As with alot of old school games, Them Hospital fits into that love it or hate it catagorey. Me? I love it. I love the little exploding heads, the shotgunning mice the cure patient, kill patient thing, I love it.

The way theme hospital manages to be fun is by NOT basing itself on a real hospital. And the latest hospital tycoon, proves this with stylish dancing levels of crap which before man had never seen. Instead you get some way of real Hospitals like surgerys and GPs and pharmacys, but then comes inflation chambers, where you head is deflated,slack tounge clinic, where tounges that come down to your waist get sliced off and baldenning rooms, where those of us dieing of baldness get elvis hair (WOOHOO), where we will later return to the hospital to be cured for king syndrome (WOOHOO). No I'm not joking.

This game, with it's some what proffesional look has an informal play to it. It has little patient jokes, little anouncements and little visual puns that will keep you happy for hours. One thing though. This game was made in Britain, where we have free hospitals as they are goverment run. I could literaly fall over and brake my leg now and know i could see a doctor today or tomorow, depending on how many people are smoking and eating burgers at the time of injury and thus are holding up our ques (maybe this game should cure fatness and smoking addiction?) and not have to pay a penny. Why therefore do the patients have to hand out the best part of 1 grand so a man can sit in a couch of relative comfort and go, "Mate you look like a prat, get a haircut and a change of clothes".
