Quarantine

There are no sweeping tales of heroism here, only the cold grind of damage control. Supplies run thin and time runs even thinner. And whenever a tiny blip on the map disappears, the world feels a little smaller.

Not worth it. Plague Inc is way better.

Quarantine takes a different angle on the global outbreak scenario by placing the player not in the role of a survivor or aggressor, but as the coordinator of a worldwide response effort.
