CorsixTH is an open-source reimplementation of the 1997 Bullfrog business simulation game Theme Hospital, written in Lua and C++. It faithfully recreates the original while adding modern OS support, high resolutions, and quality-of-life improvements, requiring original game assets to run.

Use cases

  • play Theme Hospital on modern Windows, macOS, or Linux
  • run Theme Hospital at high widescreen resolutions
  • complete the full Theme Hospital campaign with bug fixes
  • play a classic hospital management sim without the original engine's compatibility issues
  • contribute to or mod an open-source game remake

When to choose

  • you own the original Theme Hospital (CD or GOG/EA copy) and want to play it on modern systems
  • you want high-resolution, cross-platform versions of the classic game
  • you want an actively maintained remake with a full playable campaign

When to avoid

  • you don't own or can't obtain the original Theme Hospital game data files
  • you want a fully original game rather than a remake of an existing one
  • you need a game that runs without any external proprietary assets
