Beim Kinderarzt
With the help of the young patients in the surgery, players learn how a visit with the doctor goes and what you can spot in a surgery if you are allowed to assist the pediatrician treating patients. The most frequently used Instruments - represented by sturdy carbon pieces for creme, syringe, medicine bottle, plaster storage and thermometer - are hidden under covers representing storage cupboard and doctor’s bag; spoon and stickers for creme and plasters are set out and patient board is displayed. Each patient board shows a child - the background information tells what the symptoms are - and also shows the instruments necessary for treatment.
The active player lifts bag or cupboard and checks for the current instrument, if he suspects that this instrument is hidden there. When the correct storage place was lifted and the instrument found, the item image is covered with a bear token and the successful player also takes a bear token. When all instruments on the board carry a bear token, it is set aside and the next patient board comes into play. When all patients have been treated, the child with most bear tokens wins. As an alternative, you can simulate a day in the surgery, telling the story and illustrating it with the instruments.
A very simple role game with a memo mechanism, featuring an important topic. The details are nice, there are even stickers for dabs of cream and sticking plasters that you can place on the patient boards if necessary. When several children play, you can let them be patient and doctor or doctor’s assistant in free play, either with or without the story as basis.
