Board Game Geek Rating: 5.60. Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 7.47. Players: 1 - 4. Published in 2019. This is the Kickstarter Edition of the Rush M.D. Board Game. Note: Unless stated otherwise, paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included. You're a newly - hired doctor at a state - of - the - art Medical Center. Work with colleagues to admit, diagnose, and treat patients. Combine your skills to treat patients efficiently, but beware, mistakes are costly in Rush M.D.! Rush M.D. is an innovative real - time cooperative board game that mimics the high - pressure medical field. A worker placement system using hourglasses lets you perform various actions but also limits you. Each player controls 1 Doctor hourglass to admit patients, give immediate care, conduct exams, and perform surgeries. There are also 4 Nurse hourglasses for all players. Nurses supply medicines, drugs, and equipment. Once an hourglass is placed on an action space, it can't be used elsewhere until the sand runs out, so every decision counts as time is limited. The game is for 1 - 4 players and consists of 4 rounds of 4 minutes each, just 16 minutes in total to treat patients, face challenges, and work well with teammates. It offers a highly thematic experience, fun for gamers and families, full of excitement, challenges, and smart decision - making. In Rush M.D., the pressure is on as lives are in your hands!

How to play: First, gather 1 to 4 players. Each player gets 1 Doctor hourglass. There are also 4 Nurse hourglasses available for all players. As a doctor at the Medical Center, your goal is to admit, diagnose, and treat patients. Place your hourglasses on action spaces like admitting patients, giving medical care, doing exams, or performing surgeries. Nurses help by supplying medicines and equipment. Once you place an hourglass on an action space, wait until the sand runs out before using it elsewhere. The game has 4 rounds of 4 minutes each, so manage your time well. Try to cooperate with your teammates to treat as many patients as possible. Note: This is the Kickstarter Edition. Unless it's said otherwise, paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign aren't included. When you're done playing, keep the game in a dry and cool place to avoid damage to the hourglasses and game pieces.
