A mostly successful operation with a couple of unsightly scars.
The Good
* Weird dialog and cool characters
* Solid surgical gameplay
* Avoids some of the pitfalls native to the adventure genre.
The Bad
* Broken heart battles
* Examination sequences make you feel like a creep
* The presentation is rough around the edges.
6.5/10
While there are a few hiccups with the translation, LifeSigns offers a solid fifteen hours of storytelling for your $40. Worth checking out if you're looking for something a bit different on your DS. Lastly, parents - despite the PG rating, this is a fairly graphic game. The operations aren't sugarcoated, and the entire experience is loaded with adult themes and sexual innuendo.
AN 07' VERSION OF THE BOARD GAME OPERTAION
I downloaded this game (Bittorrent), its aweful. That other DS operation game (forgot its name) is much better.
