Doctor Panic

hectic in the emergency room

As a team of doctors players treat patients in the emergency room. You play in teams of maximum three players and use App or soundtrack. One player as head physician takes one card of each type of treatment and sets out the patient card for the chosen degree of difficulty.

All teams play simultaneously, Heart Failure and Director’s Call as events interrupt current treatments. For Heart Failure one player does heart massage, the others lay set out cards for the currency value, call “back” and lift their hands, then bang the table and call “shock” . A regular peep tone indicates that heart failure has been avoided and regular treatment can continue. When the phone rings, treatment is interrupted. One player answers the call, reads out the task and all do the action; then treatment continues.

Treatments are: Control Check – one player uses the magnifying glass as instructed; Prescription – the pill board must be filled correctly; Instruments – the head physician must receive four instruments of his description in the correct way; X-Ray  - one player must pose exactly in two ways described to him; Stitching – a pattern must be formed with needle and thread; Scanning – the patient card must be passed through two scanner cards that prop each other up; Electrodes – correct placement on the patient board according to the template, and Injections – exact dosage as regards to dose card and patient card. Teams can help each other teams when done with their own tasks.

Crazy, hectic, cute and with super relation to the topic – a real-time game suitable for families that is simply fun! Cheating in treatments is of course forbidden!
