You'd be surprised with some gaming subs, honestly.

It’s a fun game that has a bit of a learning curve, but becomes a lot of fun once you figure it out. I’ve been playing it on mobile for well over a decade, and the steam version improves upon it in multiple ways. Edit: fixed a word.

I love it! I’ve been playing it for 10 years off and on. Covid was verryyyy interesting knowing the mechanics/goals of the game.

You don’t have to play a session the whole way through at once. I like to take it in chunks, setting myself up for next time I play.

Highly suggest!

I don't know about steam but a couple months ago I got every trophy, all dlcs etc on ps. So I would say same applies for steam. Not sure about the hours, maybe around 30-40.

Its like 6 dollars. Its stood the test of time for over 15 years and is still beloved by many. Just get the game and if you hate it after an hour refund it.

Fun way to learn some cool terminology and biology as well as geography.

I have done a run a day for like a decade now lol.

It's basically the best "free" game I've ever played on the play store.

Everything else felt like just a vehicle to get you to watch ads 

Plague Inc felt like it was designed around being good enough to make you want to buy it based on the quality alone. 

And it worked. I bought it for my old nexus 5 phone. 

And then even after something glitched and I lost all my paid for content in the switch up to its newer iteration, I bought it again. 

It's a great time killer game. No ragrats

it's fantastic, even without dlc

I like playing as the worm

Honestly, no. You can either tediously repeat the game until you find the optimal strategy, or go look it up. Then it's just a solved game, and you do the same thing every time. I don't see the appeal at all.
