CorsixTH, the open source game engine for Theme Hospital has a fresh update out

Quoting: KetilBoth CorsixTH and Theme Hospital in dosbox are fun, but I would still say that the original in dosbox is slightly better. Corsixth is getting close though.

The primary advantages to use CorsixTH:
- they corrected numerous bugs from original game
- you can natively launch the game and it benefits modern computer power and configuration

Even 20 years later I have very much fun to play this game, it's rare.
