Ulm, Germany - May 29th, in the year of our Lord 2020 -- Today German solo indie developer Markus Failer, founder of Phodex Games, announced, that his round-based strategy game "Corona Simulator" will launch June 12th on PC for Steam, Itch.io, and GameJolt. The game is a sophisticated mixture of challenging strategy game and frighteningly detailed virus simulation. As a global pandemic leader, you skillfully manage nations' resources, make tough decisions, and impose drastic measures to combat the deadly coronavirus and change the fate of mankind.

"My goal with Corona Simulator was not only to bring joy to the players but also to give them hope", said Markus Failer, founder of Phodex Games. "In fact I have voluntarily placed myself in domestic self-quarantine for the entire production period of the game to express my respect for the victims of COVID-19 and all the people out there struggling with quarantine. Additionally I decided to donate 20% of the revenue made by the "Savior Edition" to the WHO COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund".
