It's a great app. It would be nice if it was continously updated with added features, cases & educational information.

The idea of this app is great! But the formatting is bad. Some text is off the screen and there is no way to see it, some answers cannot be selected, and you have to scroll in a tiny box of one line of text. If these things are fixed, it will be much better!

It's hard to read the clues. My phone screen is huge, so I don't know why there's only 1 visible line of text... It would be better if I could read them in a pop out like how they show the graphs and data. It's really interesting though.

Very stimulating game to challenge oneself. Wonderful for learning and to use critical thinking and problem solving.

Nicely made app. Good way to teach people on the consideration made to understand and control outbreak. Great for PR for CDC as well.
