I tried like 8 times mega brutal :( I'm going to give up for now.
(Me insisting only starting in Turkey since that was where my mouse was closest to probably had something to do with it.)

>start in japan
>wealthy countries IMMEDIATELY become ultracancer to infect
>spend 23 years not able to do anything, barely reach 100 infected
>some dumbass idiot fucker travels to southeast asia
>infect 6 billion people in half a year
>mfw they cant even crack 10% on the cure before i destroy their brains

this is so hilarious

Don't panic! Resist the urge to buy genetic reshuffles until you really need them! Save your DNA for more important things.

And lastly, my guide is not gospel^^
If you're in the middle of a game, and you can clearly tell my guide won't work in your situation, experiment with other symptoms!

Wow, it's really been a year already...
Well, I can try!
I went ahead and followed my own guide, to see if I missed anything.

I can add some tips:
Your starting country is very important! Keep in mind your natural resistances(cold, hot, arid, ect)

The UK has a special trait, "Big Assets", a reality TV show it will produce if you evolve certain symptoms, and it has a large enough infected population. Once this show runs for long enough, it will see MASSIVE success and popularity, resulting in infectivity bonuses, and eventually undermining the cure!

Keep a close eye on which countries are not getting infected very quickly.
If you see a country that has been infected for some time, but hasn't really spread much, spam it with trojan planes.

I discovered this a while ago and only recently gave it a shot. I tried following the guide but things arn't progressing/unlocking the way your walkthrough depicted, I know it's been over a year since you made this but do you have further help?

I was expecting a special ending text about endless orgies... Given the very sexy events I've seen unfold, I'm disappointed...

Interesting concept. Might have to try this out.

The reason you shouldn't go past yet, is the super cure country will declare war on all bimbos, if either Nymphomania or Zom-Bimbos is evolved.
This means the infected will die MUCH faster in that country.
You should wait until the super cure country is at least 50% infected before triggering this.

12: If you haven't already, get cold 1&2 and Drugs 2. Trust me, you'll need them.
13: If you haven't already, get Nymphomania.
14: Fill out the middle tree as fast as you can.
15: Get the Acceptance symptom.
16: Get Domination and infect everyone.

Bonus tip: If a particular country isn't getting infected, spam trojan planes at it.

Okay then. Here's a walkthrough, but you may need to try a few times!

Do your best to get these in the order I list. Keep in mind, some of these are sort of situational.


1: Conc. Locomotion& Und. Locomotion
2: Get the first 2 symptoms, to open things up.
3: Symbiosis 1&2 at the SAME TIME, to maintain severity.
4: Go for Trojan planes right away.
Also, I recommend going to Sweden first, if they're not infected.
5: Promiscuity 1&2
6: Nympho. tree - first 3.
7: Get to genetic hardening 2.
8: Get the first 3 symptoms in the middle tree.
9: Get Symbiosis 3
10: Get Promiscuity 3
11: Fill the Nympho tree to sensitive erogenous zones. DON'T go past it yet.

I went ahead and tried that strategy, but the thing is that it seems like ocne you hit 40% unless you already have a stockpile of points, you're just wholly screwed.

Sure! Here's some tips:

you'll almost DEFINITELY need the 'sabotage cure combo'.

The way to get it is as follows:
First, you'll need either Drugs 2 or Gen. hardening 2.

Next, you need to get Symbiosis 3. In order to get that, first you need the Occipital Mesh symptom.

Once you have all of that, wait until the cure is 40% done.

The blue bubbles should have started popping up by now. Once the combo pops up, you'll get DNA for popping them!

Don't go past Confusion on the 'Air-head' tree, or it'll be disabled!
--------------------------------------------------------
Of course, there are other ways to win.
If the trick above doesn't work of you, try different symptom, transmission and ability combos.

I put in a LOT of them.

If you still can't figure out how to win, I can give you a walkthrough.
