Emergency Room 2 (Jewel Case) Review
I'm a 16 year-old aspiring nurse, and I got this game because I wanted to learn more about medicine. As other people have stated, this is *not* a game that you can just start playing and be good at, unless you work in healthcare or know a good deal about it. pSome problems that I have with the game:br- Occasionally a "patient" will come in with an injury in one of their extremities, let's say a badly scraped knee. When you get into the exam room, you can't immediately tell which knee it is, and sometimes they don't tell you. Because you lose points for performing unnecessary procedures, you are occasionally robbed of points because you check a normal body part first.br-Sometimes the CME (Continuing Medical Education) computer gives you bad advice. They tell you that most doctors will perform a certain kind of test, but if YOU perform that test, the game tells you that it was unnecessary.pOther than that, it's a pretty good game. When you do well in the exam room, the nurse flirts with you, which irritates me a bit because it means that the maker is assuming that all the players are guys, but other than that, it's fun.pThere are plenty of resources in the game to help you, so you don't need to be a medical expert to play - just be prepared to put a little time and effort into learning. This is an excellent game for people who are thinking about going into healthcare. Because you can select patients either randomly or by ailment, it's also a good way to study.

Very Different - Vanessa - Battle Creek, MI
A very different game, it's pretty entertaning but it can get quite boring when you've already treated the baby that hit her head on a sprinkler a million times. Dr. D. Boss seems like a normal boss, a little nicer than some. p I don't know what her name is, but there is this nurse that flirts with you every chance she gets...which is quite comical. brDon't order unessacary procedures and tests, or else it will come back to bite you in the end.brThe graphics leave something to be desired, and it's kind of annoying when you treat this one brunette, 16 year old and once you get done treating her, you go back to the waiting room to select a new patient and she's there again!pThe same use of charecters makes you feel like you never treated that person at all. pIt can get a little boring and the patients can get rude, but if you play it in moderation, it will be okay.brGood luck to the new Dr. Carter's!
