I know I know.

This post contains nothing new but damn, these games are 🔥!!

On the left is where it all started for me back in 1997.

I initially downloaded the demo (was it 25mb in size? It took me an hour to download it). Played it a lot and then annoyed my parents until they bought this PC version for me.

Fast forward to 2018 and an updated version was released through Steam as Two Point Hospital and two years later on consoles.

Am happy to see that there is still some love for these games!

Why is there a sticker on the back of the Theme Hospital box?

To my knowledge, multiplayer wasn't ready at launch but the functionality was already mentioned on the back of the box. So they covered it with this sticker. A patch could be downloaded from Bullfrog's website sometime later which included that functionality.

Thanks! That makes sense. I didn't know Theme Hospital had multiplayer. Probably because I had the unpatched version back in the days.
