About Monsters and Medicine

Monsters and Medicine is a turn-based puzzle game where adaptation is key; players try to build and expand their own hospital while injured monsters are knocking at the door, wanting treatment.

In Monsters and Medicine, you play the role of a hospital administrator, trying to build and grow your hospital quickly and efficiently to deal with the ever increasing number of patients lining up every morning. To do this, you will have to strategically build up your hospital in order to address what you deem to be your most pressing concern. Each morning, patients will queue up outside your hospital and try to find a place inside to be cured. However, if one of them can’t find a bed they’ll stop and wait, and everyone behind them will have to wait as well. So do you try and optimise your hospital for one type of disease and treat the pesky patient that will hold up your queue yourself? Or do you build your hospital to treat as broad a number of diseases as possible and sacrifice greater capacity and efficiency?

Features

  • Easy-to-learn but difficult-to-master gameplay.
  • Original art style with monsters you’ll learn to love.
  • Awesome music to keep you in the zone.
  • 100 hand-crafted replayable levels.
  • Unlockable endless mode with randomly generated levels – play forever!

Monsters and Medicine is an original take on puzzle games with Theme Hospital vibe and cute characters, easily explained clever mechanics and a lot of levels with increasing difficulty. #casual For more quick reviews please [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/6972871]follow my curator[/url].

Charming game play with a nice puzzle mechanic. If you want a pure puzzle where you can win every time, this isn't it, but a casual player will find satisfaction when winning a level. The monsters are so cute, how can you not help them?

Lovely little game with great graphics and sound and interesting mechanics. My only complaint is that sometimes RNG will kick you in the pants and there's nothing you can do but restart. But even losing is fun!

Fun for an hour or two, but by the time new monsters and new gameplay mechanics stop showing up you have seen all this game has to offer. The random nature of the game also means that some matches are simply unwinnable. Cute graphics, solid concept (though hardly original), but lacking in gameplay depth that can counteracts the randomness. I can't give a negative rating to an 11-year old indie game (that was clearly made with love) with only 2 Steam reviews, so consider this a hesitant recommendation.

Though the idea is charming, the game mechanics are so irritating I just can't recommend it.
