Operation Game, circa 1975
Add to SetSummary
Milton Bradley introduced this game of skill in 1965. Players need a steady hand to "operate" on the patient (an image on an electrified board powered by batteries). Each player tries to remove plastic elements with metal tweezers. But be careful! If the tweezers hit the metal lining, an electrical circuit is closed, and the patient's nose lights up while a buzzer sounds.
