Surgeon Simulator
GAME » on April 19, 2013
A parody of the popular "Simulator" series of games depicting realistic takes on generally boring careers, Surgeon Simulator is a wildly unrealistic depiction of kidney, heart, and brain surgery where the primary challenge comes from the game's deliberately awkward controls.


Overview

Surgeon Simulator 2013 first started out as a Global Game Jam (Concept) entree made in only 48 hours. After the game went viral the developers decided to make a full version of the game, adding more levels and releasing it on Steam (Concept).


Levels

There are three types of operations: Heart transplant, Kidney transplant, and Brain transplant. Each of these levels has an Ambulance variant where players perform surgery on Bob in the back of a speeding vehicle. After both variations of the main three operations are all completed, a secret level, wherein the player operates on an alien patient with a completely inhuman anatomy, will be unlocked that can be accessed by inserting the floppy disk titled "???" into the computer.


Playstation 4 Anniversary Edition

An updated version of the game came out on Aug. 12, 2014 on the Playstation 4 with the subtitle: A & E Anniversary Edition. It includes 10+ surgeries to perform, which contain all the previous and hidden levels. The game has been made to take advantage of the DualShock 4 (Accessory) controller by using the motion sensor to manipulate the arm of the surgeon. There is a co-op mode scheduled to be released on August 27th, 2014 which will allow 2 players to perform the same surgery with each person controlling an arm of the surgeon.



Nintendo Switch CPR Edition

In 2018, Bossa Studios released a port for the Nintendo Switch with the subtitle: CPR. In this particular case, CPR stands for Cooperative Play Ready as the port includes a special local cooperative mode.
