Between levels, there are notes taken down by a psychiatrist about a man who thinks a piece of toast has come alive and is wrecking his house. Yeah, I don’t get it either, but I’ve played games where I’m a magical goat wizard so I’ll go along with it. The fact is you don’t play “bread” necessarily but rather a seemingly sentient piece of bread that wishes to be toasted. However, a “Bread simulator”? Hmm how odd, but intriguing. While it’s not a genre they created, as QWOP might be one of the original games with intentionally bad controls, it is a genre which they seemed to have shown a mastery with Surgeon Simulator. A game which could also simply be called a “Bread simulator”, a new entry in the “bad simulation” genre. So in 2015, Bossa released a follow up to Surgeon Simulator, simply titled “I Am Bread”. It was odd, it was unique, and It was a smash hit. The controls really challenged the player to do the surgery. I don’t mean that as an insult to the game as they are intentionally bad, but the fact is you had to manually control every finger of a hand to grab tools to work on the surgery. It tasked the player to do surgery on a patient with just awful controls.

So in 2013, a unique game came out called Surgeon Simulator by Bossa Studios. Well, I don’t think they get much more indie than I Am Bread. But I like to switch between an “AAA” title and an indie title. I don’t know why, but I try to avoid only playing AAA titles, and looking at my list I’ve done a fantastic job. I say them entirely too often, but it’s also one of the reasons I think I have an interesting list of reviews. “Let’s play something completely different.” Oh, those words. Also Available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, macOS, iOS and Android.
