Although the extra content and more accurate controls are a welcome addition, Surgeon Simulator CPR’s steep learning curve will alienate most players.Simulators are the kind of games where in my experience you either succeed spectacularly or fail miserably and there a lot of reasons for both them starting with what is being tried to simulate all the way to the experience itself. Surgeon Simulator for the Nintendo Switch is that third type of game, it’s that casual game you play with your friends to get some laughs and now it’s on the Nintendo Switch, so you will be able to do it anywhere you friends are.Īlthough the quality of controls differ from joy cons to the pro controller it’s still as challenging as any Surgeon Simulator game on the other consoles, the movement of the hand is something that you will need to control in a super percise manner and this includes the grip mechanic so in the end the range of the player moves goes for total chaos as he just keeps on knocking stuff over from the tray to the floor or plain perform stupid things like flippin’ the patient (which award the player with an achievement!) which is kinda sad but still extremely funny especially when someone else looks at your screen. However, there is no denying it that it is certainly not a title that can be recommended to those lacking patience or who want to get into med school. Such moments serve as reminders as to why it can be an amusing game to play. Fortunately the words malpractice and lawsuit don’t appear to exist in the Surgeon Simulator universe. It’s odd that a game that can create some truly hilarious moments is so compelled to limit what players can do.Īt many times the character might accidentally inject himself with what looks like a local anaesthetic, which results in some surreal botched operations. Which means having to do and probably fail the same one over and over again. Getting stuck in one of the operations will result in not having access to further operations. The main issue is that Surgeon Simulator CPR almost seems to deliberately want to make itself as joyless as possible. The sort of situations that players will find themselves in are begging to be shown live to the world. It’s no wonder that the original game became so popular in the era of live streaming when it was originally released. Which is where the newly implemented cooperative mode comes in handy. Surgeon Simulator CPR is definitely the sort of title that could be extremely fun in a group taking turns whilst most likely botching operations. This is the kind of game that is at its best when not taken too seriously. In reality the patients should be dead by the end of the operations, but anything can happen in the virtual world of Surgeon Simulator. Yet it can also feel rewarding to eventually get over how blood might make most players queasy or how the somewhat realistic looking organs look like whilst being smashed to bits or removed. The game would have definitely benefited from providing proper instructions or at least offering to guide players who might start to feel overwhelmed by what is being asked of them. It can feel frustrating to slowly figure out how best to use everything that can be used whilst performing operations. What it does not have is a proper tutorial explaining exactly what each tool does and the most effective way to use it. Surgeon Simulator CPR has some very basic instructions for various actions in the form of floppy disks that are inserted in a retro personal computer in the main hub. In that he or she lures you to the edge of the deep end of the pool and then pushes you in. In a way it is similar to being taught to swim by a strict parent. However, it has to be said that someone new to Surgeon Simulator will struggle a lot whilst playing this game. It makes it a lot easier to perform some of the movements and actions required to perform each of the steps needed to perform each of the surgeries. The addition of the Nintendo Switch unique and accurate control scheme is an asset for the game. The idea is to remove any organic matter in the way of the objective of the operation by working out which tools are most effective for each of the jobs. Players will have a selection of tools at their disposal to perform the surgeries with some rather unconventional items included. In Surgeon Simulator CPR players take on the role of Nigel Burke as he goes about performing variety of increasingly bizarre surgeries. This enhanced version of the game comes with new features, such as a local co-op mode, but will it prove to be worth the effort? The popular Surgeon Simulator has finally made the jump to a Nintendo console with the arrival of Surgeon Simulator CPR on the Nintendo Switch.
