Two Point Hospital’s charm doesn’t just come from its pleasant graphics, it also stems from its sense of humour. Thankfully anything that you research in one mission carries over to the next. Meaning you’ll be researching new comical and efficient diagnosis and treatment spaces. Or it could be a mystery disease that requires several steps to diagnose and treat. It could be an earthquake that damages your hospital. These are handily divided into what is necessary for the room to function and what is available to help it be more efficient.Īs the game progresses you’ll encounter new challenges that shake things up. Once happy you move onto items like desks, cabinets, and bookshelves. You’ll start by drawing out the floorspace with simple drag and drop. Tools for drawing out rooms and placing furnishings are simple and intuitive. Luckily Two Point Hospital comes with many graphs, floor charts and reports that all detail what your hospital is lacking. It’s all a juggling act that requires planning and balance. This causes queues to form, so your hospital will need things to help keep visitors happy, as well as provide top-notch facilities. But most of the time this is a lot of time, with patients going to different rooms for several tests and eventual treatment. Sometimes this can be as simple as a trip to the GP and then off to the injection room for a quick stabbing. In order to have a successful hospital and progress through the game, you’ll need things to run smoothly and make lots of money. All of this is wrapped up in bright colours and a goofy, cartoon style that is reminiscent of Theme Hospital. New diseases, problems, challenges, and awkwardly shaped buildings are thrown into the mix at a steady pace. As you progress things become more and more taxing. You’ll be eased into the role initially by starting in a small hospital and only a couple of illnesses to worry about. From designing internal layouts of every room in each building right down to hiring, training and firing staff. Two Point Hospital puts you firmly in charge of running a hospital.

But does it breathe new life into the genre or should it be slapped with a DNR? Someone Call Me a Doctor! Two Point Hospital is the spiritual successor to the 1997 classic - Theme Hospital.
