Plague Inc has been around since 2012, a game in which we have to infect the world by uncontrolled an epidemic to make humanity extinct in the shortest possible time. In March of this year it had a tremendous success, without being free of controversy, although soon after we had a timid module to play «on the opposite bank».
Now, two days ago, they released a huge update with a new mode that further changes the script of their original gameplay.
This is Plague Inc: The Cure, where we must simulate the multifaceted real-life approach needed to stop a pandemic, and it has been based on data received from real experts.
The Cure is presented as a response to our current reality, we must investigate the disease, use techniques such as tracing contacts and develop a vaccine.
Important: it should not be taken as a scientific model, but it gives an idea of the type of response required to stop something like COVID-19.
Ndemic announced a couple of donations in March to the Coalition for Innovations in Epidemic Preparedness (CEPI) and the World Health Organization (WHO) to help in the relief efforts of COVID-19, an important action of a game that seemed to be «the dark side of force».
Plague Inc: The Cure will be free «until COVID-19 is under control». At the moment it is on iOS and Android, and they are already preparing versions for PC and console.
