I've converted the surgery guide into PDF format and the new one also covers
all the surgeries that you'll need to perform.
It works well as a substitute manual as it not only has a step-by-step guide to each surgery but the locations and descriptions of all the tools, liquids, procedures, etc... that you need to be familiar with.
There's also a section on what to do if things go wrong. That's very handy.
I think it needs to be noted in the game review that the game-time when in surgery is way too fast to be able to successfully complete any of them unless you lower the cycles. You'll be five minutes into an operation before 30 seconds is up otherwise and as soon as you notice a bad situation is coming on, your patient's dead...
They need to be really low (system dependant) so that the game-time is real-time - as it should be.
Running the game like this, however, means that the rest of it (like diagnosis) is far too slow. So, you need to change it accordingly.
This was the major reason why I wasn't getting anywhere...
