Theme Hospital

AKA: My childhood. Love this game, so much. Charming and funny with a pretty decent difficulty curve. The emergencies really help keep things fresh in the later levels, especially once you *think* you've got things figured out.

Probably the last thing anyone would think of when picturing a 'fun game' would be a hospital management sim, but just five minutes of this charming gem would make you realize how wrong you were. Theme Hospital's quirky irreverence keeps the game lighthearted and accessible, yet it manages to retain gameplay that is engrossing, in-depth, and at times, quite tense. Diseases such as 'the squits' may give a few chuckles, but you'll soon regret not paying attention to staffing levels once an epidemic strikes and patients are dying out in the corridors. And just when the city mayor was making an official visit, too! With its unique humour, colourfully cartoonish visuals, and addictive gameplay, Theme Hospital is a classic that never gets old, and will keep pulling you back for more.

The humour and gameplay are very well matched in this simulation game with a very clear UI and clear campaign that never overwhelms nor patronises you. First rate.

I consider all Bullfrog products solid gold. They had in its time a creativity and commitment to your products. This is a Hospital simulator with a lot of humor, very easy to understand but a difficult that increase in the advance of stages. There are some new really good games that like to relive this classic, but this one is the masterpiece. For so low price I recomended.

I loved this game as a teen... I love builder games in general and this one has a great sense of humor. Plus, you can slow it down to really examine the details and address problems before they get too out of control. Why are all the doctors to hire so horrible?? Haha. Quirky and fun stuff!
