Description

Although he was born into a time when illness was viewed as a punishment from the gods to be treated with religious practices, Hippocrates saw natural causes behind patients' illnesses. Attributing sickness to poor diets and environmental factors, Hippocrates used a natural approach to treatment, relying on rest and basic medicine. But now, Hippocrates is an old man nearing the end of his life and his hopes to keep medicine grounded in science rest on the next generation of physicians.

In this game, you take on the role of a physician leading a team of doctors to heal the sick and treat the wounded, while maintaining a high standard of professionalism. The player who can balance all the elements efficiently will find themselves a worthy successor to Hippocrates and winner of the game!
