    The most fun you can have destroying civilisation without becoming a government MP, Plague Inc. refines the Pandemic formula into a streamlined combination of strategy and twisted bio-horror.

    Plague Inc even has a sense for the importance of meta-game progression. Pandemic has special traits you unlock for later games, but Plague Inc gives you entirely new "classes" to unlock and play, starting with a hearty bacteria and progressing all the way up to manufactured bioweapons.

    From where we stand, it's a smartly designed and at times uncomfortable video game that's definitely worth $0.99. If anything, it'll make you think twice about rubbing your eyes after touching a doorknob.

    While Plague Inc. isn't ground-breaking iOS game, it's definitely one of the most refined. With features like self-mutating viruses, government collapses that actually effect the spread through a given country, unlockable virus classes, and an honest to goodness save feature (yay!), this is the apocalypse plague game to get.

    Plague Inc. reminds you in its own little way just how fragile yet tenacious humans are. Be a real shame if anything were to happen to them.

    Original and filled with black humour, Plague Inc. is a coherent and engaging strategy game, which compensates an essential presentation with a great amount of content for its small price.

    I had a hard time putting Plague Inc down, despite the game's copious amounts of downtime and bare-bones presentation. It's exhilarating (in a grim way) to see your rate of infection climb into the billions thanks to perfect planning, and then mutate in killer traits like Pneumonia and Fever to secure the end of human history.

To be honest, to get the full experience, you need to get the scenarios pack, but just that extra $2.99 will make the game amazing. As it claims, it is "hyper" realistic. Based on a country's economy, it affects how the disease infects in that country, how much they can contribute to the cure, etc. The population is very accurate too. Something that makes it much more realistic is the severity, which makes countries want to contribute to the cure. It also shows how if a disease is too lethal, it can't spread.… Expand

    Plague.inc è senza dubbio un ottimo gioco, dal concept innovativo e dalle varie possibilità di gioco dovute dalle differenti caratteristichePlague.inc è senza dubbio un ottimo gioco, dal concept innovativo e dalle varie possibilità di gioco dovute dalle differenti caratteristiche delle patologie proposte. Meccaniche semplici ed intuitive celano un alta necessità di mentalità strategica da parte del giocatore, che deve saper contenere o sprigionare le potenzialità dell'agente patogeno che si ritrova a controllare, evolvendolo ed involvendolo. Trovo però che la visione complessiva del gioco sia compromessa dal fatto che, dopo aver vagliato tutte le casualità possibili offerte dall' IA, si percepisce una certa ripetitività nelle partite. Ciò è parzialmente risolto dagli scenari, che però necessitano una pagamento aggiuntivo per essere riscattati nella loro totalità (La convenienza dell'acquisto non rientra nel campo di questa recensione).

    Trovo una valutazione di 8,5 sufficiente, arrotondato ad 8 per l'espressione in decimi.    … Expand
