A few weeks ago, the popular iPhone game Plague Inc. was booted from the App Store in China under mysterious circumstances. The game, if you’re not familiar with it, is effectively a simulation where users are challenged to create a deadly disease and spread it across the world as scientists and medical health professionals look to contain it. It admittedly sounds morbid at first glance, but the game is incredibly and surprisingly educational. The game is also immersive, addicting, and as a result, has won a number of awards over the years.
In light of the coronavirus, however, the Plague Inc. developers over at Ndemic Creations realized that having users actively try and spread a virus across the globe — when it’s actually happening in real life — may not sit well with everyone. As a result, the company today announced that it will be introducing a new game mode wherein users will be tasked with stopping an infectious disease as opposed to spreading it.
