    Hey guys,

    Without a shadow of a doubt, theme hospital is one of, if not THE best PC games ever made. I used to play it all the time as a kid...

    And so I decided to buy it the other day. It was on sale for £2.99 and my other one was long gone. After installing the patch I realised there was a multiplayer option. "COOL!" I thought and persuaded my friend to buy it who also loved the game.

    But neither of us can figure out how to get the multiplayer working. I mean theres no bit for IP addresses or anything like that. Does anyone know how to do this?


    I will be eternally grateful if someone can help me out


    Thanks

    Theme Hospital was definitely The game for about a year in our house.
    I remember patching it but we never played multiplayer because we only had one PC.
    It's not a phone-your-friend type, is it?
    What does Google have to say?

    I saw the game posted on the underdogs abandonware site a long while back. Maybe you should ask over there.

    It is possible that the games' multiplayer is IPX connection only and no TCP/IP.

    Ahh...theme hospital! I'd also recommend SimTower if you love this game. Two classics that are in my book.
