I bought the game about a week ago, including all DLC, andI love the game. And seeing so many 1-star reviews because of a bad launch, I just had to place my own review on here. First of all the graphics. Yes, they are simplistic, but it does the job well. I had some little bugs, like new employees getting spawning in behind the desk as such, but that is temporary. They just walk through the desk and sit down. It doesnt annoy me that much. Gameplay wise, the game has allot for you. Ofcourse ya can design your own Hospital, but I was astounded in how much detail they put into this. Do not think you can build a room in a minute and be done with it. The game kinda demands you taking your time with it, making sure that all the necesarry equipent is there. After that, you can dress up the room as much as ya want. You could sink hours and hours into it. Secondly, I love the fact that you can have a "hands-on" approach when it comes to diagnosing and treating patients. It just keeps me entertained and motivated to keep playing. And with the amount of possible diagnoses (especially with the DLC) there are so many chances of misdiagnosing someone. It keeps ya on yer toes. Now why is this a four star review and not five? The lack of a GOOD tutorial. Yes, the game has one, but it DOES NOT prepare you for the campaign. The tutorial does not teach you how to approach building new rooms that well. There are three tutorials. The first one teaches you the basics. The second one teaches ya how to build, but its the bare minimum. And the third is a bit slapped together. And in yer first campaign mission, YOU CONTROL A HOSPITAL. Ya have no idea how to unlock new departments, no idea if yer staff is up to par. You go in blind. The fix to this is to download the free Doctor Mode DLC. It has a mission focused on progression. Overall its a great game. The game isnt easy, but very much worth the price. If ya like a tough management game, give the game a try.
