Call the Doctor PnP Medical Board Game Preview

Call the Doctor is a print & play game where players step into the role of a surgeon and perform challenging operations. Each game is built around medical scenarios inspired by specific cases – for example, removing a brain tumor. The gameplay combines several mechanics: action pool management, dice allocation, and drawing. Players have access to a set of resources, including: -Medicine Card -Tools Card -Patient Status Sheet -Operation Sheet The surgery is carried out step by step: anesthesia, incision, removal of the lesion, suturing, and awakening – each stage introduces different mechanics and requires careful decision-making. A key element of the game is the proper use of medicines. Every drug influences the patient's condition in unique ways – for example, raising blood pressure while simultaneously reducing blood clotting. The duration and difficulty of the surgery depend heavily on the patient's status. At the beginning of each turn, a Status Card is drawn, modifying specific indicators. In addition to performing surgical actions, players must also counteract these ongoing effects to keep the patient stable. Call the Doctor offers a unique mix of strategy and thematic immersion, turning every operation into a tense balance between precision, timing, and resource management. The game is largely based on real surgical procedures, medicines, and instruments, and aims to be as realistic as possible. -description from the publisher
