The coronavirus game is one of the arcade games in the Diemakora collection. It loads in seconds and needs nothing installed. Arcade games are designed around the loop, and The coronavirus game has a good one — short attempts, instant restarts and a score that begs to be beaten. From the tags you can already tell that it has retro pixel-art visuals; progress comes from clicks or taps that snowball through upgrades; you place defences to stop waves along a path.

About The coronavirus game

Experience the thrill of battling against a perilous virus in The Coronavirus Game, a vibrant and engaging game that challenges players to eliminate the virus using a vaccine before it overwhelms the world. As you navigate through various levels, your mission is to deploy your vaccine swiftly and efficiently, making crucial decisions to eradicate the virus at every turn.

What makes a good arcade game? Usually instant restarts, difficulty that ramps steadily and bright, readable visuals — and The coronavirus game has each of them in some measure. Under the surface it is a test of focus and timing, dressed up in playful presentation.

Tips and tricks

  • Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
  • Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
  • Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
  • Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
  • Because this is a Shooting game, aim before you fire, and fire in short bursts.
