How To Win | Plague Inc. |

Plague inc. is a popular strategy game by Ndemic Creations. The point of the game is to strategically evolve your plague to become a highly infectious, killer that infects then kills the entire world population.

The game is realistic in the sense that all symptoms of the plague are real life based, and the spread of the plague is simulated based on what would happen in a real life situation. There is governments that will try and make a cure, and news events that happen constantly all over the world.

How To Win:

What you will need: 

• Patients, to wait until you have infected most of the world
• A good starting country. The best countries to start in are: Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, UK,  China, Iraq, Mexico.
• Know what killer symptoms you will buy: organ failure, necrosis, ect.
• How to stop the cure: Click Here To Learn How To Stop The Cure
• Know the symptoms: Full Guide Here
• A good strategy. 
• Evolve the lethality, infectivity & severeness of your plague without causing panic around the world.

To be able to win in Plague Inc. you need a strategy. Without a strategy you will struggle later on in the game. Make your own strategy by learning the symptoms. I have made a "symptom manual" that you can find on this site. 

Also, make sure you know what kind of plague you are using. Every type of plague acts very different and to win you will need to customize your strategy. 

Make sure you infect every country. People have trouble infecting islands because they have no land borders. 

Places like Greenland are the hardest to infect. To learn how to infect them every time: Click Here

Basic Strategy | Symptoms

1. General Guide - Basic Strategy

---

This is a very "basic" guide. This means that it will not work 100% and is just to teach you the basics of symptoms. The rest of this manual will work 100%, if done correctly. But this general guide is for educational, not game-play purposes.

Starting Out. (Experienced Players May Skip)

Once you have selected

A Plague Type    then  Game Difficulty   and typed you  Plague Name (ElderGeek)

you select your  DNA Code

and hit start!

Welcome To Plague Inc.!

After touching a country, your disease will start in patient 0.

The picture to the right displays my disease "ElderGeek" starting in USA.

Collect DNA points, and play the game.

Symptoms Role (Experienced Players May Skip)

Symptoms are one of the three important places you spend "DNA" points in the game. 

They change your disease by altering how it effects its infected.

Each symptom is a "trait" of your disease and allows for different effects to happen in the humans that come across your disease.

"Core Disease Stats" are increased through purchasing or "evolving" symptoms.

The three Core Stats are:

// Infectivity // Severity // Lethality //

We will touch on all three later on, scroll down in the manual to view or click here.

How To Evovle

Increase Infectiviy:

Start out by increasing infectivity. This is important. You want to infect everyone in the world, or else you will not be able to kill them and complete the plague.

Infectivity can be increased very early in the game by purchasing one of the "Path Traits" as I call them. 

"Path Traits" is not a official term, it is just my name for naming strategies.

The 5 path traits are:

   Coughing Path 

          Nausea Path 

          Rash Path 

          Insomnia Path 

          Cyst Path - (Not in here, part of next path)

          Anemia Path

Gain Points, Kill Steady

DNA points are important. Save them to buy more symptoms. 

Transmission and Abilities are very important in the game as well, DO NOT FORGET to use them as well as symptoms. This is a manual for symptoms only, so this guide focuses primary on the title; this makes it not a 100% guide.

When you have infected most of the world with traits like:

coughing, sneezing, pneumonia, nausea, vomiting, ect.

Then you can start destroying the human race, one country at a time.

The more effective symptoms to focus on are:

Total Organ Failure (Quickest Deaths)

Coma (Quick Deaths)

Insanity (Slows cure, increases transmissions, causes deaths)

Necrosis (Dead bodies spread disease, normal speed deaths)

Fever (For poor countries)

Immune Suppression (For Rich Countries)

Up to 60% infected in the world you want to keep your infection rate higher than your death rate at all costs.

If not, you may wipe yourself out by killing all of your hosts before the world is entirely infected.

Do not worry about this past 70-80%.
