"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.

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.
I've seen this played by some youtubers a while ago, definitely seems a
bit like a lolrandom kinda game.
