An emergency medicine residency told in swipes. Over 200 cards, seventeen endings, and a program that remembers what you did. No two residencies are alike.
You matched into emergency medicine. Congratulations. You have five years, twelve shifts a year, and four things that must never hit zero — or one hundred: your standing with faculty, your standing with the nurses, patient outcomes, and your own sanity.
Swipe left or right on every card — an attending, a nurse, a frequent flyer, your own mother texting you a photo of a mole — and find out which choices are funny, which are serious, and which come back to haunt you three years later.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- Over 200 cards across a full five-year residency, R1 through Chief year
- Seventeen endings — some you fall into, some you walk to, three secret
- Choices with consequences that arrive shifts, sometimes years, later. Some doors close behind you. Some decisions you'd forgotten come back with your own words attached.
- Every residency activates a different mix of storylines — no single run contains them all
- Name your own resident — the game draws your doctor's portrait from what you type — or roll a stranger and see what happens to them
- The Wall: every resident who's ever worn your hospital's badge, remembered forever, with how they made it and how they didn't
- Things one resident does that land on the next one, seasons later
- Achievements for the ways you can succeed, fail, and everything stranger in between
One purchase. No ads. No in-app purchases. No data leaves your device.
Residency is long. This shouldn't be.
