It's mostly successful, aside some bothersome repetition and a handful of other moments where the momentum lags. Fans of anime and hospital dramas will undoubtedly want to scrub-in to see what LifeSigns is all about. They'll be rewarded with an excellent story and some so-so surgical action.

Nintendo GamerTechnically clumsy and laughably silly, but it's still oddly endearing. [Jan 2008, p.56]

While the stories presented in the episodes are actually quite enjoyable, the trial-and-error nature of fact-gathering coupled with the inability to skip conversations makes furthering the narrative a tedious and frustrating process.

Games Master UKHeavy on text, low on game, which makes it less fun than "Trauma Center." [Christmas 2007, p.84]

A mostly successful operation with a couple of unsightly scars.

Outside of the OR, however, LifeSigns’ bedside manner is far from pleasant.

There is nothing inherently wrong with LifeSigns, but the ratio of hospital soap opera to actual gameplay is insanely high, making most of the experience a wordy one that will fail to draw in those who couldn’t care less about which bone is connected that bone.

I admit, the characters in this game occasionally made me smile. But they weren’t nearly charming enough to justify the hours and hours of wandering and chatting through this dull, unfocused game.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Attractive set-up based on the atmosphere of a TV series unfortunately suffers by the unbalance of gameplay features and slips to boredom gibberish which kills the funnier parts. [Aug 2008]

DanielV.Nov 20, 2007LifeSigns is a fantastic game, and easily one of the most enjoyable text adventures I've ever played. Highly recommended.
