Healthy Heart Hospital

Players take the roles of physicians who have taken control of a struggling hospital and must manage incoming patients, finances, and reputation. Play proceeds in rounds as players spend actions to treat patients represented by colored cubes; colors indicate illness type and cube counts indicate severity. Players coordinate treatments, hire staff, buy equipment, and allocate resources to cure patients while preventing the hospital from collapsing. The game is cooperative, supports 1–5 players, and includes escalating pressure from new patient arrivals and administrative challenges that force difficult trade-offs between care and pragmatism.
