Z-Man Games’ Pandemic for $18.95 from Pozy.com

The Pozy.com games page is currently offering the Z-Man Games boardgame “Pandemic” for $18.95, which is approximately $16 off its normal retail price.  The Z-Man web site describes Pandemic as follows:

Four diseases have broken out in the world and it is up to a team of specialists in various fields to find cures for these diseases before mankind is wiped out.

Players must work together, playing to their characters’ strengths and planning their strategy of eradication before the diseases overwhelm the world with ever-increasing outbreaks. For example, the Operation Specialist can build research stations, which are needed to find cures for the diseases. The Scientist needs only 4 cards of a particular disease to cure it instead of the normal 5.

But the diseases are outbreaking fast and time is running out: the team must try to stem the tide of infection in diseased areas while also towards cures.

A truly cooperative game where you all win or you all lose.

Contents: board, 96 wooden cubes (for diseases), 5
pawns, 6 wooden research stations,
6 markers: 1 outbreak marker, 1 infection
rate marker, and 4 cure markers, 115 Cards: 48 infection cards, 59 player cards,
4 role cards, and 4 quick reference cards
No. of players: 2-4
Ages:
10+
Playing time: 45-60 minutes
Price: $34.99
Stock code: ZMG 7021

At this kind of a discount, I expect the game will sell out quickly, like the Axis & Allies: Guadalcanal on Tanga.com did earlier today.

I should point out as a matter of due diligence that I have no affiliation with, nor have I ever ordered anything from, Pozy.com.  Their inclusion here is as a news item and a public service, not an endorsement or recommendation.

Axis and Allies Guadalcanal for $16.99 at Tanga.com

The Tanga.com web site is currently offering Avalon Hill’s Axis & Allies: Guadalcanal for only $16.99 plus shipping.  The specials on this site are typically offered for a short time (e.g., 24 hours), so you may want to move on this quickly if you’re interested.  Note that I’ve not personally bought anything from this site so I can’t vouch for its reliability or service.
