That’s not a joke, by the way, there is literally a special bed that lovers will jump on. Who knows? A few friendships may even become romantic, leading to them sneaking away and jumping up and down on a special bed. Sharing dorms, having a chat over an age-appropriate milkshake in the student union, or competing in a friendly game of darts - it’s all important to any student’s well-being. Another huge part of making students happy is giving them the means to create and maintain relationships. There’s no other way to describe this gameplay loop than… strangely wholesome, and we’re completely smitten with it. Short term you’ll have more money, absolutely, but unhappy students may drop out, and as stated above, a poor reputation will absolutely kill your university. You can cram your students into overcrowded dorms, give them the smallest possible robot-building room that the game will allow, and a student lounge where the best bet for entertainment is to stake out a good spot at the staring window, but you’ll not do well from it. Many management sims rely on (or at least encourage) reactionary and exploitative tactics, but with Campus that’s the polar opposite of what you want to be doing. This leads to lower revenue, fewer resources to make things better for future students, and the inevitable debt that comes from frantically taking loans from Smell My Cash. But the trick is less about rinsing your younglings for all the cash that they carry and kicking them out the door as quickly as possible instead, your reputation as a university is king, and struggling, unhappy, or failing students will result in fewer applications the following academic year. The premise begins very simply: you have a university campus where you can build classrooms, lecture halls, dormitories, student lounges, everything prospective uni-goers might want (and need) to graduate. Capitalism and management sims go hand-in-hand, what can you do? But does this freshman venture pass with flying colours, or is it little more than a dropout? If the name hadn’t made it clear already, rather than running a hospital for money, Two Point Campus has you running a university campus… for money. After the excellent Two Point Hospital released on Switch moments before the world was rocked by a global pandemic, Two Point Studios are at it yet again with Two Point Campus.
