Pandemic Legacy: Season 0 review

Pandemic Legacy: Season 0 is a thrilling prequel that takes players on a Cold War spy adventure. As medical graduates recruited by the CIA, you'll travel the globe, uncovering the secrets of "Project MEDUSA," a deadly Soviet bioweapon. The game features a unique blend of espionage and pandemic elements, offering a fresh take on the classic Pandemic formula.

The game mechanics are familiar to Pandemic fans, but with a Cold War twist. You'll use aliases to navigate cities, complete objectives, and neutralize enemy agents. The game's legacy system adds depth, as each session changes the game's rules and conditions.

I really enjoyed the character customization, where you build your agent's profile and acquire contacts. It adds a personal touch to the gameplay. The narrative is engaging, and I loved how it connects to the events of Season 1 and Season 2.

Season 0 is definitely a game for experienced players. It's more complex than the base Pandemic game, but it's also incredibly rewarding. If you're looking for a cooperative board game with a unique story, challenging gameplay, and plenty of replay value, then Pandemic Legacy: Season 0 is a must-have.
