Epic Games Store Prescribes Fun with Free Game of the Week: Two Point Hospital
This week, Epic Games Store is handing out a dose of nostalgia and hilarity with its free game of the week: Two Point Hospital. Developed by Two Point Studios and published by SEGA, this spiritual successor to the classic Theme Hospital invites players to build, manage, and expand their own healthcare empire—complete with bizarre illnesses, eccentric staff, and a healthy dose of British humor. Normally priced at $29.99, the game is free to claim until June 19th at 10:59 AM ET.
In Two Point Hospital, players take on the role of hospital administrator in the quirky world of Two Point County. The goal? Cure patients suffering from fictional ailments like “Light-Headedness” (where their heads are literal light bulbs) and “Mock Star” (a Freddie Mercury impersonation syndrome), all while keeping the hospital profitable and patients moderately happy. The game blends strategic planning with comedic chaos, requiring players to design efficient layouts, hire and train staff, and respond to emergencies—all while managing budgets and reputation.
Critically acclaimed for its charm and depth, Two Point Hospital holds an 83 Metacritic score and a “Very Positive” rating on Steam. It’s a must-play for fans of management sims, especially those who appreciate a tongue-in-cheek approach to the genre. With multiple DLCs available for those who want to expand their hospital empire even further, this freebie is a perfect entry point into the Two Point universe. Whether you’re a seasoned sim veteran or just looking for a lighthearted distraction, this week’s Epic Games offering is worth checking out.
You can grab it now on the Epic Games Store. Just don’t forget to wash your hands. 🧼🩺
