Their goal: to be the first team to find all four cures, or to be the last team still alive at the end of the game.<\/p>\n<p>In this tournament-style version of the game \u2013 that cannot be found anywhere else \u2013 all teams will face the same problems: their player cards will all be placed in the same order before the game; the infected cities are the same for everyone; the Epidemics strike at the same time for all teams; every team has the same role cards. The only difference is the decisions they will make! Their strategic choices will lead each team in different directions, and one strategy will pay off in the end and lead to victory. The game master will call out the Infection cards, while other scour the tables to see if any of the team have succumbed to the Pandemic.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.euroquestcon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/pandemic-overview-shot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2095\" src=\"http:\/\/www.euroquestcon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/pandemic-overview-shot-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"pandemic overview shot\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/pandemic-overview-shot-300x200.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/pandemic-overview-shot.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You will never know what other teams are up to, because a screen separates each board, immersing you in your own game.<\/p>\n<p>Different strategies will emerge, but which one will lead you to victory?
