Plague Inc. is a real-time strategy simulation video game, developed and published by UK-based independent video game studio Ndemic Creations. The game was inspired by the 2011 film Contagion and the 2008 Adobe Flash game Pandemic 2.[1] The player creates and evolves a pathogen to annihilate the human population with a deadly pandemic. The game uses an epidemic model with a complex and realistic set of variables to simulate the spread and severity of the plague. It was released on 26 May 2012 for iOS, 4 October 2012 for Android and 13 May 2015 for Windows Phone.
The Steam (Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux) and console version is entitled Plague Inc: Evolved and includes adjustments and additions to the gameplay.
According to Ndemic Creations, Plague Inc. has been downloaded over 160 million times as of May 2021[update].[2][3] The game was positively received by critics, and it was a runner-up in the IGN Game of the Year 2012 awards for 'Overall Best Strategy Game'. Plague Inc. continues to have an active community and is regularly updated.
In 2017, the developer released a physical board game based on Plague Inc. titled Plague Inc.: The Board Game.[4] In December 2018, the studio released Rebel Inc., a follow-up game with a political theme.[5]
The game has seen large surges of new users in several countries after significant virus outbreaks, such as the 2014–16 Ebola outbreak and the COVID-19 pandemic.[6][7]
