Viral Days

Viral Days is a mobile virus-themed game designed to emphasize the need to strictly follow quarantine measures during outbreaks. This game serves both as a fun way to educate society on the pandemic essentials like wearing masks as well as an opportunity to ease anxiety caused by COVID-19. The players’ core philosophy is to heal, protect, and prevent. This real-time strategy game has 25 levels, each of which has a new map tailored to the needs of novices, advanced users, and experts. A typical Viral Days player will probably be occupied with supplying town dwellers with masks, hospitalizing and quarantining people, dispersing crowds, imposing lockdowns, and arresting those who violate the rule. The game reflects everything the world has been recently going through.

It’s been a while since we’ve tested a mobile game, so when we learned about Viral Days, we couldn’t resist and scanned it for bugs. Can bugs spoil the fun? For sure. Let’s find out what Viral Days’ creators can do to make the gaming experience seamless.
