Table feel

Infected has a high level of direct confrontation and strategic depth in confrontation. Players must frequently be aware of and react to others' strategies and turns. However, there is less emphasis on cooperation in the game.

Replay value

Infected has a high replayability score due to its variability in gameplay, strategic depth, and adaptability to different player counts. The game offers different experiences each time it is played, with expansions available to add new content and gameplay elements. Players have room to improve their strategy over time, and the game scales well with different numbers of players. While it may take some time to learn, the depth it offers makes it worth the investment.

Luck profile

Infected has a moderate influence of luck. Random elements have a notable but not exclusive impact on the game outcome. While players have some ability to mitigate randomness through strategic decisions and planning, luck still plays a significant role in determining the game's outcome.

Overview

The great Black Death has come to you in the Middle Ages, ravaging everyone you know. A Plague Doctor visits you. Can you trust him, and will you be next? Infected is a strategic, secret role social game where one of the party is a Plague Doctor, spreading the Bubonic Plague. The villagers need to find and rid themselves of the evil doctor before they succumb to the greatest plague in history. Players will try to vaccinate other players in their quest to gather information and protect each other, while finding the Plague Doctor. If you are the Plague Doctor, you’ll try to spread the disease as quickly as possible so that you are the lone victor. Here’s the catch: no one knows who anyone else is. Infected is a fast moving game using strategy, deduction, logic, skill, and people reading.
