What this is
Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 begins with the familiar challenge of containing outbreaks around the world, then turns it into a connected twelve-month campaign. New rules, objectives, characters, and threats are revealed as the story advances, while cities can change and characters can carry scars from earlier missions. The group must manage the immediate crisis without losing sight of consequences that may shape every later game.
