Players
roll dice to race around the board, catching diseases and trying to be
cured. Catch diseases left in public places, pass diseases to other
players, get cured in the medical stations. Medicaid, Christmas
bonuses, and the lottery help pay the bills. Diagnose your disease in
the Info center, get it wrong and you catch the disease!
Disease cards provide a wealth of information, are color coded to
indicate severity from basic diseases to major communicable diseases.
Each card includes both the common and Latin name, causes, symptoms and
treatments. Multiple medical libraries and medical professionals have
been consulted to insure the accuracy of the information.
Treatment options and prices vary over a large range. Visiting the
Voodoo Doctor is the cheapest way to go, but his results can be
unpredictable. The intensive care center has the best service, but is
the most expensive place to be cured.
