Pandemic (English)

Q: What's the youngest age you'd recommend to play?

The box says 8+, the Amazon description says 13-15. The expansions all are 13+, so maybe that's why Amazon is confused. We haven't played any of the expansions yet, but my 5yo and 8yo both love Pandemic. We got it shortly after the 5yo's birthday, and at first it was kind of frustrating at times when he'd insist on doing something completely illogical, but he's gotten better in the past half year. That said, he reads way above grade level, so 8+ is probably a better idea - you want the kid to be able to read the names of the cities, etc. I wouldn't buy the game if you only have kids under 8, unless they're profoundly gifted - we got it for the 8yo, and the 5yo just happened to be able to go along, but there are games that would be more suitable for his age - he isn't yet really able to strategize at the level needed for Pandemic. And really, saving the world can wait until the ripe old age of 8. ;)

Q: How long does a typical game of Pandemic take to play?

I think 45-60 minutes with a strong team who knows the game is a good estimate. The first games with new players will take a while, even on easy, because there are a lot of little nuisances and details to learn... and if you're playing with a few different strong personalities, you may loose time to discussing the best tactics and strategies. When my husband and I play, 45 minutes is a good estimate, but we also work well together and know the rules of the game.

Q: Would like a good two person game. Is this it?

After 7 plays as a 2-player game, I'd say it plays very well. I'd also say that I disagree with those who say it is harder as a 2-player game. Each player has more influence over decisions and potentially twice as many turns as they would get in a four-player game. So in some ways it could be a tad bit easier. The amount of epidemic cards are more of a factor in the difficulty than how many players are in the game. The infections and epidemic cards will come out at a rate irrelevant to how many players are in the game. And one of the game-ending triggers is when all of the player cards are drawn - and that is based on how many turns are taken, regardless of how many different players are taking turns. The disadvantage of playing a 2-player game would be missing out on larger group discussions and interaction. But it's really not a big deal. You will still find this game a great value if you play 2-players 90% of the time and 4-players 10% of the time. That is the situation I am in and I recommend the game.
