Story time! This game was fantastic back in 1997 when it was released. I was visiting my Dad's house. In an attempt(successful at that) to impress his son he rarely got to see, he pulled out a zip disk 100 from a desk and plopped it into the zip drive. What did it have installed on it, asked nobody? Theme Hospital. I spent the better part of my 3 week visit playing this game. In hindsight that's kinda sad for my dad, but I didn't care, I was 13 and had an awesome game to play. My point is, if you have your 13 year old son visiting for a short while, probably best to find a game he will consume faster, because you wont see him again until it's time to take him to the airport.
