Amateur Surgeon Edgar Level

Is anybody playing Amateur Surgeon on their iPhone? I've got to the Edgar level and I can make the first "incision," but then when it comes time to open up the liver I can't get the cut to open.

Neither the pizza cutter nor the chainsaw have any effect on the "cut here" line. It doesn't even give me the "miss" message. So I don't know what to do.

iMac 2.8 Ghz, 4 GB, Mac OS X (10.5.6), 2.5 iPhone (8 GB 2.2)

Nobody playing this? Or is it a secret?

Never played it, but I understand it has a help menu. Have you tried that?

Thanks. I've already played about 13 levels to get that far. So I'm pretty familiar with the basics. It just seems to stop working at this level.

It shows a dotted yellow line which always has meant either pizza cutter or chainsaw. Just can't get it cut open.

I just played it on the adult swim website and the level plays pretty much as I would expect.

So I'm wondering if there is a bug in the iPhone implementation?

I guess you already figured this out yourself -- but just in case: A few (very few) of the yellow lines are slightly off from their touch-regions. You can spot this when you look very closely when you start to cut along the line: Like one or two yellow dashes are left out from the side where you started to cut. Just move your finger back to the left-out ones then back in the original direction.

Cheers,
