Pandemic Review
Pandemic was my first cooperative game. I had always played games where there was one clear winner and the thought of playing a game that we either all win or all lose was intriguing. It’s a blast playing together in co-op games. I have found that this genre is one that I will play any time the opportunity arises. Playing as a team, working together, and dealing with crisis makes co-op games exciting. However, just because a game is co-op doesn’t mean it’s a good one. Luckily for you, Pandemic is a great one.
Pandemic is just a blast to play. With everyone throwing out opinions on what players should do on their turn and trying to decide the best course of action there is plenty of discussion during the game. There is also the potential issue with one person becoming the leader and making the decisions for everyone’s turn, but in my experience, I have found that people have worked together to win the game.

Ed R (53 KP) rated The Pandemic Plot (Ben Hope #23) in Books
Jul 14, 2021
Quite timely but notuch action
Contains spoilers, click to show
I feel that the book was written specifically to hit publisher targets as it feels quite short and light on the action of normal Ben Hope books along with all the twists. It seemed a very quick book to get to the ending where they discuss how a pandemic could happen today and not just in the past, it's quite timely having a book about a pandemic with what's going on but not a classic Ben Hope book for sure. Hopefully the next one will be better!

Entertainment Editor (1988 KP) rated Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 in Tabletop Games
Mar 7, 2018
REVIEW: PANDEMIC LEGACY SEASON 1 – ONE-TIME EXPERIENCE
Legacy word in the title already suggests something. Its not there only for the purpose of luring players in. It is simultaneously a sticker and inclusion to family of Legacy games, which had so far only one member: Risk Legacy. And if ye had already heard something about it, you understand, that adventure full of twists and unique development awaits you and unique copy of your game will be created during this course.

Probably not the film I should be watching during a pandemic . Some of it reminded me of scenes from my local supermarket at the moment. It's not a bad film overall, the action is plentiful and Brad Pitt makes for an engaging lead. Unfortunately the ending is a bit anticlimactic and low key considering the globe trotting nature of most the film.

Carry on my wayward son...
Final season of Supernatural, badly hit by the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020, and which sees the Winchester brothers facing perhaps their greatest challenge yet: Chuck.
While the finale may be, suffice to say, quite divisive, I actually quite liked it as a coda to the episode before it (and I'm not sure how else they could have ended it).
