Simulation games can be intimidating beasts but here running a hospital has never been so welcoming. Most impressively, Two Point Hospital features an excellent tutorial system, guiding you through its many elements at an approachable rate. Quintessentially British by nature, Two Point Hospital’s comedy punches up against bureaucrats and politicians alike, taking the piss out of a not-so-fictional setting where profit margins are far more important than people’s health. Populated with cheesy Wallace and Gromit-like plasticine characters, deadpan surrealist radio commentary, and ridiculous made-up illnesses to cure – your time overseeing hospitals will be anything but dull. Immediately from boot-up, Two Point Hospital establishes a delightfully off-beat sense of humour. However, you won’t need nostalgia to recognise a terrific game here. Having not played Theme Hospital back in the day, I don’t get the nostalgia vibes many others might from this medical outing. Made by Britain-based Two Point (the console ports aided by Red Kite Games), comprised of team members who worked on the classic Theme Hospital, Two Point Hospital seeks to tap into the niche hospital management market neglected in recent years. With Two Point Hospital, we have a genuine contender for not only the console’s best sim game but also the best port, full-stop. Ever since Cities Skylines’ rocky performance on Nintendo Switch back in 2018, we at Vooks have been eagerly anticipating a large-scale simulation game to nail the landing.
