Only played through the first level so still initial impressions but while it's obviously the kid's glove stage I was able to see how it's actually possible to get things wrong and lose later on (my main criticism of Theme Hospital being that it was basically impossible to lose).

Rimworld is uh, not really like Prison Architect. Outside the art style for the colonists I suppose.

It's the same management sim genre.

Tropico is the only game that I can think of has really been keeping the genre alive for the last decade.

Yeah I'm also convinced that 90% of the game is knowing that GP's offices are the nexus of all patient movement and designing around that.

Is it just me or does TPC not have a staff screen where you can easily scan and assign/remove permissions to do jobs to everyone like you could in TPH? The only way I've found it to go to each staff member individually.

On the one hand it's annoying that templates are a bit worthless this time around, on the other I very much am in favour of the fact that they've worked hard to make sure that each campus is different enough that you can't just cookie cutter your way through them.

e: low key top tip: people don't do jobs between academic years, but they will look after their own needs. Take a couple of months out before mashing the start year button so everyone has time to sleep shower and eat.

I don't think this is a game you can mainline. I'm similarly on map 10 and just burnt out on having to shuffle rooms around as I expand the campus. Time for a break.

It's weird how some of the administration stuff is actively worse. Why do I have to assign/unassign jobs individually for every staff member?
