You might not think that a hospital sim could be so funny, but remember: laughter is the best medicine!

Welcome to the GOG.com clinic! As a treatment for typical symptoms of moderngameboringus--lack of creativity, no sense of humor, and mindless repetition--we recommend a wonderful insta-cure: Theme Hospital for a co-pay of only $5.99!

Theme Hospital is a hospital management simulation. You need to fill the empty building with all sorts of hospital equipment, starting from desks and file cabinets, to ultra-sophisticated diagnostic machinery like DNA fixer or Head Inflator: you know, equipment every hospital needs. Then you hire all necessary staff members like doctors, nurses, handymen, or receptionists, and once everything’s set up, treat patients as they come in suffering from a variety of humourous illnesses, including Hairyitis, Bloaty Head, and even Slack Tongue (caused by over-discussion of soap operas!).

Theme Hospital is all about the little details: staff personalities, patients vomiting, doctors chilling in the staff room, and fantastic comedic cutscenes. Your hospital requires not only the best staff and equipment but pool tables, soda machines, radiators, and plants to keep your patients and doctors alike happy. Fans of micromanagement will be pleased, but so will fans of fun!

Do what it takes to make the world a better place: pick up Theme Hospital for $5.99 on GOG.com today!

SirPrimalform: Which is why I'm guessing it's more something about the guy's computer that's causing the problem.
To be fair, GOG have a history of not tweaking the DOSBox configs to their optimum settings. Little Big Adventure had horrible stuttering in videos on a range of computers (but not all), fixed with a single setting change. It may be different for this release (I haven't purchased it myself), but there is a precedent there.
Ooh, been wanting to play this one for a while! Looks really fun. I almost get a bit of a Dungeon Keeper vibe from it (which isn't surprising considering that they're both Bullfrog), from what gameplay I've seen at least. Going to have to pick this one up soon!

Theme Hospital intro does feature some familiar faces in the waiting room.

True, but that was more of a performance issue (I guess they didn't test it on enough lower specced or clogged up machines). The mouse thing sounds like an actual problem between DOSBox and the guy's computer though.
Does anyone have the MP3 remixed files by 'ZR' from the openTH days?

The old forum no longer exists....

I've been in contact with ZR for anyone interested and have asked him about permission to share the remix he did....

Why you always come out with games like this when I am broke! It's like you love teasing me. Shame on you GOG. Instabuy!

What a fantastic release! Theme Hospital is one of the best theme games out there. I can't wait to be hip deep in nurses again.
Thank you GOG. I wish to see all Bullfrog games here.
I love you guys right now. I have missed this game for so long (and was talking about it last night). Have it now and downloading it asap.

P.S As spindown said PLEASE release Theme Park as well.
Thanks gog!

OMG, I've been thinking about this fab game the other day! :D
Wishlisted, no spare bucks atm... but boy oh boy I can't wait to play it! ^^
Whats the difference between the DOS and the windows one? I have a CD (Sold Out i think..) one from ages ago, i believe it wasn't a DOS one.
