I see that the official Matt Leacock’s Pandemic boardgame adaptation on Android was abandoned by Asmodee, allegedly due to various quality problems.

There are a few versions floating out there in various apk archives, and even something called “Pandemic” in the Google Play store by some outfit named Seadex that I have no idea whether is anything related to the original boardgame.

Does anyone have a favorite implementation of the Pandemic boardgame they can recommend?

      Plague Inc. comes in at the top of a search in the Play Store for “pandemic” but I understand that it’s kind of a reverse concept of the Pandemic boardgame: You try to wipe out those pesky humans by developing an incurable virus.

      I might be inclined to give it a try if I can’t find a decent implementation of Pandemic.

        I remember playing “Pandemic” as a flash game (or similar) many years ago. Plague Inc seemed to basically be the same game, and I think Pandemic the board game is completely unrelated. Not very helpful for your actual question, but I think it explains the search results.

        There is a mode for Plague Inc where the tables are turned and you try to stop a pandemic, last I played!
