I left out stuff.
I also received Pandemic the board game, which we played like 4 times this past weekend. Also received the Firefly Board Game expansion Kalidasa. Might not play that at all until they release the Whole Damn Verse game mat.
Pandemic is a really good game as far as board games go.
I like co-op board games.
V.s. I tend too get too competitive.
It's good. We are either playing the game wrong or the game is just ridiculously hard. We played 4 times and I think we won once. First time we ran out of cards, second time I think infections spread so hard we ran out of infection markers, third time the outbreak marker reached max. We won the fourth time, but we were playing with 6 people (max is supposed to be 4) and we ended with the outbreak marker at one under the max, we were using 4 epidemic cards instead of 6, and we didn't cheat, but kind of cheated. Right at the end, we knew we were in a scenario where we would likely fail, because the odds were stacked probability wise that we'd fail 3/5 of the time. So we let the person undo a remove infection action and do a move action instead during their turn. We made a decision, basically knocked it down to 2/5 probability we would fail, and decided what we would do and looked at the bottom card of the infection pile to see what the epidemic would cause, basically deciding right there, if it would cause the final outbreak we would quit playing before we draw the epidemic card, we were safe, and the way we would've played we would've remained safe, but I still count it as cheating. We would've won without cheating, but I still think we must be playing wrong, because it's really really hard to win.
