Plague Inc. Not Necroa Achievement Guide

Not to be confused with a Necroa Virus achievement, the "Not Necroa" achievement is actually a Simian-Flu exclusive achievement that can be unlocked by successfully doing a transmission-symptom combo, the zombie panic.

Special thanks to wikia contributor who commented on the zombie panic combo wikia page. His exact words:

Evolve Bat 1+2 and Blood 1+2. Evolve Subconjunctival Haemorrage and Total Brain Death. Wait for achievement to pop up. Worked for me 4 times out of 5. Hoorah B****s

I tested out his strategy, and it indeed works. 2 out of 2 times for me.

Recommended Difficulty: Casual
Genes:

• ATP Boost
• Teracyte
• Ion Surge
• Together Strong
• Extremophile

To make things easier, and simpler, devolve any mutations you're faced with.

Start your plague in Central Africa, wait awhile then evolve Simian Neuro-Genesis followed by Ape Colonies after gaining the needed DNA. Then establish a colony on Central Africa.

Evolve the following ape-abilities in this order:

• Social Cohesion
• Cognitive Shift
• Education

Now we establish some extra colonies to generate some DNA for us. Build a colony in these countries as soon as possible:

• West Africa
• East Africa
• Sudan

Once that's done with, we'll now move on to evolving the necessary transmissions and symptoms needed for the zombie panic combo. First off, transmissions:

• Bat 1
• Blood 1
• Bat 2
• Blood 2

Do not forget to keep devolving mutated symptoms, we want to control our symptom tree as much as possible.

Now onto symptoms, evolve the following in this order:

• Neuro-enhancement 1, 2, & 3
• Photophobia
• Subconjunctival Bleed
• Subconjucntival Haemorrhage
• Total Brain Death

Evolving this way will ensure you don't kill too fast if you're unable to evolve all of them right away.

After all those evolution, keep in mind to always devolve any mutated symptom to control your symptom tree. After some time this pop-up should appear, along with the Not Necroa achievement!

On my first game, it only took a few seconds for the pop-up to appear. On my second, though, it took some time and I thought it wouldn't show up, but it did. So be patient.

That about does it for this guide. Thanks for reading and I hope this guide has helped you unlocked the Not Necroa achievement and as always, Happy Spicy Gaming!
