along nicely and sits on very respectable 89% positive review score on steam.
Time to talk about new releases
Two point Hospital a successor to legendary Theme Hospital released on steam on 30th of
August.
As you can expect your job here is to manage and build hospital in order to generate profit
and cure some people as a side effect.
Game embraces the silliness and humour of the original title and you will have to deal
with some bizarre illnesses from light-headedness to cubism, yes light-headedness is what a
name suggest your patient's head changed into a light bulb.
You are task with a mission of building hospital from scratch, employing right staff, expanding
your business.
You need to make sure that your staff is able to diagnose the conditions, deal with patients
quickly and effectively and send them cured on their way home hopefully generating enough
profit to expand further and handle even more patients with more difficult cases to diagnose.
You will be able to train your staff leveling them up with new skills and abilities, improve
and upgrade the equipment as well as analyze market needs and demands and adjust your prices
accordingly.
You may need to marginalize some condition in order to capitalize on some mad disease
outbreak.
Game received 84% positive review score on steam out of 600 submitted and unlike 99%
of new upcoming tycoon game this is actually full release and not the early access product.
Another release this month is UniverCity it is isometric university management game that
came out in early access on 14th of August
Your job is to manage your staff, professors and students and try and build the best university
around!
You will try to build up your university solo or against friends and build many different
types of classes whilst trying to ensure students get good grades.
What I like about this game is the scale of it.
Your building plots are truly massive and you have 100s of students coming through your
doors.
It is currently in very early access but you may want to keep an eye on it.
My mate False Phoenix has a short series on it so feel free to check it out.
You should see a card in right top corner right now.
Time to move to upcoming games
Megaquarium is set to release on 13th of September this year.
Megaquarium is a game by developer of Big Pharma.
Starting with just a few tanks and the most basic of livestock, you'll grow your aquarium
to a thronging metropolis filled with hundreds of guests, tens of staff and a multitude of
different aquatic lifeforms, each with their own unique care requirements.
Game features almost 100 different marine species including fish, sharks, corals, jellyfish,
other invertebrates and even a turtle!
Players will need to decide between training their own staff or recruiting talent from
outside.
As well as on their management policy will you run very focused teams or will everyone
be able to do a little bit of everything?
You will be able to upgrade our facilities, research new stock and expand your complex.
In a meantime you will need to keep your eye on finances and ensure that you can afford
to look after all those animals safely.
Your income will depend on your customers happiness so keeping them happy is a key.
You will be able to play in campaign mode or jump straight into sandbox.
As with Big Pharma developer promises easy to learn difficult to master type of game.
To really thrive and take on the greatest challenges you'll need a lateral thinking
brain and attention to detail.
Will you group your animals by food type, water quality or something else entirely?
Will you locate your equipment in a centralised hub using pumps or spread them out embracing
the zoning system?
Another announcement comes from Honey, I joined the Cult.
Game doesn't have official release yet but we have a workable alpha and is being shown
at the events in the UK.
In Honey, I joined the Cult you are in control of your own 1970s cult.
Build and expand your base, manage your resources and make as much money out of your followers
as possible.
Your job is to create a cult brainwash and attract more followers to your cause and expend
your power.
From a first glance the game looks like prison architect on acid but as you look deeper there
is more to game to keep it original and interesting.
You are not only running small colony/ prison for your follower you also look at the ways
to legitimize your cult influence outside of your colony.
Your most trusted followers will be able to leave your camp and be send on various missions.
It will depend on your style but can include grabbing few homeless and desperate from the
street or it may be slow infiltration of political structures and expanding your standing.
As more information is released on the game I will let you guys now.
For now closed alpha 2 will be showed to publics during events in Birmingham and London over
next month.
Our final announcement comes from Parkosours.
I have showcased this game several times on the channel so I am glad to say it's going
to be released next month on 25th of September.
From developers website we can learn that Parkasaurus is a zany Dinosaur Park management
game, that challenges the player not only to provide guests with a unique dinosaur zoo
experience, but to care for their dino friends by crafting the perfect exhibits, gifting
them the cutest hats, and travelling back in time to rescue them from their demise!
Your job as a successful dino park manager will be ensuring your exhibits safety and
well being.
Each dinosaur requires a unique biosphere, which means the shape of exhibit, materials
used, ecology, plants, elevation and humidity all play a key role in whether the Dinos,
and the park, thrive...or become extinct.
You will have to wisely spend resources to build the ultimate Dino Park and turn a profit
to ensure future stability.
By reading reviews and observing your guests, fine tune the flow and arrangement of your
park to maximize the happiness of guests and Dinos alike.
You will also need to manage and train your emplyees as well as deal with various weather
and disaster events.
Finally you will be able to travel in time and snatch dinos eggs to then later hatch
them in your own facility.
Okay guys that is it in this month Indie Game News.
