How to play
  • 1Each case is a core presentation. In multiplayer you pass the bleep: whoever holds it must call a differential that's on the list.
  • 2A valid, uncalled answer scores and passes the bleep on. Small typos are forgiven; if a spelling is too far off you get "Did you mean…?" suggestions. Wrong or repeated answers keep it in your hands.
  • 3Your turn timer starts at 20s and shrinks with every pass, down to the room's minimum. Run out of time while holding it and you lose a heart. Rounds are fair: once someone fails, everyone else still gets their go until the lap is back to whoever opened the case.
  • 4Obvious answers barely count; rare ones sink you deeper (4 m per point). "Too clever" picks, the zebras everyone reaches for (phaeo, sarcoid, Wilson's…), only score 15. Each case hides one Zebra worth 100.
  • 5Points earn hearts back (up to the heart cap). Last one standing wins. Depth levels: Triage, Ward round (400 m), Consult (1,000 m), Grand round (2,000 m), Case report (3,200 m). Answers are colour-coded like blood tube caps: grey, gold, green, blue, lavender, red.
  • 6Single player: the Daily dive gives everyone the same 7 cases each day, 60s each, to list as many differentials as you can. Infinite runs on air: start with 45s; answers add air (bread & butter +8s up to The Zebra +16s), wrong answers cost 3s. Single-player levels sit deeper: Ward round 2,000 m, Consult 5,000 m, Grand round 9,000 m, Case report 14,000 m. Watch your doctor ride the lift down through the hospital as you score.
  • 7Abbreviations count: T1DM, AKI, CKD, PE, ACS, SAH, GCA, BPPV, PCOS and hundreds more.
