Stat Protocol was designed by medical professionals who still have a sense of humor. In Stat Protocol, each player is a doctor at a hospital which has been inundated with sick patients! Players randomly select patients from a deck of cards who each have descriptions of their care, special instructions and length of stay. Patients are drawn randomly and play is impacted by the event cards and choices that the players (doctors) make with "drug" tokens as well as the number rolled on the dice. Players may choose to discharge patients or remove them from ICU depending on their game strategy. Don't worry -- you don't need a medical degree to play this game! —description from the designer
