Week 4: The Finale

All good things must come to an end, but saying goodbye can be hard. For our last two games, we played Pandemic within the budget that our instructor set. You can check out the complete price list on Pandemic Blogster's post

Week 3: Money Matters


Before playing another round of Pandemic, our team members sat together to write down specific strategies, roles we've selected, and the reasons for our choice. The game was a smooth win, since we looked at our written notes while playing. After the game, we reflected on the strategies, and the characteristics of leaders and managers. Our instructor then gave us a price list that we are required to follow, for our next game.

Week 2: Now I'm starting to get it




This time we played four games over two weeks, with each member taking turns to lead the game. Our teammate Pandemic World, led the first game. She advised us not to discard City cards for travelling, instead use them to build research stations in each colour. This can make travelling easier for all of us. She also asked us to keep in mind what kind of cards were there in the Infection Discard Pile, since it goes back to the Infection Deck during an Epidemic. Things were looking good. We managed to cure few diseases, until we lost the game due to way too many outbreaks, which had caused a chain reaction, and led to many more.

Week 1: The Beginning


I don't have much experience playing with board games (except Ludo), so I was excited when our instructor announced that we were going to be playing a board game called Pandemic in class for a month. How cool is that!
