We'd like to send you one of ours to try, too. Ours is city-scale, and New York is the first city:

Pricey, but 100% biodegradable.

How different is it from Pandemic?

Very, and it's very good https://bsky.app/profile/sdague.bsky.social/post/3kf4tvs7iwl2h

@leighphillips.bsky.social This sounds like a game idea I remember you talking about!

In the same vein, there's a (free) video game called Half-Earth Socialism which is also paints an optimistic future where humanity can overcome climate change

Is it the same concept as pandemic? Or different enough to have both?

Very different, you definitely want this one. It feels more like Wingspan in play because of how the card engine works. And very replayable, every game turns out very differently.

Same creator; very different mechanics. They’re not at all the same game
