  • It feels like they took a lot of the mobile assets and didn't put much care into resizing them for the PC. With that being said, overall, Pandemic is a pretty fun and challenging game that's very topical at this point in time. If you don't have anything else to do right now and are a fan of strategy games, give it a shot and let us know what you think.

  • For better or worse, Pandemic on Switch is little more than a digital recreation of the hit board game that you can enjoy solo or grouped-up. The lack of features, side modes, online play and presentation are disappointing, but at its core this is still one of the more fun cooperative board games I’ve ever played in a compact form on the Switch for a reasonable price. While this isn’t the board game miracle cure, with the right expectations it’ll fix what ails you.

  • It’s a shame that the video game version of Pandemic is disappointing, because the board game itself is a lot of fun. There are tonnes of games that force players to compete against one another, but few require so much teamwork. Heavily focused on strategy, Pandemic encourages players to plan, discuss, maybe argue a little bit, but ultimately combine brain power to solve a big problem. There’s a lot to focus on at one time, but with some practice you and your friend are sure to master it. Just maybe grab the actual board game instead of the console version.

  • Overall, Pandemic on the iPad is a great experience. It may feel like it's lacking in the multiplayer department, but that didn't keep me from having a blast with it. Anyone that's fond of the board game can rest assured that this is a quality version that's worth playing, and for the unfamiliar it's still a great game worth checking out.

  • Whether you are an iOS board game fan or a puzzle game fanatic, Pandemic: The Board Game deserves a look. It is a tight, focused package that demonstrates some of the best that tabletop and iOS design can offer.

  • Pandemic: The Board Game is great. It doesn’t stray from the tabletop version’s awesome gameplay, and expands it a little with the addition of a couple of new characters while adding in the option of flying solo.

  • Pandemic: The Board Game is a perfectly functional version of the popular board game, now available for you to play on-the-go in solo mode or with some friends in local co-op. If this version had included an online component - bringing the co-operative strength of the game to the fore - and perhaps some more engaging means of getting to grips with its rules it would be a much more worthwhile and easy to recommend package. As it stands just now however it feels like a very basic edition with little in the way of options that coasts on the strength of its central component just a little too much.

  • Pandemic is a great port of a co-operative board game port that works fine when played solo, but better when played with friends.

  • Pandemic: The Board Game is a tense and tricky strategy game that's surprisingly well suited to solo play.
