Developers cannot say for sure whether the blocking of the coronavirus epidemic is related. The company assures that Plague Inc. – “smart and complex” simulator, whose educational functions were noted by many health organizations. Moreover, now developers are engaged in a certain initiative that will help in the fight against Covid-19.

Analyst Daniel Ahmad (Daniel AHMAD) calls several possible reasons for removal Plague Inc. From the Chinese App Store:

The simulator started long before the new rules for licensing games were accepted in the PRC – formally it spread without the permission of the authorities.

In December 2019, an update was released for the game Fake News. He offers a new mode where the user creates not a fatal disease, but a false hearing. According to the analyst, the state prohibits fakes in games, especially those related to the government and its members.

As far as it is known Ahmadu, Plague Inc. – The only entertainment about the viruses that was deleted: the rest of the games, including the projects of the Chinese studios, were not injured. That is, creation Ndemic and really could fall out of disgrace to censors due to Fake News.

Number 3 COULD BET Likely Reason as the Game Recently Released a ‘Fake News’ Update in the iOS Version PEOPLE PEOPLE To CREATE MISINFORMATION.
