most revolutionary element of this game is the Epidemic mechanic. Draw an epidemic card from the pile and you will infect a completely new city with three cubes, putting it on the verge of outbreak. The infection rate increases and the disease also intensifies, meaning the previously drawn \"Infect City\" cards are shuffled and put back on top of the deck, laying in wait to be drawn and infect at a greater rate. If you and your team manage to keep on top of the ever-growing infection and manage to find those all important cures, you can officially call yourselves disease control specialists. Fail however, and you will find the world at the mercy of all four diseases, with little else that can be done to save humanity. Pandemic is an absolute staple, a go-to game for any avid board game player and an essential for any board game collection!
