I honestly regret this purchase and it’s only been a day. ### 3/5 — Could be better *2022-12-10, version 1.5* It’s a fun game but how do you cut were you want and the controls are glitchy you could download but it’s a little bit of a waste I would get the one on vr and by the way it’s surgeon sim er just so you don’t make the mistake I did this morning Have a nice day. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad control *2026-07-07, version 1.5* I play it not only I was a bad doctor the game has bad control that’s why ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-01-10, version 1.5* After 10 years this game is still not good to play on mobile , I don’t know what you pay for if the controls are still not good at all , the camera sucks , you cant pick up a instrument and play the game as it should be , and it doesn’t seem that they updated the game at all , its wat better on pc , the game is frustrating and hard to catch on , think they should make it more mobile friendly if you want to put it out there as a mobile game , gonna delete this game and maybe in the next 5 years they’ll fix this ### 1/5 — The payment is wrong *2025-06-13, version 1.5* It says $4.99 but charges me 13.12 I’m extremely upset like why lie about the payment I want my money back. ### 1/5 — The defib doesn’t work *2024-12-20, version 1.5* Every time i try to use it BOB DIES PLS FIX IT. ### 1/5 — What *2024-06-22, version 1.5* I touch the rib cage on the first level and says he he had a heart attack ### 1/5 — Gore *2024-02-06, version 1.5* Too much blood think of the children ### 1/5 — I don’t think you should buy this game *2023-07-01, version 1.5* It is hard you can barely get the heart out of his chest and you lose tool’s just putting them down and it’s hard to break the ribs ### 1/5 — Surgeon Simulator *2023-04-29, version 1.5* This game has an opportunity but has too many fixes that need to happen. Just working the tools drives you insane. No wonder they pay before you play! I wish to receive my money back! ### 1/5 — SOOOOO HARD *2023-01-06, version 1.5* I coudnt even hold the tools and I kept on killing Bob ### 1/5 — Steuerung unmöglich *2023-01-05* Eigentlich ziemlich cool, die Steuerung ist jedoch einfach viel zu kompliziert. Rückerstattung ist beantragt. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best Game (Coming from a speedrunning legend) (credentials in review) *2026-07-30, version 1.5* Hello, I am Tumid, better known on Speedrun.Com as Tum1d, I am the greatest surgeon simulator player to ever touch it. As of Jul 30 2026, I have 14/16 available categories under my belt as world records. I hold Heart, Kidney, Teeth and Eye transplant in main and corridor, Bob%, nobody cares about Alien%, and nearly EVERY alien level. I can confidently say this game, (as buggy as it can be) IS THE BEST. If anyone sees this. This is like Gordon Ramsay giving a review on a restaurant. Play it :D ### 5/5 — This is what it needs *2026-04-29, version 1.5* It really needs a update this defibrillator and the oxygen thing doesn’t work on my version of this app ### 5/5 — Add the brain transplant *2026-03-10, version 1.5* On march the 13 ### 5/5 — Mid😑🫤 *2024-11-01, version 1.5* I feel like it’s a copy of something it’s good but like meh ### 5/5 — Needs updates *2024-07-18, version 1.5* Love this game but would be nice to adjust the screen to fit the new iphones. ### 5/5 — Best game *2024-04-29, version 1.5* I am Tum1d, you can see my world records on speedrun.com. As a speedrunner of this game, it’s a good game. If anyone wants to check it out. Do it and please beat my time on heart transplant of 4.237 (nobody has beaten it since I got the time in 2021 when I was 15 Great game, would play again…. And again, and again, and again, so on so forth :D ### 5/5 — I can tell you worked really hard on this game *2024-01-12, version 1.5* I love this game it’s all up to strategy and love that great game ### 5/5 — PLEASE RESPOND URGENT SUGGESSTION *2023-08-27, version 1.5* Ik a lot of people want more levels but why not allow us to make the levels make another cd where when u enter it pops up with a mod page there people will make maps with custom tools and maps inside then people can make custom levels as a final update with multiplayer add this and allow us to download these levels too. That way it keeps the mad alive thank you. Pls do this I would love to have mods. ### 5/5 — Adding controller. *2023-05-17, version 1.5* The game is great but can you please support controller and it will be more fun🙂 ### 5/5 — fun game *2022-12-04, version 1.5* still a good game in 2022 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
