Pandemic 2

You control a pathogen, not a person. Your main job is to spread it across a world map and evolve its traits before humanity finds a cure. You click on countries to start infections, then spend points to buy symptoms like coughing or fever. You also invest in transmission methods, making it spread by air, water, or animals. The pacing is slow at first, a quiet tension as you watch colored blots creep across continents. Then it becomes a race. Governments close borders and start research; your disease can suddenly become too lethal, killing hosts before it can jump to new ones. It feels like a grim, quiet puzzle where you are balancing spread against attention.
