Imagic developed this game for Texas which uses the speech synthesizer to good effect. If you have fancied your chances as a part time surgeon, now is the time to put your skills to the test. Selecting from student, intern or surgeon expertise, you then have a choice from up to a 1,000 patients!

Various symbols identify the following conditions - tar deposits, cholesterol, gall-stones, kidney stones, tapeworms (yuck!) and tumours. Using ultrasonic rays, antibiotics, or aspirin by selecting 1, 2 or 3 on the keyboard, you can then decide on the surgical probe speed by keying 7 or 8.

Movement of the probe is made by either keyboard or joystick, the medication chosen being released by fire-button or key.

The multi-screen graphics are superb and display the following: position of robot probe in body, status of patient with condition of individual organs and close up scanner with magnified position of probe and hospital room.
