Fake News is a scenario added to Plague Inc: Evolved and Plague Inc. in the Mutation 1.17 update, announced on the official website's news.
What happens?
In the scenario, the aim is to deceive as many people as possible. Infectivity is now virality, severity is now plausibility, and lethality is now community. The cure is now called Fact Checking and for a plague to be eradicated, it needs to be disproven. Abilities is now Adaptability, symptoms are now Growth and transmissions are now Manifesto. People are now informed, and then deceived, and unlike the Ultimate Board Games scenario, Deceived people would not act as dead people, as in that scenario, Sales would act like deaths.
First, the fake news plague needs a topic, a starting party, a motivation and a blame, which are gained by evolving traits, described in the Manifesto page. Then, Growth and Adaptability traits are evolved to spread the fake news and prevent it from being disproven, in their corresponding renamings. One will have to balance and virality and plaudsibility for best results. Transport will not shut down, at all.
Increases in DNA cost due to buying traits and genetic drift is disabled.
Trivia
- The first line in the scenario image is "Sadness is a result of chemicals in the water."
- The second line in the image is "Social Media now only way to vote in Election."
- The third line in the image is "Vaccines are probably a bit rubbish." This refers to the modern notion of anti-vaxxers.
