Walkthrough

The youngest player goes first followed by the player to their left.

The player draws the top card from the Doctor pile. The card will tell them which funatomy part to remove and the fee they will be paid for a successful operation. The player then takes the surgical tweezers and attempts to remove the funatomy part without touching the edges of the cavity. If they are successful they are paid from the bank the fee designated on the card, they keep the part, and the Doctor card is placed out of play. It is now the next players turn.

If they are unsuccessful the part is dropped back into the cavity and their turn is over. The player with the specialist card for the unsuccessful operation is now allowed to give it a try. If the Specialist is successful they receive the fee on the specialist card. If the Doctor and Specialist are both unsuccessful, the Doctor card is placed at the bottom of the draw pile and the Specialist holds onto their card for the next time that operation is attempted.

In the event that the player has both the Doctor card and the Specialist card for the same operation they get two tries to perform the procedure.

Winning the Game- 
When all twelve funatomy pieces have been removed successfully the game is over and the player with the most money is declared the winner.
