Looking for Amateur Surgeon 4 tips, tricks and cheats to help you make your way through the levels? We’ve got walkthroughs for the most challenging levels to help you get rid of crabs, fix Horrace, Eddy the Dog, the Temple Guardian and more.
Last week, Adult Swim graced iOS gamers with its newest game offering, Amateur Surgeon 4. While the game is a somewhat of a re-master of the three original games, it brings with it 100 challenging and gruesome levels, featuring a number of unconventional surgery techniques and tools. In the game, players must master the art of using a pizza slicer, staples, vacuum cleaner, syringes and more in hopes of saving their ailing patients’ life. While the game can be a bit gory at moments, it’s a ton of fun and will keep players engaged as they race against the clock to keep patients alive.
The Amateur Surgeon 4 tutorial does a great job of guiding you through the first few levels of the game, but as you progress, you’ll find yourself more and more on your own trying to figure out how to use your rudimentary tool set to successfully complete your operations.
Below, we’ve included walkthroughs for the most challenging levels of Amateur Surgeon 4 we've played so far, starting with Level 7 and moving through Level 25. The tips should help you deal with all kinds of hangups like removing tracking sensors from Eddy the Dog, ridding Horrace d’Obsence of his ant problem andScarlett Throbbing of crabs or figuring out how to complete the Temple Guardian’s unusually complicated operation. As we complete further levels we’ll continue to add to this guide.

- Vacuum splatters, treat wounds.
