Too restricted – Operate Now: Hospital Review

Like all others have said, the recruitment tool for staff is broken. I have been playing for a few weeks and money isn’t too hard to come by anymore. But all I can recruit are duplicates. The game’s fix is to give you cv credits or whatever.... but you need a ton of those to get anything useful. Surgeries are repetitive. There are only 6 or so different ones, and I have done them all so many times I don’t care to anymore. There seems to be no reasoning to where patients are placed. Especially in the second hospital. I have two recovery rooms. If I have a nurse assigned to only one of them, The game will send patients to the other one. The latest update added a new event. I like that the event was a new game style, but it was not done very well. It was similar to the food games where a customer places an order, and you have to prepare it. Prep mean grabbing the product, processing it, and serving. As the game progresses, new products are added, which take additional processing. There was no way to upgrade your nurse. Her walking speed was as always the same, and she could only carry one item. There were some single use upgrades, like to fling product instead of walking it to the station, but you have to buy them.... with hearts. All the pop up graphics in the game would cover up something else that you needed to see. And as the game progressed, it was just so repetitive it became boring. It isn’t a bad idea for a game, it just needs a lot of work and better development and testing.
