Overview

Operating on Cavity Sam with tweezers is the whole game: pull out ailments without touching the sides, or his red nose lights up and he burps or yelps. The board comes in an all-in-one carrying case with storage for the pieces between games.

Two modes give the classic a second life: Hospital mode is turn-based with Bandage cards, while Emergency mode is a race against time. The sound effects add laughs for kids. Battery size is listed two ways and age guidance differs between title and specs, so read the box before buying for a young child.

Who it's for

Kids who enjoy a steady-hand challenge and families wanting quick rounds on the road will get use from the case design. Households with very young children around should wait because of the small parts warning.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two modes for turn-based or timed play
  • Carrying case doubles as storage
  • Sound effects tease every miss
  • Short rounds suit short attention spans
Cons
  • Batteries not included
  • Battery size conflicts between AA and AAA
  • Small parts pose a choking hazard
  • Player count differs between specs and title

Performance notes

Success depends on hand steadiness, because the tweezers trigger the light and sounds whenever they touch the edge of a cavity. In Hospital mode, Bandage cards set which ailment each player must remove. Emergency mode adds time pressure, which raises the miss rate and the noise.
