I haven't beaten it yet but it's adorable. Very easy game, don't expect a challenge, just fun, fairly mindless clicking around and organizing a hospital in space. It's basically Two-Point Hospital/Theme Hospital re-skinned for space, the campiness is a bit better imo. It's significantly easier than those games, but it also doesn't have the exhausting, over-extended missions where you're waiting for ages for the win-game. It does some cool ideas that the other hospital games mentioned doesn't do: like consultants - allowing doctors that level up with time and go between missions. This makes them overpowered in an already almost insultingly easy game. This being said, every gamer needs a mindless game for after a hard day, and this game could serve that role well. It's also cute and thematically harmless enough for kids. The people hating on this game for being too woke... sorry no one's hugged you in a while. But it's so sad to see that a number of people are genuinely upset that there is no racial or gender oppression in this game. Or the hinting, again very harmlessly, at some queer themes as light jokes (like an alien race unfortunately picking up gender roles from Earth humans even though this alien race is sexless... you also only see this joke if you decide to read the filler content when discovering the first alien race, its not even pertinent to the gameplay, it's just for fun headcannon from anyone who decides to read extra). Much like many child cartoons that have adult jokes thrown in harmlessly for the adults in the room that go over kids heads, the very mildly adult themes in here are not exactly the first thing to jump out at younger audiencess. omg, also the bigot who got mad in these reviews that your boss in-game is black and that black patients can "afford" to go to a space hospital, just, what a terrible place the inside of your head must be. Sorry racism didn't make it all the way to space in this game (again, a game that is clearly made with younger audiences in mind). If you want your racist and mysoginistic space hospital game, stop complaining and go make it, I hope you dedicate enough of your life to it and it sells so little upon release that you just waste your terrible life on your horrible game. stop yucking others' yum, go touch grass, meet a black person, and go to therapy.

If you are old enough to remember the likes of Startopia (And the original Theme Hospital) or enjoy the Two Point series and wish it had more of a Space theme, this is probably for you.

My new favourite hospital tycoon game. Or just favourite tycoon game period. Management layer is perfect grounding: everything works smoothly, you always know what's going on, what can you do and how. I was never disoriented, lost or betrayed by game acting differently from what I wanted. Even amidst hectic crises, only thing in the way of success was my very-much-possible mismanagement. From building to restructuring, from patients to doctors, everything you want to manage, can be done effortlessly (well you still need to think, mind) and game flows in steadily crisp tempo. There's a lot of "cool" conditions to treat, specialized rooms to build, races with different traits to recruit from and so on. All this good stuff delivered with lovingly crafted, rich lore (each disease got its own substory to unlock through research, e. g.). Galacticare also has surprisingly good and gripping story with likeable characters. Elevated to pure joy by, I can't stress this enough, excellent writing and voice acting. Galacticare is comedy first and foremost, but doesn't fall the wacky hole. It revels in intelligent understated humour and layered sarcasm in the best british-like way. Which is godly mana for me. Again, it's an admirable work of writers pouring big talent into this. And again, it's exquisitly delivered by actors. There's nothing cheap, no cut corners here. On the contrary, it surprises only in positive ways. It feels almost unreal to find so polished game nowadays and it coheres with the amount of fun I had the whole time. P. S.

It's exactly what it looks like: Theme Hospital In Space. Patients come into your orbital hospital, you erect specialised rooms to treat the various absurd maladies they've acquired, it's a familiar cycle. What sets it apart from its obvious modern competitor in Two Point Hospital, aside from its spaceborne setting, is its higher focus on storytelling, with a delightfully funny rapport between a good number of characters of all races as you bounce from planet to planet. The voice acting is well-done, and there is plenty to hear in each mission. As for those missions, their settings can be remarkably varied, from patching up revellers at an over-enthusiastic music festival to healing an entire living planet that's been hit by a tanker spill. One memorable location is a hyperspace train station, forcing you to divide your operations between two opposite platforms to maximise available space on the cramped station. Certainly more variety to be found here than in Two Point. All in all, it's good fun. Maybe not particularly difficult, at least for me thus far, but I'd say it's enough to keep you engaged. Compared to Two Point, there is less emphasis placed on diagnosis, with only one scan being required before treatment, and rooms generally have a wider variety of diseases and injuries that they can treat, which can save a bit of space in the long run. One particular stand-out there is Projectile Medicine, which can do anything from heating up frozen patients to cooling down flaming patients or even just blasting foreign bodies off them with a shotgun, all with a nicely-animated rotary system for the different equipment. Room decoration has been expanded, with several distinct categories of items that must be placed to appeal to each race's particular tastes, rather than Two Point's unilateral room appeal system. 'Ordinary' bits and bobs, 'Curious' objects of the slightly gross variety, plants from across the galaxy, and art pieces are all required to keep everyone comfortable with their environment. However, mind that you do not clutter things up, as one race is rather large and requires open spaces to roam in. A challenge mode has been patched in to bump up the difficulty in every level, if you so wish.

It's Theme Hospital in space. Great gameplay and fun dialogues (kudos to voice actors!). Would buy again.
