Surgeon Simulator (2013)

Surgeon Simulator is a chaotic and hilarious take on medical simulation, perfect for players who enjoy absurd humor and challenging gameplay. This over-the-top title throws you into the operating room with a cast of bizarre patients, from a surprisingly detailed depiction of The Heavy from Team Fortress 2 to the controversial former President Donald J. Trump. The game's darkly comedic tone, coupled with its incredibly fiddly controls, makes for a unique and often frustrating experience. The sheer absurdity of performing surgery on these characters with unusual tools and scenarios is a large part of the game's charm. While not a traditional Infogrames title, Surgeon Simulator showcases the developer's knack for creating distinctive and memorable experiences. Despite its release in 2013, the game's innovative and humorous premise, along with its highly replayable nature due to the sheer randomness of the situations, reflects a certain spirit of risk-taking and creative experimentation present in some of Infogrames' other offerings. The 2017 update further elevates the experience, enhancing the graphics and expanding the gameplay opportunities. This innovative title warrants its inclusion because it demonstrates a lighthearted, quirky approach to a genre, reminiscent of the playful experimentation seen in some other Infogrames productions.
