## Plague Inc. Reviews in New Zealand

### ***** "I CANNOT GET MY MONEY BACK"
So I spent my money on THIS GAME AND THE RESTOR BUTTON SO I CANNOT GET MY MONEY BACK But they donate money to sick people
-- IMDONEFOR, 2025-01-06

### ***** "One I come back to regularly … amazing."
This game is the one I keep coming back to.  It is always fun, challenging and thought provoking.  The addons are well worth the money but are not needed to enjoy the base game.  There are regular updates to keep it interesting and when you complete all of the levels… make your own and share them with the community.  There are 100’s of fan made games, levels and diseases to try out.  Educational and just a little twisted… this game is a must play for strategy lovers and those considering world domination.
-- dmosher626, 2024-07-29

### ***** "Classic Must-Buy"
One of the original games for the phone, and it still holds up today as one of the best. Don’t be fooled by the in app purchases, cause everything is unlockable by completing challenges. It’s a strong recommendation to anyone with spare change.
-- PorkFisher, 2024-04-12

### ***** "Great game love it"
Great game love it
-- Taniora007, 2023-10-04

### ***** "Amazing"
This is one of the best games I have ever played
-- Amazing!!.!, 2023-01-13

### ***** "Very pog"
Yes this game Is lowkey poggers very sussy but it lowkey get kinda borin afder a wile but it's very sussy and poggers so "sheeeeesh"
-- amogus weener, 2022-09-09

### ****- "Silent Death"
Great game! Great challengers, but needs more save spaces.
-- Long stride, 2022-09-05

### *---- "Scam!!!!!!!!"
The scenarios I bought ended up not working!. What a scam!
-- Cities-Skylines27, 2021-10-07

### ***** "Holy moly"
Oh boy. This game.
This freaking game.
This game is one of my favourites of all time, along with the command and conquer and civilisation franchises. The mechanics are great, the scenarios are amazing, and the best thing is, once you’ve completed all the standard plague types on brutal, you unlock the special ones. These ones add new symptoms, transmissions, and abilities, and provide a twist to the gameplay that is very satisfying to beat. They also come with a new soundtrack each to top it all off, providing a nice change. Even once you’ve double that, there is the cure mode, scenarios, and custom scenarios. These combine to make a game that is very entertaining, and for a long time too. Overall, this game is a must get.
When it comes to simulators, plague inc. can’t be beat.
-- genral solomon, 2021-09-18

### ***** "Great game"
COVID-19 simulator lol
-- lukechen13, 2021-07-08

### ****- "What?!"
I have had this game for weeks and am loving it however I feel that the game has a hidden system that stops people from winning one example I had was I was doing a fungal epidemic and I almost won as there was 1000 people left then boom my epidemic stopped and keeled over like they found the cure which was impossible as I destroyed all of the known cures in all seperate countries
-- Max miller2, 2021-06-07

### *---- "plague inc"
Brought all the special infections deleted the game and know there gone like what the hell
-- hshfbrbd, 2021-02-28

### ***** "Plague Inc."
Plague Inc. is such a good game and teaches you many things. 
Plague Inc. let’s you do either: Cure Mode or Infection Mode.
-- ilikecheeezey, 2021-01-18

### ***** "This game is perfect"
This game is really goo
-- mrdodoman, 2021-01-08

### ****- "Needs multiplayer mode"
This game is great but it needs a multiplayer mode like two people work together to take over the world or one person is the virus and the other is the cure
-- taj rubert, 2020-12-29

### *---- "I can not beat fungus"
I was haveing lots of fun until I got to fungus It is really hard to beat.
-- funkid 10, 2020-12-17

### ***** "Hours of fun"
Great game with the ability to unlock content free to play which is greatly appreciated
-- Bob official, 2020-11-17

### *---- "Crashes"
The app keeps crashing after this new update when I open it it just crashes I have no clue what’s wrong tried restarting phone
-- jdbsiqndjs, 2020-11-17

### ***** "Nice game"
