As a newcomer you have to provide the with a bacterium that other pathogens (virus, fungus, parasite, prion, nano-virus and Bio-weapon) you have to unlock first. As a special you can earn a Neurax worm itself also.
The game is played in three different levels of difficulty (Casual, Normal and Brutal) which differ in whether people wash their hands, whether sick people still looking for body contact and how much the doctors work. In easiest difficulty of winning is a cinch, in normal mode already a real challenge.
With repeated successes also gene modifications (quasi powerups) are unlocked, give the a wide variety of benefits. A maximum of 5 such modifications can be used simultaneously.
After starting the game you have to first select a starting country. It is recommended that a possible highly populated and poor country at the same time pick (China and India), because the disease can quickly spread to as many people here. The more people become infected, the more DNA points you get. With these you can continue to develop and strengthen its excitation for example the transfer options, the symptoms or the resistance of the pathogen.
It is important not to make the exciting beginning to threatening is because the sooner will begin research against him. Songs should improve the robustness and the transferability and only if as many are infizert, exacerbate symptoms. In addition to the possibility of changing over the DNA points his active agents, these mutated without fault of their own - that's for good (because it costs no DNA points), but can also hurt when the excitation is thus too fast too aggressive ,
The game is played on a world map, showing the different regions of the world and displays with more becoming red dots, as infected is a country.
Infected and the dead are represented as simple numbers, showmanship with any representations of sick or dead, there is not. This makes the game because even despite the macabre game principle bearable and reasonably good conscience playable. It might as well go to a computer virus here.
The app asks no privileges and no space. Unfortunately, it is entirely in English, so here good English skills - after all symptoms are explained in English, etc. ... good school English but enough of. Impatient can buy extensions via InApp purchase and must not be free to play.
The game makes you feel good and overall is the low price a real buy recommendation.
