One of the things I like best about Iberia is that at the end of the game you have not only treated diseases but you have visibly built infrastructure. Somehow this feels like a greater achievement leading to extra satisfaction at a job well done. The abilities of many of the characters are very different to what we were used to in the core games. My favourite too.

Iberia is my favorite game ever. I just finished a game and was thinking/wishing there was a variant where after you research all the diseases you could start to clear them from the board. It could be like a second round with new rules. I would absolutely love to see any expansion for this game whatsoever.

I think season 1 is way better than 2. I think the narrative pacing in season one is much tighter and therefore more satisfying. The trust they give the player - and their ability the exact right amount curious and motivated by the secrets- in 2 means it’s easy to have games with low progress. I think also the balance of any individual itself goes a bit wonky too
@S0nyb1ack4 жыл бұрын
I agree on the pacing completely... But I have to say I loved that the 2nd one fealt a bit more "open", I really liked having more control about how much discovering the players wanted/could afford to do, but that was a double edged sword, since it probably also caused the pacing "issue". However - not a Pandemic game, but Clank! Legacy has finally managed to combine both the freedom and GREAT story pacing. I would strongly recomend it to anybody who likes legacy games and I've played it a lot even after the campaign ended, in my opinion the best legacy game currently out there :)

True story btw: I was going to trade my copy of Agricola for a duplicate copy of Iberia that someone owned. Only caveat was that I couldn't let the trader have any of the pieces to Agricola because my kid liked playing with them so much. So I told the Iberia fellow I'd do the trade if he could supply his own meeples and resources (for which, upgraded pieces are easy to find). So during one of our monthly game sessions, I gave him the stripped down copy of Agricola and he said he'd bring his extra copy of Iberia in next month. I told him no big deal if he brought it or not! I never did get that copy of Iberia :(

I steered clear of Rising Tide for so long because I heard it was mediocre at best. I picked it up on a whim for $15. After 20 or so plays I can say it is easily my favorite Pandemic. It really is the perfect balance of Splotter and Pandemic. The spatial aspects of the flowing water, pumping stations, and dike system are genius. The variable objectives keep the game fresh and allow for a smooth, customizable, scaling difficulty. It is also the most difficult in series, which I appreciate. I would rather a co-op game be too difficult on "standard" difficulty than too easy. Don't sleep on Rising Tide. It is a gem.

I have not played anything Pandemic. I do plan on eventually playing all of the seasons though. What I ask is, Would it be reasonable to start off with Season 1? Or should I get the base game first? I'm just thinking, with about ten games in a season, that's 30 plus games right there. And if I plan on jumping into that relatively quickly anyways, should I just skip the original and go season 1? The seasons are not replayable is the problem. But I'd have 30 games to go through before that becomes a problem. Also I wouldn't be able to play a casual, or solo, game of pandemic between Campaign sessions. Is the pandemic app a good implementation to fill that hole? Thoughts?

Thank you so much, Zee, for doing this. For the first time, I have a real sense of what makes each of these good and bad. I have not played the base Pandemic game. When I bought my first Pandemic, I bought Pandemic the Cure. We enjoy that, but usually it’s just my wife and I playing. So we have other games that we feel are better for two people. However, I recently purchased Pandemic Iberia with the idea that if we didn’t like it, I could always sell or trade it later. We have not tried it out yet, but now I definitely I have to get it to the table. Because we play mostly two player, especially nowadays, do you feel Pandemic and Pandemic Iberia work well for 2, or do you really need to have more people to enjoy the game?

Lots of variants, which add to the replay factor, very challenging, and a very beautiful game aesthetically. Excellent game. I wish they made expansions for it, or made a digital version for it. We play The Cure all the time too, especially when we are short on time. But Iberia is far superior. Enjoy!

I really liked the idea of "The Lab" but I found the necessity of being in a research facility in order to perform a lab action rather cumbersome. There isn't enough time to fight the diseases AND regularly return to the research facilities to do lab stuff. In addition to that, the process of finding the cures takes longer which always resulted in almost certain defeat. At least, that's what my group experienced. Has anyone else experienced this (or maybe the opposite)? We houseruled that 1 lab action can be performed for free every turn. That shifted the gameplay experience from "nearly impossible" back to "fairly challenging".
@mattchild34354 жыл бұрын
In my experience with the Lab Challenge, I think failing happens when forgetting how much this variant depends on cooperative play. Oftentimes, each player will get stuck thinking about how he or she will individually contribute to the cure and forget about setting up other players to do way more on his or her turn. This shows up a lot when players abandon the Share Knowledge action, which is still extremely important, but now moreso for effective use of actions and timing. I also think a good amount of difficulty is added when the team doesn’t build a second research station within the first round of turns and then use early actions to Sequence a Disease to get favorable sequence cards. This will give a much easier path to follow regarding both treatment and card usage.

I think Pandemic: Rapid Response really missed a trick by forcing the real time component to be turn based. You know how you completely ameliorate the alpha gamer in a real time game? Have everybody take their turns SIMULTANEOUSLY. It's baffling they made the turn based decision when games like Escape: Curse of the Temple show how well simultaneous realtime coops can work. We love games like Escape so much that we picked this up and house ruled it. You unfortunately have to really mess with the time and difficulty to make it feel right (it's obviously not balanced to work with simultaneous turns), but once we got it feeling right, it is SOOO much better.
