The game's story is minimal and lacks depth, with missions feeling repetitive and disconnected from a larger narrative. Players noted that while the initial missions offer some variety, the overall experience becomes monotonous due to tight deadlines and limited customization options. The absence of a sandbox mode and a cohesive storyline leads to a sense of disappointment, as missions end abruptly without significant development or engagement.
- “Has nice graphics, fun story and is easy to play.”
- “When it feels like you got it finally running, the mission ends and you start a new one - disappointing.... and each hospital is very small, the places to build rooms predefined, so you can never be creative - you just build each room once, like you should and the biggest impact one the game you have by research and training your team.”
- “There was a little at the beginning of each mission but when I got to the end of the game it just ended.”
- “There wasn't much of a storyline; it seemed random.”
- “When it feels like you got it finally running, the mission ends and you start a new one - disappointing. Each hospital is very small, the places to build rooms are predefined, so you can never be creative.”

- “However, in the actual gameplay of the game, the 'character' it tries to maintain with sewing machine surgery tables, hypnotizing zombies, and attempting séances for the downtrodden and possessed, it all falls flat.”
- “What you get is shallow, paper-thin, tutorial-level gameplay mechanics across the board.”
- “So the gameplay consists of placing down one building, waiting for a meter to fill up, placing another building, waiting for another meter to fill up, repeat until all the buildings the game requires you to place fills up all the allocated space for those buildings and then it's the end of the level.”
- “It's basically a mobile game adapted to PC - definitely not worth the $3, which sounds a bit harsh, but... there's just no gameplay.”
