Do you have to have On the Brink in addition to the 2nd edition Pandemic game to play this?

In the Lab does not require On the Brink for the main component of the expansion, which is the lab board. ITL expands on some elements of OTB, but do not let that dissuade you from picking it up first.What you can use with the base Pandemic game:- 5 new roles (1 is an updated OTB role so you don't get a colored pawn for this but it's close to the liaison color)- 3 new events- the lab board and sequence cards- 4 new shiny cure vials (the fifth is purple)- the solo CDC role- team gameplay including new research stations, goals, awards, etc.What you cannot use:- 2 new virulent strain cards- 12 additional purple cubes- 2 mutation cards- the game box tray is designed to hold the petri dishes from OTBAs you can see the bulk of the expansion is fully compatible. Fully. I own the base Pandemic and ITL. I'm waiting for the October reprint of OTB and you can bet I'll have a copy ordered because it has great content as well. You do however, need the 2nd edition of Pandemic, or have purchased the compatibility pack from Z-man games if you have the first printing of the game.ITL is a solid expansion and really adds depth and complexity to the game. Worth the purchase before, after, or without OTB...

Can you fit all of the base game, OTB, and ITL inside the ITL box? I like that I can fit everything so far into the OTB box and would like to be able to do the same here.

You can place everything from all of the previous expansion and core game. The only things that don't fit are the cure vials because the "In The Lab" has larger plastic vials that replace the small wooden tokens. I took photos and posted them so you should be able to see how I organized it all in one box. Go to the product page scroll down to view customer images.

So do you use BOTH the main game board AND the board that comes with ITL? Or just the ITL? And if you ONLY use the ITL board how would that work?

You use both. The ITL board is sort of like a mini game. When you go to a lab on the main board, you then use the ITL board to try and figure out the cure. So, you no longer just trade in the 5 cards to cure. You still need the 5 cards but you also have to complete the virus code using the different colored cubes. It's fairly simple to pick up if you're familiar with the main game. My wife and I love it.

Does this work with the original pandemic, the second edition, or both?

Yes, it is compatibility, but not exactly. Only the backing of 6 optional cards will look different from the original game. You can buy card sleeves for your cards that costs like $1 or $2 and that would solve the problem. But if you don't care about the back of the cards, then it won't matter at all.

Pandemic - in my opinion - is the best board game ever published. It takes just the right amount of time to play (30-60 minutes), is cooperative so everyone playing is a team trying to beat the game which makes the social dynamic more engaging than a competitive game, the mechanics are basic and easy to learn, and the game is different each time you play. I have yet to find another game that borders on so close to perfect as this one. It doesn't even need the expansions (except for On the Brink - you have to get that just for the petri dishes for your disease cubes) which to me complicate an already precisely balanced game. I cannot praise this game enough, and everyone I've played it with has gone out and bought their own copies.

Es una ampliación imprescindible, esta y la IN TO THE LAB lanzan el juego básico a otra dimensión. Muy recomendables.

Ce jeu est génial ! Pour tout les amateur de jeux de plateaux et Lovecraft c'est un indétournable. Pour ceux qui ont du mal avec l'anglais le jeu est très simple une fois pris en mains vous n'aurez aucun problème avec les cartes.

A fun, quick game! You're working on a timer so it can be quite stressful, but it can also lead to funny moments of pure panic. You are trying to deliver cures, like in Pandemic, but it is otherwise a completely different game. Takes about 20 minutes to play, quick set up and is well made. It's a stand alone game, and more for light fun then strategic gameplay (like Pandemic).

Erg toepasselijk thuisquarantaine vermaak! We spelen meestal op een avond een paar rondjes achter elkaar, want het klaarzetten en opruimen is wel wat werk met al die kleine onderdelen. Zeer geschikt voor mensen die niet tegen hun verlies kunnen.
