Theme Hospital

Theme Hospital is a hospital management simulation released by Bullfrog Productions in 1997. Players take on the role of hospital administrator, designing clinic layouts, recruiting medical staff, and treating a host of absurd fictional ailments — from Bloaty Head to Slack Tongue. The game demands careful balance across budget management, staff training, facility upkeep, and patient satisfaction across 12 increasingly challenging hospital levels. Its distinctive British wit and deep management mechanics set it apart, earning it a lasting place as a classic of the genre.
