TOMY Medical Mysteries investigation game - Cooperative Game with 4 Cases to Solve - Will your patient survive the night - Individual, Date Night and Party Game for adults

The media could not be loaded. We love the fact that there is a tutorial patient to ease us into the game and to help us understand how to get started a little easier.As much as we have been looking forward to playing this I must admit to be feeling a little daunted myself when we started playing. This for me isn't helped by the fact of the white writing on the dark background made it harder for me to read and concentrate so I did have to get my daughter to do the reading for us .On the electronic card sheet the writing blurred into the background and for me was so difficult to read. I couldn't read the timings at all.I made the mistake in using a pen when we were working out symptoms etc on our patient form (top tip definitely use pencils as you will be able to use the patient form again! I do feel that the game should include more sheets with larger spaces for writing and maybe even some small pencils ? Especially if you want to be able to play the game again (as you can play with other people and get different results each time you play. )The tutorial itself (with the help from my daughter reading) we did find pretty self explanatory, and helped guide us as to where to look and what the next step in diagnosis for our tutorial patient should be. As frustrated as I got at the start due to not being able to read such small writing on dark backgrounds, we were over all pleased with working out the symptoms, how we should treat our patient and are pleased to say our first patient survived the night. Over all impressed with a well thought out games which will bring you hours of fun, but definitely think the style and size of the writing on the dark backgrounds needs looking at , along with wether more patient sheets or even a pad need to be included with the game along with some pencils or even a note on the box , hinting to use pencils so as to be able to reuse the sheets, and definitely more space for writing.

The example case is essential, as it's quite complicated to work out at first. Once you've completed that case though, the others are easy to follow. You need to keep focused otherwise you won't ask the right questions in the right order!We played with 3 generations and all enjoyed it, and we were very pleased that our patients survived the night!

if you love watching Medical tv programms such as 999, you will love the suspense and adventure of this really unusual game. It's for people who would enjoy being immersed in adventure where medical science meets suspense! You’ll love solving these medical cases and keeping your patient alive. This game is perfect for couples looking to delve into a suspenseful and exciting challenge where you will work together to solve the case. It’s also a great game for girls night, on holiday, a dinner party or family get together. Its a really fun game where you actually learn a lot as well as use your own knowledge. It is important to study the instructions first, took us nearly 2 hours to play but was really good.Hopefully your patient will make it through the night ! its really in your hands -fun fun and informative.

Really enjoyed playing this game! I was worried it would be complicated but the tutorial is great and really helps you to get the gist of how to play fast. We played it with a mixed age family group, 12, teens and adults, and everyone was very engaged and got into it - learning a decent amount in the process! Thoroughly recommend as a change to typical board games for a group games night.

I really enjoyed playing this game as it really makes you think! It’s tricky enough to keep you entertained and allows for lots of collaboration with your team. It can be a little tough to work it out initially but playing the tutorial really helps! It’s great if you like mystery games!

The game was great. It really brought our extended family together with no argy bargys which was nice. Good fun all around.

Wow, this game is incredible.I’ve always loved medical mystery books and tv series, when I discovered this game I was so excited! The game contains one tutorial (thankfully!!) and four patients - with different difficulty levels.The tutorial was vital for me as there are so many variables to take in consideration! But then after that it was a blast to try and solve the case!It’s quite different than a “escape room” type game I’d say, but as if not more entertaining.Perfect for greys anatomy lovers!

Similar to an escape room but this time you are saving a life using real medical details.It appealed to my friends and I who have a wealth of medical knowledge from having children, elderly parents and life!We loved the way we worked collaboratively, a bit like an escape room.Each game lasted about an hour and required all of us to check codes, research conditions and tests to help decide treatments. All the information you need is provided on info cards and booklets.We liked the fact there was an epilogue so we could see what we did right or wrong and the effect this could have on the patient.I recommend to anyone with an interest all things medical and likes a challenge.Ps. We saved all 4 patients but one would have been back again as we didn't find their route cause of symptoms!!
