As a kid, have you ever had a dream to be a surgeon? Using drills and saws to open someone’s ribcage and play with their lungs? Well, you can, and all from the comfort of your own Linux machine. Introducing Surgeon Simulator 2013 – an extremely fun game by Bossa Studios – a big thank you to Bossa Studios for sending us a copy of the game – to simulate a surgeon’s environment. This cartoony game starts off, and instead of getting a generic menu asking you what you would like to do, you get a first person view of your interactive desk. If you play around enough, you can get Steam achievements. A little note: if you are at the desk, make sure to look over at the TV to see how to play the game. What is great is you can manipulate pretty much everything in this menu. To access the surgeries you must go to the clipboard. Then comes the surgery, which is quite fun and not that gory; you have all the surgeons tools at your disposal and to freely use on your patient, but watch the blood meter and blood-loss meter on the top right.
The good: This game has no set goal to it. You can do whatever you want whenever you want. The surgeries are quite fun as you can use any tool you like to do the surgery. Playing around in the reception / desk has so many things to do. The interface is pleasing and easy to spot. For all you gamers whohave special controllers (Hydra, etc), there is a special mode (still in development) to utilizethese controllers. Also there is a Team Fortress 2 expansion update.
The bad: This game has a huge learning curve, meaning not everyone can just pick it up and be a master at it; it has a very challenging set of controls, and, if you aren’t perfect, it can be quite unforgiving. Also the game has no “objective” system (example: First break ribcage, take out lungs, take out heart…etc) – which could be helpful to people who haven’t learnt the steps of surgery. How to get the game: This game is available on Steam for $9.99, the installation is quick and easy.
The minimum specs are; OS: Ubuntu 13.04 CPU: 2.0 GHz processor or better Memory: 2 GB of RAM Graphics: Radeon x850 or comparable Hard Drive: 500 MB HD space Additional: Requires keyboard that can have multiple keys pressed down at once, and this game is recommended to play with a mouse and not a trackpad.
