For my un-essay project, I created an osteology-focused version of the game Operation. I started out by creating a working game board using a simple circuit, so the game would light up and buzz just like the real Operation. I then used clay to make five bones and incorporated as many anatomical features as I could into each piece. The goal of the game was to identify each bone through its characteristics. I wanted to make something that would be easy for anyone to understand, even if they were not familiar with anatomical terms. I included an instruction manual that explains how to identify each piece based on its features. These instructions give a brief description of anatomical terms, as well as an overview of the function of each of the bones I included in the game.
