Life & Death

On the IBM version, I could do the surgeries, but on the IIGS, it never could nick the peritonea.

IBM could clamp an area, then nick the paritonea, and then proceed. IIGS wouldn't allow.

Back in the day called the company and they said there was a glitch in the game and they would send the updated disk to me. Never did...

CGA version was way ahead of every other game, to the point it resembles EGA. It's amazing what the developers were able to do with only 4 colors

Best game ever made.

I love this game so much :3 it is much easier than the brain one. I wish there were more games like them on this site! I highly recommend Operation: Frog too, it is available on this site and is super entertaining and educational!

This game still gives me nightmares. It's still very addicting to play! It even beats out the Trauma Center series made by Atlus!

i played this game without a manual... a lot of patients died so i could learn how to do surgery.

There are some issues in the game. During startup, it will report something failed. When entering the OR room, sometimes the game could not successfully load up the OR room and returned to the splash screen

Best game ever made.

The game here is amazingly easy, once you know what you are doing. I got this game when it first hit store shelves in the 80's. It came with latex gloves and a surgical mask.

Anyway, at that time I could never figure out "patient's upper right to lower left" I always thought, as a kid, that meant upper right of screen to lower left of screen. When I got older and figured it out, I was able to get rid of those "you didn't use a mcburneys cut" messages in class. So basically you cut from the upper left corner of screen, to lower right. Don't cut the blue drape. When you open the third skin layer, the pixels are going from upper right to lower left, so cut WITH the grain (the direction of the pixels) and when you get to the white layer, in the upper left corner of that area, place forceps, then at the tip of the forceps, double click the mouse with the scalpel and you should get a black dot. Remove the forceps and make a cut using scissors from that black dot to lower right. That part was always a pain for me.

I think my best score ever is 9/10. Very rarely do you get the first patient as an operation, but if you can get your very first patient as an operation in the appendix, and then the next patient as an operation on the aorta, and you complete both of those successfully, your score would be 2/2, since the game ends after completing the aorta operation lol.

LGR brought me here

To chi ld support not only fun and games.

Was best bak in day

Anybody here cause of Joel

Some title screen that...

Every single patient of mine always dies. I'm not a very good doctor.

the good game the medic prof.. fune and education game ...

LOL Ow!! Ouch OW!!!! ahhaah The surgeries were funny!!! I actually panicked!

Yeah, I remember how about a third of the time it would be gas pain, so you could medicate it instead of surgery. Those would be the only survivors in my games. :]
