This game was fun, for as long as it was, and for how cheap it is. At $9.99, this game is a quick fun game that you can play for maybe a day or two, and uninstall after you’ve had your fill. The physics are really impressive sometimes. Other times, they are NOT that great, with my hands or objects continuously getting stuck in objects that were a struggle to get undone. I didn’t do hand tracking, just because I haven’t quite yet been impressed enough with it to play comfortably, and I think hand tracking would’ve just made this even more frustrating than it was. I do wish there was some hints that could be given to the player if they request it, maybe highlighting the exact tool you should use, because there were many circumstances where I didn’t know what tool to use because a some look identical to others, and I am also not a doctor. But this game was fun, the puzzles were fun, there’s not a lot, but it’s stressful in a good way, and I like having some of these high tech tools that help to distinguish this game from other surgeon sims. I do wish they played with that a lot more. The last two operations deal with aliens, and that’s so fun! I really wish they dived more into some of that wacky sci-fi and robot stuff to set it apart even further.

The last level is unbearable. For whatever reason, the game can not comprehend your hand moving the lever you’re using to control a robotic arm backwards, so I spent about 30 minutes trying to get past the first task in the last level, finally got past, and then it bugged out and I couldn’t progress further. I’m still saying I completed it though, because I could complete it if the game worked as it intended. It was an interesting idea, but just was not executed well.

But, fun; I’d recommend it if you just want a quick fix of something pretty fun. Obviously, if you’re not a big gore or blood person, this game is very much not for you.
