Pandemic! A sample of what the Amazonians are getting

Yeah, yeah so, this is a review that I posted on Amazon.  It's not what the whole BGB (Board Game Blurb) experience is going to be but it should show you what my "flair" and "writing style" will be like.  Enjoy!


Save the world from colored cubes!

It's you and your team of experts against the cubes that represent: The Black Death, Yellow Fever, Blue-bonic plague and Red Cubosis... yeah, I had a hard time thinking up one for red. This is an easy to learn yet challenging cooperative game where everyone has a role to play and can have a lot of fun working together and figuring out a strategy to defeat the diseases. The game works well with any number of players and seemed to me to be easier with two players than with five but just as fun with any number. Of course it is very easy to make the game harder by just adding another epidemic card.

I pulled this game out on three very competitive nephews that love games where you get to crush the other players, and they loved it! They tried very hard to work together and not one of them tried to boss the others around. In fact, they liked it so much that when my wife and I gave it to them for Christmas they started jumping around and singing our praises! Oh yeah, title of most favorite Aunt and Uncle secured. My final words are: A fun cooperative game where you can also brush up on your world geography.
