Reviews from

in the past


Aufbau Strategiespiel mit kindlichem Campus Thema für die Leute den Cities Skylines einfach zu komplex ist.

Oder einfach nicht genug Geduld und Lernbereitschaft mit bringen, so war es zumindest bei mir der Fall. Two Point Campus, der Nachfolger vom beinahe gleichnamigen Two Point Hospital hat sich dieses Mal die weiterführende Bildung von Two Point County vorgenommen. In gewohnter aufbau Manier spielt man sich so von Campus zu Campus, man verdient Sterne für Missionen, bietet kuriose Studiengänge wie Clownskunde, Zauberei oder Ritterkunde an und sorgt dafür, das es seinen Studierenden gut geht. Das Spiel verzeiht einem viele Fehler und wird, nur selten anspruchsvoll so lagen man die Basics drauf hat und sich mit dem Bauen nicht übernimmt. Und auch wenn man sich mit seinem großzügigen Budget verkalkuliert, bietet das Spiel eine Kreditoption an, um seinen Campus zu rehabilitieren.

Soweit so einfach, ich als Perfektionist, der ein Spiel gerne zu 100% spielt, heißt Platin und DLCs, wenn welche vorhanden sind, habe mir das Ziel gesetzt jeden Campus, jeden Studiengang, jede Weiterbildung mit zu nehmen die geht. Mit erfolg, Spielzeit, wie schwer das Ganze war, und was die mieseste Trophäe war steht am ende. Ungefähr nach 20 Stunden Spielzeit, ab dem Campus mit der Ritterkunde hat man fast alles in diesem Spiel gesehen, selbst wer vor hat das Spiel casual zu genießen und sich auf die Kampagne konzentriert wird schnell merken „Das dauert hier alles länger als gedacht“. Spätestens wenn sich der Radiosender zum 10 mal wiederholt und man die ständig gleiche Moderation hört, ist das ein toller Zeitpunkt, um den Ton aus zu schalten und sich einen guten Podcast zu geben...

Was sich anfangs spaßig und simpel anfühlt entwickelt sich schnell zu langweilig und eintönig, zu den DLCs spare ich mir eine eigene Review, die waren bis auf „Schulgeister“ nervig und einfach nur More of the Same. Nostalgiker werden aber mit dem „Medizin“ DLC wohl ihre Freude haben, das schiebt die Campus Element so gut wie beiseite und ist quasi Two Point Hospital in mini.

Spielzeit: 93 Stunden (100%) +DLCs
Schwierigkeit: 4/10
Nervigste Trophäe: „Der alte Goldstandard“
(Erhalte 1 Stern auf dem Pointy Peak.)

Ultimately it's more of the same. If you already liked Two Point Hospital, you're going to like this too. Unfortunately I just don't think it does enough to set it apart, and some of the changes made me enjoy the game just a bit less than I enjoyed Two Point Hospital. Still a good time, very creative and fun. I still recommend it!

Fixed what I didn’t like in 2PH and it became more fun because of it.

Nunca fue tan divertido controlar la vida universitaria, y la ansiedad de los alumnos, de unos chavales. Buena secuela.

really solid management sim that succeeds in a lot of ways where Hospital felt kind of clunky or undercooked. i grew up with Theme Hospital and it's great to see the same energy return.


Este tipo de juegos no son lo mio :P

Two Point Campus tenta evoluir a fórmula apresentada em Two Point Hospital. Temos uma clara tentativa de expansão para outros temas e ambientes, mas nem tudo acaba funcionando. Embora seja divertido criarmos a nossa própria universidade, o título acaba não apresentando muita variação nos elementos de gerenciamento e o gameplay se torna repetitivo rapidamente.

Porém, para os fãs do game anterior da desenvolvedora, recomendo que testem este novo título. Pois, principalmente no quesito temática, a obra manda muito bem ao entregar aos jogadores uma experiência única de criar uma universidade com elementos peculiares e divertidos.

It's a fun management game.
On the switch oled it continues to crash, so maybe better to get on PC.

Her şey dlc olmasa daha güzel olurdu

Spent HOURS on this game and could have spent more if I wasn't stuck on the last challenge. The soundtrack and PA announcements will be stuck in my head forever.

Not entirely sure what the fanfare for these Two Point games is for, my best guess is this is what happens when fans of The Sims play something else. The only aspect of the game I find myself enjoying is the art style, which is cartoonish and bright, which really makes this game stand out from its life sim counterparts. Very average in all other aspects however, does about everything you could want a college simulation to do, minus all the unpleasant interactions with frat boys or melodramatic egirls.

