Game: Unplagued
“Imagine curing the world’s most horrifying diseases, but half the time you’re the one causing them accidentally.”

Pros:

A unique twist on the pandemic genre: this time, you’re fixing the chaos (or trying to).

The gameplay keeps you on your toes as you balance resources, manage crises, and put out metaphorical fires.

Feels great when you actually save a country instead of, you know, destroying it.


Cons:

One wrong click and you’ve accidentally turned a minor flu outbreak into global chaos.

The tutorial explains just enough for you to fail spectacularly.

Watching a country collapse because you ran out of funding is a special kind of heartbreak.


Personal Experience:

I thought I was a genius when I stopped a virus in one region. Then I ignored another outbreak, and suddenly the entire world looked like a disaster movie. Oops.

Relatable Humor:

Every game: “We’re in control!” Five minutes later: “Why is Greenland ALWAYS the problem?!”

Verdict:

If you enjoy strategy games that test your ability to multitask while making you question your qualifications to run anything, Unplagued is a chaotic and oddly addictive experience. Just don’t expect to save the world on your first try—or your tenth.

Final Score: 8/10. Would accidentally doom humanity again.
