Gameplay

The game uses an isometric management view where players place rooms such as reception, waiting areas, diagnosis offices, pharmacies, and treatment wards. Patients move through a chain of checks and treatments based on their symptoms, while staff members must be assigned, paid, and kept motivated. Progress is driven by scenario goals, hospital value, cash flow, and reputation, with emergencies, breakdowns, and epidemics adding pressure throughout each stage.

Characters

None

The game focuses on hospital management rather than fixed story characters.

Strategy

Start by creating a compact and efficient diagnosis flow, then expand only when income is stable. Place related rooms close together to reduce walking and queue times. Keep enough doctors, nurses, and janitors on duty, and raise wages when staff morale drops. Use loans carefully and avoid overbuilding expensive treatment rooms before the hospital can support them.

Cheats

No cheats or unlockables available

Tips

Tips and tricks

  • Efficient room placement is one of the biggest factors in keeping patients moving.
  • Invest in diagnosis early so expensive treatments are not built too soon.
  • A clean hospital with enough toilets and maintenance coverage prevents many problems.
