Plague Inc. is a real-time strategy simulation game developed and published by Ndemic Creations. The game was inspired by the 2011 film Contagion and the 2008 browser game Pandemic 2. The player creates and evolves a pathogen to annihilate the human population with a deadly pandemic. The game uses an epidemic model with a complex and realistic set of variables to simulate the spread and severity of the plague. It was released on 26 May 2012 for iOS, 4 October 2012 for Android and 13 May 2015 for Windows Phone.
An updated version, which released on home consoles and personal computer (PC), first released in 2015 as Plague Inc: Evolved and includes adjustments and additions to the gameplay. In 2017, the developer released a physical board game based on Plague Inc. titled Plague Inc.: The Board Game. In December 2018, the studio released Rebel Inc., a follow-up game with a political theme. In 2024, Ndemic Creations released After Inc, which is set after the Necroa Virus apocalypse and involves rebuilding the world.
