A gripping war-themed medical simulation game
War Hospital is a premium simulation game offered by Brave Lamb Studio S.A. that presents an elaborate depiction of the horrors of World War I from the perspective of healthcare workers. This third-person game puts players in the shoes of a surgeon working on the battlefield, who must shoulder the enormous burden of caring for injured soldiers with limited resources.
Just like Valiant Hearts, War Hospital tackles the battle not on the front line of the war zone but in a makeshift healthcare setting where medical professionals—the last line of defense—exhaust all possible means to save lives.
Become a war-time hero
In War Hospital, you will take on the role of Major Henry Wells, a retired British army medic who was re-enlisted to serve in the war. His duty is to cure injured soldiers in an improvised hospital located at the war-torn French frontier. As the head of the medical team, you must manage limited resources, such as medicine, food, and bedding, and work under pressure to attend to every patient.
The patients’ survival would heavily rely on your efficient handling of resources, effective time management, and adept decision-making. The game employs a scoring system in which you accumulate points based on how well you manage the hospital, staff, and patients. It also features a timeline, wherein you have a set amount of time to complete each level, creating a sense of urgency and challenge.
When it comes to visuals, the game displays intricate 3D graphics that encapsulate a ravaged environment. The animation is more on the gritty and realistic side rather than polished and fluid—which explains the need for a 64-bit operating system and 30 GB of storage space. Moreover, the game is infused with a dramatic soundtrack to create an intense and harrowing atmosphere.
Entertaining game with educational value
War Hospital offers a unique and creative way of exploring the dark realities of World War I. Its storyline provides a rare perspective on war, offering players a glimpse into the psychological and physical strain soldiers and medical staff faced during The Great War. Overall, the game is a valuable educational tool that helps people understand the crucial role played by medical personnel in restoring health and hope.
