tinyE: And now my 2nd attempt.
I think this one is a little better laid out. I added another reception desk and another pharmacy.
Matewis: This looks like a ton of fun. Is this the campaign, or a custom game? How do you feel does this compare to theme hospital?
Btw, ever play Startopia?
The beginning is more or less Theme Hospital but with way better graphics, sounds, more options.
And I love it. Slow, really not that difficult, but that's what I want. It's just enough of a challenge that it's fun but also relaxing. My life is so frantic now with the tourist season that in my spare time I don't want to play something rage inducing.
As far as the campaign, it's hard to say. They give you an empty building and let you take it from there, though certain things will happen that might dictate what you do. The first hospital (spoiler) gets flooded with Light Headed victims, which means build more treatment rooms for that, and fewer for other illnesses. I'm guessing this will change as I move up. Once you get a high enough rating with a hospital you can move on to a bigger tougher one, though you can always go back to an older one and mess with that.
I'm not sure about a pure sandbox mode, I don't see one, but they are adding DLCs all the time.
WAIT I just found an article. Evidently there is a pure sandbox mode that becomes available after you pass the first three hospitals. I'm only on the second one so I haven't seen it yet.
