                    Original Operation: $14.95 at BoardGames.com

Check out the new Operation Rescure Kit.  Apparently, some people didn’t like that in the original game the man is naked.  It’s not like a real, um, ”area” was drawn on the man.  They have now given him a pair of boxer shorts.  A few new present day ailments have been added such as texting thumb, joystick wrist, belly button fluff (ew). 

                                                   Operation Rescue Kit: $24.88

Some other new features include an a light up monitor that keeps track of the score and an oxygen pump for adding more time for game play.  Parents won’t mind playing this game because there are four new games and 3 levels of difficulty.  The best thing about the new game is that you can carry it anywhere because it folds into a neat portable case!
