Play Theme Hospital Online

Theme Hospital is Bullfrog Productions’ 1997 hospital-management game. Build treatment rooms, hire staff and keep the hospital functioning while handling unusual fictional illnesses.

Each level asks you to turn an empty building into a working hospital. Patients need reception, diagnosis and treatment, while staff require sensible workloads and access to the rooms they need.

Money, space and patient flow are connected. Expanding too quickly can leave expensive rooms idle, but too few diagnosis or treatment facilities create queues and reduce the hospital’s effectiveness.

Review the browser player’s mouse and keyboard controls. Start with reception, a GP’s office and the basic facilities required by the current level rather than filling the entire building immediately.

Hire enough doctors, nurses, receptionists and handymen to keep essential rooms open. Watch queues and move or duplicate bottleneck rooms when patients wait too long.

Balance treatment income against wages, construction and equipment costs. Read the level messages and objectives before spending heavily on optional rooms.
