corsix-th — A Theme Hospital engine reimplementation.

Synopsis

corsix-th [--interpreter= luafile] [--config-file configfile] [--load= savefile] [--dump=strings]

Description

Theme Hospital was a simulation computer game developed by Bullfrog Productions and published by Electronic Arts in 1997, in which the player designs and operates a hospital.
This project aims to reimplement the game engine of Theme Hospital, and be able to load the original game data files. This means that you will need a purchased copy of Theme Hospital, or a copy of the demo, in order to use CorsixTH.
On Debian systems these data files can be packaged with game-data-packager
