Overview - This game is very difficult to review, because quite simply there is so much to it that can't be written about, you just have to experience it. You will perform a variety of different surgeries to save the lives of various patients. Taking advantage of the Nintedo DS's touch screen, you are thrust into the world of Trauma Center, where you are a Rookie Doctor learning the ropes. Trauma Center : Under the Knife ( Nintendo DS ) It's not bloody enough for the faint of heart, but the medical terminology and explaination of procedures, while simplistic and a bit dumbed down, is enough to set the stage for an entertaining medical drama worthy of network television. Overall, Trauma Center offers a nice change of pace from your run-of-the-mill RPGs. After a few operations, you'll learn 'the healing touch' which will allow you to slow the game enough to get through some of the tougher, fast-paced surgeries. Graphics are average, but that's probably a good thing considering the semi-gory subject matter of the game. The cut-scenes are a bit tedious, but help move the story along nicely. This can be espe cially frustrating if you've made it through a tough surgery with one miss left, only to 'fail' the operation because you used too much gauze. You'll be harshly judged on whether you use too much, too little or crooked bandaging tape/gauze. Be careful when bandaging the patient following the procedure. You are judged on accuracy and alloted a number of 'misses' for each surgery. Your sometimes friendly, sometimes cranky, surgical nurse guides you through the required tasks of the procedure, instructing you to use the game's various tools (magnifier/ultrasound, scapel, laser, drain, forceps, hypodermic needle, bandaging, etc.). The cases range from accident victims to patients suffering tumors and such, all in need of surgical intervention. Trauma Center: Under the Knife is an interesting, unique and mildly challenging game that tests your accuracy with your stylus much more than your accumen as a rookie surgeon.
