Kinda stupid queestion, but I came back to the game after a while. And just as I was about to finish Simpleton level, I had to take out the laundry. I assumed that going to the charts will pause the game, like in other RTS games I played.

But it didn't - the game kept on. By the time I came back, I lost one room and one Doctor - and it appear in this level You have to rely on doctors You have from the begginning. Thus making the level unwinnable.

So tell me, How to pause the game? Because there is nothing more infuriating that losing the game not by Your fault.

It doesn't have a pause option, but the game speed is configurable so you can slow it down to an absolute crawl.

You can always save the game and load it if you have to go...

Actually there is a pause key - just press "p".
