The instructions for which buttons to press for what actions are only given via messages on whiteboards essentially, and the lady who gives you instructions and seems to own the place only repeats herself a small number of times before basically shutting up completely. The tutorial level was not especially helpful either. None of the movements felt intuitive or precise at any given time. You control your left arm in different directions and wrist by holding down one button and moving a corresponding joystick. However, playing on the console, I found the ragdolling excruciatingly difficult to control. Of course, this very ragdoll gameplay would be unsuccessful in a serious hospital environment, but fortunately, this cartoonish world filled with odd items like rubber ducks laying around the surgery rooms feels like it belongs together. To perform your surgeries, you must move your playerвЂ™s left hand, arm, and wrist along three different axes to grab tools, use them as precisely as you can, and keep Bob the surgery simulation dummy from bleeding out. ItвЂ™s simple, but the possibilities for levels are pretty varied, especially with the level creator. All the while, you must maintain the patientвЂ™s blood level and manage their rate of blood loss. Levels have two aspects: a small platforming bit where you must navigate locked doors and hidden surgical objects, and surgery where you amputate limbs or remove and replace organs from a test dummy.

Surgery simulation games have long been popular, but this is the first time IвЂ™ve played one with intense physics-based mechanics and a first-person perspective. Surgeon Simulator 2В is a novel idea for a game of this type. Just be careful not to let him bleed out. Play your way through single-player and multiplayer levels, amputating and transplanting surgery dummy BobвЂ™s limbs and organs. Surgeon Simulator 2: Access All Areas arrived this week on Xbox via Game Pass to offer the latest in physics-based surgery simulation from Bossa Studios.
