## Description

Product Description Pandemic: On the Brink From the Manufacturer Has saving humanity become routine? Spice Pandemic up with new roles and events. Add a fifth player, try Legendary difficulty, or add an optional challenge: What if one disease is particularly nasty? Or, if a fifth disease is wreaking havoc? Or, even worse, if that fifth disease is being spread by a hidden Bio-Terrorist? Can your team work together to cure diseases in a world on the brink of disaster?

Review: Great Expansion to a Great Game - This expansion makes an already great game even more fun. It adds new character classes, new event cards, and new game types and scenarios. My biggest issue with the base game, Pandemic Board Game , was that I often had five people who wanted to play, but I was limited to four players. This is fixed here, with the addition of new role and event cards and a couple extra rules. Hurray! There are several new game modes to provide an extra challenge. These are all great fun, but the biggest change is the "Bioterrorist Mode," which switches this from a straight co-op game to a cooperative competition between the bioterrorist and the CDC team. This is a crazy-fun game mode that has the main CDC team torn between the regular outbreaks and trying to stymie the new strain unleashed by the bioterrorist character. It can get very hectic, and it is very fun. This expansion also serves as an improved storage vessel for the game, with little petri dishes for storing your disease cubes (fun!) and little nooks and crannies built into the box for storing all the other pieces. If you enjoyed Pandemic, you will love this too.
Review: High quality game in concept and materials - This is hands down my favorite board game. Even with just the base, there is no getting bored of the gameplay and it’s never the same game twice. My favorite items of this expansion pack are the petri dishes, new roles, and the bioterrorism challenge. Definitely worth the money if you love the base. They even include a customizable role and event card. Thanks to the shortcut/move cards they include for each player, a potentially complicated game becomes straight-forward and simplified for almost anyone to learn. Even if you’re an expert at the base game, this add-on could take some getting used to on your first play so grant it it’s well deserved time and don’t rush through it. Fun game to play by yourself, but personally I find two players is ideal. Can’t wait to collect all the expansion packs!

## Features

- RAISE THE STAKES: Elevate your Pandemic experience with the On the Brink Expansion, introducing new challenges that test your disease-fighting skills.
- UNEXPECTED TWISTS: Prepare for the unexpected as diseases evolve and someone may intentionally spread them. Face three unique challenges that evolve base game mechanics.
- VARIETY AND TEAMWORK: Enjoy even more variety with seven new roles and eight event cards. Experiment with strategies and improvisation as you tackle global infections.
- BIO-TERRORIST: Test your teamwork and strategy as a fifth player becomes the Bio-Terrorist, spreading panic secretly across the board.
- LEGENDARY DIFFICULTY: For the ultimate challenge, add the Epidemic card and tackle Legendary difficulty with seven Epidemic cards, pushing even experienced players to their limits.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have the 1st edition of the base game, can I play with the 2nd OTB or do would i need to buy the 2nd edition of the base game as well?**
A: No you can't . The 2nd edition cards have a different look to them. If you go to zman games they have a conversion card set. To make the first edition base set compatible with the 2nd edition OTB. and vis versa. It runs I think $20.00 it adds the 2 new role cards that are added to the 2nd edition base set and the new card look.

**Q: I understand that five players can play with this expansion set.  Are there multiple roles for the fifth player or must you use the bioterrorist?**
A: You can play without the bioterrorist, using five players. "5-Player Game: Pandemic can be played with 5 players. During setup, deal a Role card to the 5th player and 2 Player cards (as with 4 players) to each player."

**Q: The 1st edition of On The Brink came with petri dishes to store your wooden disease cubes. Does the 2nd edition include these?**
A: Yes

**Q: Why is the picture in Spanish? Is the game in Spanish? I need an English edition.**
A: I ordered the "On the Brink" expansion from Amazon and received the English language version even though the picture shows the Spanish version. I have no idea why the Spanish version is pictured.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you can only afford 1 expansion for Pandemic, this is the one to buy
*by T***S on June 7, 2016*

Pandemic is one of my favorite games and does not need to be expanded. However, if you feel like the game is a little stale like you've played it so many times that you need new challenges or just something a little different, this is almost a must-have expansion. In this box are several new role cards, a 5th infection cube color, a 1-vs-all variant, cards to make a disease tougher, and a box insert that lets you store the base game, this expansion and the 2nd expansion: "In the Lab" (fitting all 3 expansions with the base game is quite difficult). The 5th cube color is used in 2 new game variants: bio-terrorist and mutations. The 1-vs-all variant has everyone trying to win the game while a bio-terrorist player is also infecting locations. The mutation variant adds a few cards to the player deck and a few cards to the infection discards and drawing one of those cards will add purple cubes to the board. Curing the purple disease is a little harder since there are half of those cubes than the original 4 colors. This expansion has Virulent Strain epidemics that can replace your epidemic cards. Instead of just following the basic 3 actions of an epidemic, you now have a new ongoing- or one-time effect like "remove 4 infection cubes from the virulent strain supply". You determine which disease has the least cubes available and dub it the virulent strain the first time you have an epidemic and will make curing that disease harder. The game comes with more events, roles, and a few blank role and event cards. With all the new events comes a new method in using them: 2 cards per players get shuffled into the player deck before dealing cards. I like the new roles, the new events, and the virulent strain variant a lot. The bio-terrorist has been played once in the ~100 times I've played with this expansion but everything else in the box has definitely been worth buying. If you can only afford 1 expansion for Pandemic, this is the one to buy. I recommend this expansion above the other 2; then "In the Lab" and "State of Emergency" last. (However, all 3 expansions are great and have new variants well-worth the money.)
