Keep up with current evens (http://www.crazymonkeygames.com/jkf6Tr/pandemic2.swf). Infect Madagaskar or loose. Why does that country only have a port, argh... [:(!]
weird game it is. Played a few rounds but finished only one game. Score was in the 50K region, way below top scores. I wonder what ups the score best.

By finished you mean won? I won one game after a lot of tries. I think it's a lot easier if you can start on Madagascar. I guess games can be quicker then, and you get higher scores.
I've got about 80k, i managed to get madagascar a couple of times but then some other bastard country on an island fannys around.
The game is too much about luck imo- theres no skill at all.
Apart from madagascar and new zealand i managed to wipe out the rest of the world.
23.7M alive vs 6.3B dead is a victory in my mind. Get every single region is just down to plain luck

Do you play the relaxed mode or the normal one?
I got one game where I was stuck on the Americas and then a vaccine was made. Probably worst game ever...

The normal one.
I tried to keep the symptoms as small and minor as possible so they don't start closing borders quickly, but there is a large element of luck involved. In one game i actually got Madagascar infected early on but then i missed rest of Afirca:rolleyes:
I didnt kill the world, but most of it. I wasn't really aiming on a total kill but on a high score.
Playing normal mode as well.

I think you have to keep a low profile (sell all symptoms) and save your evolution points. You'd have to infect Madagascar first, because they close their port the quickest. Rodents help spread through ships; at least that's what I assume, because it makes sense. And I have a suspicion waterborne and moisture resistance are triggers.

It's a boring game - the disease points build up way too slowly in the late game.

here is another version of pandemic. You play the goog guys, but you have to buy it. Great game.
