DESCRIPTION

The Health Ministry of Theme World needs an administrator to run their Hospitals. They have had some difficulty finding the right person for the job, because some of the ailments suffered by potential patients are rather odd. Diagnoses such as Bloaty Head, Transparency, King Complex and Hairyitis are common, and the well-staffed Hospital will have to employ Doctors with adequate skills to diagnose and cure these diseases, as well as have the specialized equipment needed to treat them on-site.

However, Doctors and equipment are not all that the successful administrator will have to consider. Receptionists need to be present to queue patients to the right rooms. Handymen must be employed to water the plants and clean up any Vomit Waves that break out, and to repair any Boilers that break down. Prices for diagnosis and treatment must be set competitively, and drugs must be researched to advance medical treatments. In addition, the administrator must plan the layout of the entire Hospital, purchasing and constructing new rooms as needed, and supplying them with the necessary machinery and creature comforts to attract new patients to the facility.

If successful, the administrator will go on to plan a new Hospital, with access to new facilities and machinery used to treat the over 30 strange diseases he will encounter throughout the game. If unsuccessful, the administrator can expect to be dismissed in poverty and disgrace. ~ James W. Brumbaugh, All Game Guide
