Plague Inc: The Cure (DLC)

If you have already played Plague Inc: Evolved and you are tired of being the villain, this expansion is for you. Now you sit on the other side of the table: the job is not to spread the disease but to stop it before it takes out a whole city. The mood is calmer and more anxious at the same time, since every call about borders or testing can cost someone their job. The highlights: - The first evenings go to hunting patient zero: you send research teams out and find out the outbreak started earlier than you thought. - The trade-off between health and money feels real here: close borders too early and the economy slumps, too late and you lose whole regions. - The vaccine will not appear by itself: you plan its production and distribution, and persuade countries to work together along the way. - The familiar Plague Inc formula gets a fresh angle, and it is fun to play it with a friend who is used to being the virus. The expansion is sold as a Steam gift: we add you as a friend via a quick invite link and send the game as a gift to your account. The base game Plague Inc: Evolved must be on the account. Can you save the world? Take control and stop a deadly global pandemic by any means necessary. Allocate resources to boost testing capacity, make facemasks compulsory, lock down countries or investigate experimental treatments in Plague Inc.’s biggest expansion ever!
