 good concept, bad game, 2004-12-25
i got this game because i am a pre-med student very interested in emergency care. unfortunately, this game did not live up to my expectations. instead of learning how to use certain tools, you are just expected to know what to do. if you use the beginner mode, it tells you exactly what to do, but it doesnt tell you why. this game needs a tutorial to teach what the tools in the tray are (how are you supposed to automatically know that clicking the magnifying glass means visually examining the patient?) and how to use them. also, points were taken off for stupid things, like asking questions (which is never a bad thing in real life) and doing the correct steps in what was supposed to be the wrong order. the paperwork section confused me as well. this could be a very good game if a few features were added, but overall it did not live up to expectations.

 ADDICTIVE!!!, 2002-05-04
Being a person who might want to become a doctor one day, this game was fun and educational. I learned a lot about diagnosis and what to do for different cases. The cases were intersting and the "pressure is on". Fun for everyone. VERY ADDICTIVE!

 too hard to use, 2002-04-11
I bought this game, as a critical care nurse, for the fun of it. Too bad, as I can easily diagnose the problems and know what to do next, I can't get the software to do what I want. For example, when a patient has a "cardiac arrest", (has a lethal arrhythmia) I want to get the defibrillator and shock, but I can't get the software to do it...so the chief doctor comes on and says I've killed the patient. So much for fun!

 Very scary and veryyyyy fun, 2002-01-11
I thought this game was totally off the hook. The only thing I didn't really like is how everyone starts yelling at you and its very scary for me!Mostly the chief of staff she's like what were you thinking.....But I absolutley loved the game!!!!!I recomend this game for anyone that is in to this ER stuff to get it and also code red just look at the price for code red.(it's very cheap so I have both games now!)

Different, entertaining, has promise, 2001-09-08
The plus side is that it isn't a first-person shooter. The minus side is that after a while it feels like "Doctor" (the Hasbro game with the cartoon body and the buzzers) spiced up with quicktime mini-movies.
As a rapidly rising doctor in a busy emergency room you interact with a photo-real patient within the context of Exam Room, Lab, Imaging, and Treatment. As you apply the tools (EKG, and stethoscope, x-ray and blood workup, oxygen and I.V...) to the appropriate body parts, and make the correct entries in your chart, your score rises. At various junctures actor-portrayed characters (the crusty Chief of Staff, the caring young Intern), will speak to you and perhaps share a little of their own story.
