Overview
Description

Step into the shoes of Nigel Burke, a clumsy would‑be surgeon, and perform life‑saving (or hilariously disastrous) operations with a single keyboard button for each finger. The game blends dark comedy with physics‑driven gameplay, turning every procedure into a chaotic challenge. The single‑player experience is available across Linux, Android, PC, iOS, and Mac, offering an indie‑crafted puzzle‑role‑playing simulator that rewards both skill and absurdity.

Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition lets you control Doctor Nigel Burke’s flailing arm with a single controller, attempting to save the hapless patient Bob in a hilariously physics‑driven operation. The game adds an exclusive offline co‑op mode, so two players can each control a hand and create even more surgical mayhem together.
