Final Assignment: Are you sharp enough? Part 1

 My final assignment is based on the game Operation, but with a focus on the the first surgical tools in history.
------------------------
Statement of intent
------------------------
My main idea behind it is that of a game which can be fun for kids to play as well as be an educational experience for them. As such, it is to be marketed as a toy/game for kids, and an educational tool for teachers/schools. It will stand as an entertainment platform as well as educating the players regarding the first tools and their uses, with my advertisements reflecting the changes brought upon its players from being ordinary kids to doctors and surgeons.

------------------------
Word List
------------------------
History - Learn and pay with the first tools.
First - First tools, yet are virtually unchanged through the years, and still used today in modern facilities.
Surgeon - Doctor, operator, specialist, life saver, etc.

Slogans

"Cut it close!"

"Are you sharp enough?"

------------------------
Competitors
------------------------
Hasbro mainly, along with other educational game manufacturers, but mainly Hasbro due to the fact they are the only company that produces Operation, and as such they have countless spin-offs of the game, ranging from Spongebob, Spider-man, Family Guy, even Dr. Who themed Operation games.
