ER is not a terribly complicated game, with a setting and tasks that are limited in scope. Yet fans of the show, and those desiring a bit different sim experience, will undoubtedly find laughs and enjoyment in this light-hearted depiction of an intern's first days.

When all you have to do is treat patients with the progress dial and occasionally talk to a fellow staff member, it just feels a little too much like work.
Just not a very good game. It's playable, but even in that aspect it has some strikes against it versus other PC games thanks to bad camera work and a frustrating character control scheme.
Bereft of tension and riddled with lazy animations, ER is far from infectious, though it does have an underlying charm that might dazzle the more clinically inclined (or failed medical students).
It lacks any compelling features and gameplay decisions are trite, obvious, or both. Life is tedious enough without games like ER.
Most will find life at Cook County General Hospital surprisingly dull and too much like hard work.
