Operation Rescue Unit

Operation Rescue Unit

You’re the doctor! Again! Operation Rescue Unit ($18) is the updated version of the highly memorable game that tests your coordination and nerves to the limit. Cavity Sam is back with 15 ailments to pluck out with those all-important tweezers. For the new edition, he has such modern complaints as “texting thumb” and “joystick wrist”. The flashing nose and buzzer will be instantly recognizable to anyone who played the original, but now there are new game modes that let you race against the clock or require you to pump oxygen while you work. The whole thing stores neatly in a first aid kit box, so you won’t be fishing funny bones out from under the couch.
