Plague Inc. Evolved By Ndemic Creations

Sorry I didn't manage to post anything this past week-end, it's just be really chaotic with Christmans and all. Here is last Friday's post, better late than never.

Plague Inc. Evolved is a unique mix of high strategy and terrifyingly realistic simulation. Your pathogen has just infected 'Patient Zero' - now you must bring about the end of human history by evolving a deadly, global Plague whilst adapting against everything humanity can do to defend itself.

• Repeatability; The game is fairly repeatable, with many different types of pathogens and mutations. Everything from Viruses to Bacteria to Neurax Worms are included and more are unlocked with every successful ( I guess thats what you'd call it...) destruction of the human race! With multiple difficulty settings, the players can choose whatever settings and styles suit them.  7/10
• Cost; Plague costs seventeen dollars on steam, but is temporarily on sale during the holidays for only fourteen dollars. The game is still in its Beta stage and it is not worth the money entirely, but with a constant stream of updates it's rapidly improving. 4/5
• Predictability; The game is very predictable, and anyone with more than an hour of gameplay experience will quickly notice a pattern and can easily avoid it. 1/5
• Entertaining; The game can be entertaining depending on your attention span (entire levels take half-an-hour on average), players can easily become bored waiting for anything different to happen. In order to unlock different plagues the player must complete a round on medium difficulty at least, and since the game seems top drag on, if you lose and must retry it can quickly become a boring and repetitive experience. 5/10
• Difficulty; As mentioned earlier, patterns are easily noticed by even the most inexperienced eye. Due to such patterns the game can become easy to beat and a player will quickly lose interest. Even on the highest setting a strategic gamer will quickly win, making the game very, very simple. 6/10
• Author Review; I found the game disappointingly simply and easy to beat. Many of the Beta options are still in development, the game would be more entertaining with all the bells and diseases promised. 5/10

Total: 28/50 56% Now I'm running low on good video games to rate, so please leave some comments giving me an idea of what I should do this Friday. Merry Christmas! Airborne Lemming.
