    Incredible multiplayer experience. You've probably seen loads of streamers playing it and it really is the ideal thing to dive into with friends to muck around. The creation mode isn't my cup of tea but I reckon that anyone who likes building stuff in Minecraft or even Dreams will find it a load of fun. For me the joy really is in playing the levels these people make with friends.

    It's not the same as the old game, sure, but that's what makes it fun! Co-operative surgery with friends, level building and so much more makes this game more fun than the previous one with the same wacky physics that we all know and love.

    Massive improvement on the originally great game. Multiplayer is a really fun addition, and the map editor is unexpected and gives hours of gameplay alone. Well worth getting!

    Great way to expand the formula of the original and bring multiplayer into the mix, really fun gameplay to experience with a bunch of friends.

    Much potential, sadly squandered. The premise of the game is great but the execution is less impressive. The solo game is fairly dreary and thankfully very short, but the multiplayer is where the potential goes to waste. It feels like the kind of game that would have suited couch co-op and as a PC online expert that fun from the chaos quickly turns into frustration as other players messMuch potential, sadly squandered. The premise of the game is great but the execution is less impressive. The solo game is fairly dreary and thankfully very short, but the multiplayer is where the potential goes to waste. It feels like the kind of game that would have suited couch co-op and as a PC online expert that fun from the chaos quickly turns into frustration as other players mess around, cause levels to fail or generally just tend to spoil the feeling of actual cooperation.

    There is a level creator in the game too that I've played around with but honestly it feels like making more levels that basically all inherited the flaws of the main game is a somewhat silly idea. There have been one or two really good levels in the player made catalog, but the majority are pure garbage which highlights the games sad flaws. If UGC is your thing there are already much better tools and games out there.

    As a final thought, I think the games matchmaking is either broken or the game isn't selling as I rarely seem to get matched with anyone. Though given the crap chute that is the multiplayer maybe this is for the best.

    Gamespot's review of this game has been my experience. It's funny for about 5 minutes and then the frustration kicks in. From simply trying to get the saw to work correctly and watching it glitch around when trying to cut off a body part, then it gets randomly stuck on an organ, to trying to load the patient and it takes forever for NO REASON to load the patient.

From simply trying to get the saw to work correctly and watching it glitch around when trying to cut off a body part, then it gets randomly stuck on an organ, to trying to load the patient and it takes forever for NO REASON to load the patient. You can attach a limb to watch it detach itself. Sometimes you're performing the surgery and a limb will fly off or even the patients head will fall off but you weren't near that limb or his head. Sometimes you're simply trying to stop blood loss but the needle won't connect for some random reason.

    It's simply poorly designed and too glitchy. Other people might like it, that's fine, but I hate it. It just isn't fun.

    I had tested the first one and it was so rigid and the 2 is not better and moreover very badly optimized, in short I uninstalled it ...

    Filled with the same style of ridiculous surgical antics as the original, Surgeon Simulator 2 does a remarkably good job of expanding it into an inventive puzzle game. The "simulator" genre's brand of obtuse controls and fussy physics objects starts to feel like a chore as you get a few levels in, but share the experience with some friends and there's a good time to be had.

    In the long run, Surgeon Simulator 2: Access All Areas is not a game about keeping poor Bob from bleeding out, however. Sure, there are plenty of scalpels and lots of missions but once you’re done cracking ribs with a bar stool or lighting up a lung it’s not the seasonal rewards or cosmetics that will get you coming back for more. Instead, Surgeon Simulator 2: Access All Areas will live or die by your creative skills rather than your deft scalpel skills.

    Surgeon Simulator 2: All Access absolutely does what it sets out to do, which is turn “surgical precision” upside down and allow the player to make an absolute mess of what should be the most delicate of procedures, adding physics-based puzzles and escalating objectives that will either frustrate or challenge. In this case, the awkward controls are a feature, not a bug. For anyone who has already played the game, this new version doesn’t add much, but for console owners or anyone new to the title it’s definitely the version to pick up.
