❤ Unique Gameplay Mechanics

The game tasks players with performing a variety of interactive, dexterity-based mini-games to treat their patients' bizarre ailments. These range from popping boils, removing pests, to even putting patients' body parts back in place. For example, players must carefully click and drag to extract a parasite crawling across the patient's face or time button presses to align a bandage on a swinging wound. The creative and often grotesque nature of these treatments keeps the gameplay feeling fresh and engaging throughout.

❤ Addictive Progression

As players progress, the game introduces increasingly complex and challenging patient cases. The gameplay loop of diagnosing symptoms, selecting the appropriate treatment, and quickly executing the required actions becomes highly addictive. Many reviewers noted how they found themselves compelled to keep playing just to see what new and creative malady they would encounter next, such as curing a patient's "arachnocough" or harvesting "berry pimple juice."

❤ Forgiving Difficulty

While some of the later patient cases can be quite challenging, requiring quick reflexes and precision, the game allows players to retry treatments as many times as needed without punishing failure. This accessibility is appreciated by many, enabling more casual players to enjoy the charming world and narrative without being frustrated by overly demanding gameplay.

❤ Visual and Audio Design

The game's striking visual style, featuring a whimsical paper-craft aesthetic, is frequently highlighted as a standout element. The music and sound design also contribute to the experience, blending a subtly unsettling tone with moments of levity. For example, the sound of a patient's "dangling eyeball" popping back into its socket is described as both satisfying and cringe-inducing.
