1. Introducció
Welcome to the classic Operation Electronic Board Game by Hasbro Gaming. This manual provides essential information for setting up, playing, maintaining, and troubleshooting your game. The objective of Operation is to carefully remove "ailments" from Cavity Sam without touching the metal edges, which would trigger the buzzer and light up Sam's nose.

4. Operating Instructions and Gameplay
4.1. Objectiu
The goal is to be the player with the most money at the end of the game by successfully removing Funatomy parts without triggering the buzzer.
4.2. Com jugar
- Torn del jugador: El jugador més jove comença. El joc continua en sentit horari.
- Draw a Card: On your turn, draw the top Doctor card from the pile. This card will indicate which Funatomy part you need to remove and the amount of money you earn if successful.
- Perform Surgery: Using the tweezers, carefully attempt to remove the specified Funatomy part from Cavity Sam's body.

Figure 4.1: Removing "Butterflies in Stomach." This image demonstrates a hand carefully using the tweezers to extract the butterfly-shaped "Funatomy" part from Cavity Sam's stomach cavity.

Figure 4.2: Removing "Brain Freeze." This image shows a hand carefully extracting the ice cream cone-shaped "Brain Freeze" part from a cavity near Cavity Sam's head using the tweezers.
- Successful Removal: If you remove the part without touching the metal edges (no buzzer sound, no nose light), you keep the Doctor card and collect the indicated amount of money from the bank. Place the removed Funatomy part aside.
- Unsuccessful Attempt (Buzzer): If the tweezers touch the metal edge of the cavity, the buzzer will sound, and Cavity Sam's nose will light up.

Figure 4.3: Cavity Sam's nose lights up. This close-up image shows Cavity Sam's face with his red nose illuminated, signifying that a player has touched the metal edge during an operation.
When the buzzer sounds, your turn ends. You do not collect money for that turn. The Funatomy part is returned to its cavity. The next player draws a new Doctor card.
- Specialist Cards: Some Doctor cards may instruct you to draw a Specialist card. These cards may have special rules or higher payouts for specific ailments. Follow the instructions on the Specialist card.
4.3. Ending the Game
The game ends when all 12 Funatomy parts have been successfully removed from Cavity Sam. Players then count their money. The player with the most money wins the game.
