Horrors — this game genre has come a long way over its existence: from pixelated scares to true masterpieces capable of making your blood run cold. However, there is a special category — games that don't just frighten with jump scares, but press on the psyche, distort reality, and make you doubt your own sanity. That's exactly what this collection is about.

Medicine is closely connected to our lives. The science of healing has brought relief to the sick throughout history, and with the advancement of technology, it has also captured the interest of gamers. Games about doctors and hospitals often combine several genres at once. Just like real medical professionals, we study symptoms, make diagnoses, and treat patients — and sometimes even manage entire hospitals. And that’s only a small part of the possible scenarios. In this selection, we’ve included games that are connected to medicine in one way or another. Many of them stood out thanks to their engaging mechanics and earned recognition from players at launch, eventually becoming classics. We’ve also added a few unexpected projects that offer a unique take on the medical theme and may surprise you. You might have come across some of them before — but overlooked them. For convenience, we’ve divided medical games on PC and consoles into clear categories: hospital management (tycoons), doctor simulators, story-driven RPGs, horror games, and unconventional projects. At the end, we’ve answered popular questions — such as which hospital games are free and relevant, what the best simulator is as of 2026, and what else you can play in similar genres.

Unlike the second part, Pathologic 3 is primarily a psychological thriller with nonlinear storytelling in the spirit of Disco Elysium. Now, you don't have to survive in a plague-ridden town; instead, your task is to help the remaining citizens make it to the next morning. And trust me: this is much harder than just searching for food and shelter, as the protagonist will be burdened with a mountain of responsibilities that will drive not only him but you as well crazy. In this review, we’ll discuss whether it’s worth playing Pathologic 3 if you’re new to the series, how difficult its gameplay is, and how Ice-Pick Lodge addressed the mistakes after the unsuccessful launch of the second game.
