# Infection

## ~avatar avatar

There is a disease outbreak! Will you find patient zero?!?

## ~

**Infection** is a distributed game which simulates 
the spread of an illness. **The goal is to stop the outbreak before every player dies!**

* **Number of players:** 1 Master and 4, or more, additional players. The Master and all other players need a @boardname@ with battery pack.

In this game, a Master @boardname@ infects a single, initial player ("patient zero")
with the illness. The infected player is contagious immediately but won't show any signs sickness
during the incubation time. The sickness gets transmitted when two @boardname@s get close enough to each other to "contract the disease".
After the incubation period, a sad face appears on the screen. After the sickness period, the player will eventually die and a skull displays on the screen. Dead players are out of the game.

If at least one player survives the outbreak, the game is won. Otherwise, try again!

## ~ hint

**Infection** is an engaging game that will get your students running around.
We recommend playing it outside, or in a large open area, to give more space for the activity.

## How to play

Press `A+B` to enter Master mode (there's only one Master in a game).

Wait for players to be paired. The number of paired players will display on the screen.
When paired, a letter appears on the player's screen, this letter is the player's identity.

Once all of your players are registered, press `A+B` to start the infection game. 
The game randomly picks a player as **patient zero**.

A player will transmit the disease to another player if close enough (detecting a sufficient `RSSI`), and if a certain probability (`TRANSMISSIONPROB`) of disease transfer is reached. 
During the incubation phase (`INCUBATION`), the player does not show any sign of illness (happy face). 
After that phase, the player gets sick and shows a sad face on the screen. After the sick (sad) face, the player dies and a skull shows up.

Once the game is over, the @boardname@ will show the player's id (`A`, `B`, `C`...), health, and 
the id of the player who infected them. The Master @boardname@ will show the identity of patient zero.
  
Icons used in the game:

* Pairing: `IconNames.Ghost`
* Paired: `IconNames.Happy`
* Dead: `IconNames.Skull`
* Sick: `IconNames.Sad`
* Incubating: `IconNames.Confused`
* Healthy: `IconNames.Happy`

Take a look at this video to see how the @boardname@ uses radio to spread "disease"
in this game:
