Serving as a paramedic, your goal in the game is to deliver the patients in need to the hospital in the swiftest manner. The game starts with an emergency call stating the patient's location. Then click the OK button on the screen or press spacebar on your keyboard to start the mission. Use the four arrow keys on your keyboard to control the ambulance and get to the destination as quickly as you can. Follw the directions indicated by the compass on the left, travel to the designated locations marked by green circles to pick up the patients and then send them to the hospital. The ETA at the top left corner shows the estimated time of arrival, and you should aim to complete a mission within the ETA so as to receive more experience points and to be promoted. Note that even though you are rushing, you need to be careful on the road as the ambulance may hit and crash if you do not play by the rules. The level of destruction is indicated by the green clamp at the bottom right corner. Whenever the ambulance is crashed, a part of the green color will turn to red. The clamp will completely turn red when the ambularnce is totally damaged, and you will lose the game. If you do not crash the ambulance, you may continue to play until the progress bar at the top is filled. Try to save as many lives as possible until your shift ends!

An Okay Game to kill some Time. And it doesn't want to be more - Well, i failed hard after i played it the first Time, but that was my own fault, not the Game's. :D I liked the Controls, it wasn't hard to get used to it, but it could have been a bit swiftier. What really bugged me were the narrow Streets and the inability to use the sidewalk for turning over - that made it a lot harder to control the Ambulance. Now, i imagined how it would be in Real Life if the Ambulance couldn't use the Sidewalk under any Circumstances for some Reason, but well, this isn't RL.

Overall, 3/5 - Good Job.

The controls were kinda weird but other then that I liked the game keep it up

There are a few fun things to this game, but it seems like a little fine tuning would take this a lot farther. I love how cars will pull over near an ambulance, but while their AI is pretty good, there are a few issues. My biggest struggle was that when I tried to back up, a car facing me would keep closing the gap so that I couldn't turn around. Another issue I encountered is that when I would hit a wall, my entire ambulance would turn around. This wasn't as much of an issue, but just strange and sometimes annoying.

Just for fun, I would like to see the passersby react to the ambulance, maybe just to watch as the ambulance goes by.

I hope to see more like this soon.

It's a bit too hard... It's far too easy for the ambulance to break down, and it gets really irritating to have to start all over again every time. It would be nice if you had some way of repairing the ambulance when it gets beat up. Otherwise pretty good game.

hard to control the ambulance
