Theme Hospital
Theme Hospital
This game comes from the golden era of Bullfrog where single player simulation games where indeed single player. In Theme Hospital you control and develop your own hospital, find cures to deceases and strive to keep the Grim Reaper away from your corridors.
What is Theme Hospital
Like it’s mentioned above Theme Hospital is a classic hospital management “simulator” for the pc which was released back in 1997. You manage your hospital, you hire doctors, nurses, janitors and receptionists, you build diagnosis and treatment rooms, you discover new deceases and cures and you are having fun the whole time.
Why it’s Great
It is a very humorous and enjoyable game that will keep you occupied for hours upon hours with a huge amount of content and deceases to be treated. It has humour, strategy, micro-management andabove all it is FUN (I sometimes find that newer games are struggling to achieve this last one)
Where you can get it
You are in luck! Unlike our previous “Classic PC Games you Should Play” This game is easy to find since it can be bought digitally from GOG.com (no DRM attached) at:

I got Theme Hospital as part of a Bullfrog collection disc in the late 90s or so. The disc had Populous (all three versions, IIRC), Syndicate, and Theme Hospital. It probably cost me $10 or something.
Theme Hospital was the last game I tried on the disc, after I had finished Syndicate and played out the Populous games pretty thoroughly. It wasn’t my kind of game at all, I figured. Wow, was I wrong. The humour was great, the gameplay was fun, and it was a real challenge. I bought it on sale from GOG.com a little while ago and haven’t even gotten around to playing it yet but I am glad to have it in my collection.
I love the hell out of Theme Hospital and the rest of the Bullfrog games you just mentioned too!
