How it feels

A methodical turn-based puzzle game where you strategically build and manage a hospital to treat an ever-growing queue of injured monsters.

What players say

Players enjoy the charming art style and music, but opinions are split on the mechanics: some find the turn-based strategy rewarding, while others are frustrated by the randomness that can make some levels unwinnable with no way to adapt. The game is fairly short, with most seeing all it offers in a few hours.
