    Finally, a time-management style of game that doesn't revolve around the culinary arts. Developers Gameinvest have created Sarah's Emergency Room and are attempting to move it onto the PlayStation Network, among other places, boasting that the game "revives the time management genre with fun, challenging levels and a frenetic pace with simulation management skills." We'll just see about that.The game is just what it sounds like -- you're a poor college student and you've landed a gig as a nurse. Take care of every patient as they come into the hospital with the correct tools and such. It's most likely Diner Dash with less food and more needles. Gameinvest is seeking a publisher and distributor, so when they find one, expect more details to emerge.

    Portugal probably doesn't spring to mind as a hotbed of video game development, but the strangely named GameInvest is based in beautiful Lisbon and its first title, Sarah's Emergency Room, "revives the time management genre with fun, challenging levels and a frenetic pace with simulation management skills." The game is being developed for the Nintendo DS, Wii, PlayStation Network, Xbox Live Arcade and PC platforms and allows you to assume the role of a graduate nursing student named Sarah as she moves from California to manage a busy emergency room in Arkansas. There "she discovers that managing an emergency room is a bit harder than she expected." Nothing like gender stereotyping with a female nurse who thinks life is hard. What's next, Sarah's Lunch Rush Hour where she runs coffee and waffles?
