Hospital Tycoon review (PC) on Boomtown
I know Knifeh was addicted to Theme Hospital and this was only the other month! It's a shame this just doesn't seem to be up to scratch, could have been good!
It's a shame really because Hospital Tycoon looks like it should be good. It's well presented with good animation. The patients come in and it's obvious what's wrong with them. The illnesses are all visually appealing and humorous. The background music is a bit tedious but it's not too bad as the sound effects suit the surroundings.
You can even look through the eyes of the patients and staff, which provides a nice distraction. It's even got the basics of the hospital management genre down with the variety of illness and the types of equipment that needs to be installed and maintained. It's just a problem that most of what should be the good ideas aren't really very well thought through.
