THE COFOUNDERS OF TWO POINT STUDIOS CHECK IN WITH THEIR LOVE LETTER TO THEME HOSPITAL

The Doctor Will See You Now

Bullfrog’s Theme Hospital was a big deal in the late Nineties, appearing on PC and later PlayStation and garnering a cult following.

Two ex-members of Bullfrog, Gary Carr and Mark Webley have now formed a new company, Two Point Studios, along with Ben Hymers and their first release is an obvious tribute to the classic Bullfrog game. We made an appointment to learn more.

How does it feel making a spiritual successor to Theme Hospital after all these years?

Gary Carr: Never felt better! It really feels like we are making something that we are all very passionate about. It feels very natural and instinctive to be doing this right now.

What benefits does the isometric viewpoint offer?
