The folks over at Atlus bring us Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2 for the Nintendo DS, which is a great follow up to the original and brings back the love of cutting up patients. You return as young Dr. Derek Stiles 3 years after his first exploits to rid the world of all kinds of ailments and diseases. GUILT, a terrorist disease concocted to destroy humanity, is back and Dr. Stiles and his nurse must stop it no matter what the cost.
Trauma Center does not deviate from the great gameplay of the first game. All the same tools and procedures are back in this installment. You use your stylus to control everything on the touch screen, from injections to control infections, to incisions to remove exploding organs, to stitching up wounds and putting antibiotic gel on them. You have 8 tools to choose from at a time and simply click on the one you want to use and then perform the correct stylus stroke to operate on your patient. To perform an incision, simply stroke along the incision line and to perform a suture, make a zigzag motion across the wound. The stylus controls are phenomenal and the prompts from the nurse make the game very exciting.
