### 1/5 — Meh

*2017-02-21*

Game gets stuck on first procedure. Doesn't save previous gameplay. Exiting menu doesn't go back to previous gameplay. Grammar deficiencies. Seems fun but bugs make it intolerable.

### 3/5 — I'm on the second level. Why doesn't the syringe work.

*2016-12-02, version 1.3*

Syringe won't work

### 2/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-08-21, version 1.3*

Would love to play but doesn't let me get past the first surgery which is kinda ridiculous as I can't go on this exciting journey that you speak of.

### 1/5 — ):

*2016-07-07, version 1.3*

It freezes after the first level

### 1/5 — This game is so bad it's hilarious.

*2016-02-24*

This game is a freaking JOKE. Not only are the operations completely glitchy, but the time continues to run out even during dialogue. It is also a complete knockoff of the game Trauma Center, even going so far as to have to deny its connections in the opening disclaimer. It also appears to have been extremely poorly translated into English, having so many grammar mistakes that at times it is rather difficult to understand in the slightest. I would absolutely recommend this game if you need a good laugh; otherwise, if you're dead serious, just go get another game. :)

### 1/5 — Trauma Center knockoff

*2015-10-01, version 1.3*

This is a sad ripoff of Trauma Center: Second Opinion/Under the Knife. You can't even stitch left to right; you must stitch right to left, which feels really strange.

### 1/5 — Needs an update ASAP

*2015-08-08, version 1.2*

Continuously crashing. Freezes. Not optimized for iOS 8.

### 1/5 — Game continuously crashing

*2015-07-01, version 1.2*

Not working.

### 4/5 — Trauma Center Second Opinion

*2014-08-17*

This is an ALT to Trauma Center Second Opinion by Atlus, in case you want to find out more about it. Tho the characters needs a tune up, it's fine for now.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2014-07-25, version 1.1*

I sense a copycat.... 👎👎👎

### 1/5 — A rip off and waste of time

*2014-04-20*

This game is huge disapointment. I downloaded it thinking that it would be like surgeon simulator, but it really is junk. I tried using a tool, and it did not do ANYTHING. I tried about 10 times, but that was it. This game is a total rip off.

### 1/5 — I HATE IT!

*2014-04-16, version 1.1*

This app was a waste of my time! It took forever to start and download and it has way too many bugs for it to function correctly! DONT BUY THIS GAME!!!

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2014-04-15*

All the other reviews are true, but I would not mind if it wasn't for the crashes that occur so very often. -_- I don't like being in the middle of a level and then it stopping and crashing on me. I'm going to delete this soon if it continues.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2014-04-14*

The glitchy graphics were annoying, but I could live with that. However I got to the first surgery and I tapped everything but nothing worked. The text was cut off and there were no instructions. Don't play

### 1/5 — Worst game ever

*2014-03-26, version 1.1*

Crap, crap, crap. Glitches everywhere!!! Instructions are stupid. Characters and names look like a four year old make them. I just wasted 20 minutes of my life

### 1/5 — Booooo😤

*2014-03-25, version 1.1*

This was the worst game ever it had tons of glitches. ages 4+ I don't think so it said tons of curse words

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY it’s a SCAM

*2022-04-13*

This game is a scam!! It does not work at all when you try to navigate and press things. Also it is zoomed out and not full screen so you can’t see anything. Waste of money!!!

### 1/5 — Dodgy

*2020-08-10, version 1.9*

I paid $6 for this?? SO dodgy, won’t fit properly on my screen and can’t even play the first level. Tells me to look at the wounds and that’s it, won’t let me do anything.

### 1/5 — Glorious

*2019-04-10*

this game is awful. there’s no sugarcoating it. but holy heck is it some amazing livestream fodder. this has to be seen to be believed

### 1/5 — VERY DISAPPOINTED

*2019-03-21, version 1.9*

No idea why it is promising in the first 3 chapters but it seems like chapter 4 is impossible to complete ??? Why does it take so long to fill up the syringe Neomi?????? SURGEONS ASSISTANT FOR FLIPPIN WHAT!!!????!!!! If this was real life, the NHS would’ve been hit with a negligence claim with the rate you are working at. Your trade union would 100% not agree with your working ethic little girl. Also your excessive flirting with the main doctor is not appropriate in the workplace. HR will see a visit young lady. 

PLEASE FIX ASAP !!!

### 1/5 — Stolen money!!

*2018-06-07, version 1.5*

This is supposed to be a free game!! I press download and it charges me £3.97!! I haven’t even played this game yet and it’s charging me!!

### 1/5 — Deleted instantly

*2018-03-14, version 1.4*

It’s a real shame about this game. I’d give no stars if I could.. I liked the operation part of the game which seemed complicated at first. I really couldn’t focus on the storyline at all due to the poor English narrative. (It took too much of my time trying to read as some parts do not make sense at all) Poorly developed game!! 0 stars!

### 1/5 — Hey

### 1/5 — Dont waste your time.

*2017-06-22, version 1.3*

Totally gutted wont let you get past the first level!! Whats up with that?! Was looking for a GOOD iphone version of the original trauma centre for the nintendo ds. Would have been pretty good if it let you go further!!

### 1/5 — Can't Play

*2017-06-17, version 1.3*

Game gets stuck after first procedure. Looks just like Trauma Center, which is what I wanted...just fix the ad handoff.

### 5/5 — Unhappy

*2012-12-23, version 1.1*

I am very unhappy with this game as I started playing it and it was okay for a bit until it didn't show up the instructions of what I was supposed to do and would not let me do anything I could not see any of the writing on the screen as the characters were in front of it and would not move so I was not able to play the game

Great game but crashes on level 11

### 5/5 — Be a Surgeon Free

*2012-08-30, version 1.0*
