FREE GAME: Two Point Hospital

"Free game"... are there any words more awesome than those two? Well,
yeah... there are a lot (I'm particularly fond of 'good night's sleep'
myself). But 'free games' is still pretty neat. It's cool that I get
to say it every week.

Speaking of which...


* TWO POINT HOSPITAL
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/two-point-hospital
   It's a modern-day re-interpretation of Bullfrog's classic
   "Theme Hospital" game from 1997... and it's okay, I guess.
   It's humor sometimes feels a bit forced and juvenile, the
   gameplay can get a bit repetitive and the simulation feels
   a touch more arcade than it need be, but it's okay. I still
   think the original -- DOS-era warts and all-- is still the
   better game, but if you can't stomach the big blocky pixels
    in that one, this game is still fine.



But alas, it's now going to be a whole seven days before I can speak
those delightful words again. No, not the one about sleeping well (at
least, I sure as hell hope not!); the ones about the games! But if we
stay strong, we can weather the 168 hours until that time is here
again.
