Plague Inc: Evolved: Necroa Virus (Normal)

The Guide for the Necroa Virus on Normal.

Before The Guide

This plague actually has a few storylines in it. I'll go over them before we begin.

These are taken straight from the Wiki, so pardon me.

If Egypt is infected first, a popup may appear saying that explorers are going deeper into the newly-discovered tombs of Giza. The hieroglyphics will warn the explorers of an ancient plague capable of destroying humanity. The mummy excavated will have "strange bite marks". When zombies infect the world, a news headline may pop up saying that the Necroa Virus may have come from the Pyramid of Giza, indicating that the Necroa Virus is much older than Patient Zero.

If the USA is infected first, a popup can appear saying that DarkWater (scientific research group) is missing a scientist, meaning that Patient Zero could be this scientist. Later on, other popups will say that DarkWater has created the Necroa Virus, and another one saying that they are planning to make a kind of "zombie pacifier".

If a player infects the UK first, it may say that PfiGlax (another scientific research group) made the Necroa Virus.

Lastly, if the Plague is started in Ukraine, theories will begin circulating that the Necroa Virus was created by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

Gameplay

Unlocked by completing the Neurax Worm on Brutal. If on PI: E, follow this.

Oh boy. Nothing is the same anymore, is it?
The Necroa Virus is no exception. You aren't aiming to eliminate the world... You're eliminating them, reanimating them, and eliminating them once more.

If you wanted to, you could control these zombies to do your bidding, but we won't be doing it.

Similarly to the Neurax Worm, all traits are different.

Genes

Same old, same old.

DNA Genes

Metabolic Hijack. Keeps us from having to manually pop bubbles.

Mutation Genes

Creationist, which reduces mutation chance. This is required. If you hate yourself, go without (seriously though, please use it)

Travel Genes

Aerocyte, for extra air infectivity.

Environment Genes

Xerophile, for a boost in arid climates.

Necroa Virus Genes

You'll only get these for beating Necroa Virus.
Nothing is needed, actually.

[shadowjupuxfrud]

What if you want the achievement of not making zombies the entire run

[それについて泣く]

Works great ty man

[Eowyn]

Works well, feel free to speed up the game as this is a slow gamemode! It helps with the DNA bubbles too, for those struggling to devolve.

[EmiUltra100]

thxs very much it was usefull

[mdelliott2000]

did not work for me, i didnt get enough DNA to demutate the symptoms in order to infect all the countries, let alone everyone.

[chutemeplz]

thanks this was so easy with this!!

[Diogiaz]

the game is way more easy with Creationist, I couln't without it

[John George Diefenbaker]

Thanks for the guide, but I ended up so close to losing because the cure reached 98%. Luckily the mutations and growing zombie rates halted cure development, but I did come really close to almost losing this one.

Worked :D got 4 stars, finished it in about 1800 days. Got lucky tho, no mutations
