Two Point Hospital

Two Point Hospital comes from members of the team that built Theme Hospital at Bullfrog in the 90s, and the lineage shows in every screen. You design hospitals room by room, lay out corridors and waiting areas, place decorative and functional items to keep patient morale up, and watch the entire facility breathe as patients flow through it.

The illnesses are the running joke of the series. Light-headedness, Cubism, Pandemonia, and dozens of others each require specific diagnostic and treatment rooms with their own machines. Curing one is satisfying; managing a Pandemic of a particular illness when half your hospital is already overbooked is the management game underneath the punchlines.

Staff carry distinct personality types and traits that affect efficiency and patient interaction, and the campaign scales from a small harbour-village clinic to massive multi-building campuses. Statistics screens let you track everything from cure rate to coffee-machine wait times, and end-of-year awards reward parks that have nailed the balance between profit and patient outcomes.