So good, but so laggy and when you start getting somewhere with your campuses

A pretty fun easier going sims kinda comedy business simulation game with some issues that hold it back

Points:
Just really nice looking generally and I liked the odd differences between the college. A room looks decent every time with barely any work.
Its fun to watch the sea of A rated students.
I enjoyed slowly growing the campus's over time.
I liked all the weird comedy in the game with its bizarre degrees.
Some levels mixed it up more than others in a fun way, in the spooky dlc to unlock more space you have to defeat giant ghosts with your "ghostbusters in training" students.
The game is a bit too on the easy side
Training a staff member is basically worthless due to how long it takes, Its much easier just to go to add a staff member and keep generating new staff until you get one with much better skills, then fire the previous one.
The "beauty" of the campus is dead simple to the point i'm wondering why its even there, just throw 5 or so posters in every room and it'll be 90%.
The teaching rooms aren't very well explained, you'll need items for later on for classes that it says are cosmetic only anything when you're buying them. Also it seems to speed up learning but I can't say for sure.
I can only assume the heater system in some levels is there because theme hospital had it, again dead simple.
size limit for some rooms is also a bit annoying.
Having to spend 30 minutes building every room you need for a basic school at the beginning of every level is a bit annoying.

Generally I liked it a lot but the loop started getting a bit tiring for me. i'll probably keep playing for a bit longer though.

8/10

It’s ok.

Same formula as two point hospital, besides the schedule thing this games bring nothing new to the genre.

Divertido demais. Bom de jogar no console, me entreteve enquanto eu joguei e talvez eu volte eventualmente

Running a campus your way.

Two Point Campus is in the Two Point Hospital franchise, though this time you’re running a college campus. The idea is to meet the needs and desires of your students and run a successful school focused on yearly curriculums and bring in that sweet sweet cheddar that lets you grow your schools. Many different campuses make up the level structure here and each campus has three different goals to challenge players.

The downside of this game though is it’s not too challenging early on and I doubt it will ever get that hard. I love Two Point Hospital but I cruised through it quickly, and I already see Two Point Campus will either have to invent artificial challenges or ask for ridiculous goals. The game is a lot of min-maxing at times, but also could easily be beaten by waiting to gain more money, or just building a bigger room to maximize the level. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing.

Pick this up if you like management simulators. This is based on Two Point Hospital, but it’s a similar style to Planet Coaster or Planet Zoo, and a distant cousin of Cities Skyline. Plop down some stuff, watch your NPCs use it, and rake in some fat loot. I haven’t found it as funny as Two Point Hospital, but I’ve fully engaged with this game,yet again, and looking to play more.

easy for someone like me to get addicted too. and functionally better than i remeber school tycoon being, albeit not as charming. fun enough to click around in for a few hours.

I loved Two Point Hospital so I had to give Campus a go and it was just as good, I've completed every campus and collected all 36 stars and I had a blast, it mixes the fun of the sim with the difficulty of some of the challenge criteria to increase the campus' rank, the later campuses had me racking my brain for the logic to complete the puzzle, for terms of content there is 12 campuses with different themes and a 'sandbox' mode i'm yet to check out, the greedy player in me wanted more 'stuff' to put down on campus though so there's definitely room for DLC in that regard, it's a good little sim game overall and I hope they add more content moving forward

Two Point Campus does not have the same level of creativity and comedy with its classes as Two Point Hospital had with the illnesses in game. I still enjoyed the sim parts of the game, but honestly could have had the audio turned off the whole time.

Was fun simple sim, liked the style. Not my type of game. Easy and simple to play.

Quitando que arrastra los problemas típicos del género (tener que esperar a que pasen cosas y llegar a un punto en el que todo funciona ya en automático), es un concepto muy chulo ejecutado estupendamente.

Muy similar en cuanto a funcionamiento, interfaces y demás a Two Point Hospital, pero dando una vuelta de tuerca muy interesante y poniendo toda la importancia en los alumnos en lugar de en el funcionamiento de las instalaciones como tal.

Mantiene todo el encanto, el humor y la creatividad de su antecesor en un contexto distinto y, aunque quizá estaría bien tener algo más de variedad en algunas cosas, ofrece contenido más que de sobra para tenerte entretenido un puñado de decenas de horas.

Buen jueguito. Ojalá expandan su potencial con contenido descargable, porque la idea puede dar mucho más de sí.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aside from the typical issues of the genre (having to wait for things to happen and reaching a point where everything works by itself), it's a really cool concept that's really well executed.

Very similar in terms of how it works, interfaces and such to Two Point Hospital, but with a really interesting twist that puts all the weight on the students instead of how the installations themselves work.

It keeps all the charm, comedy and creativity of its predecessor in a different context and, although it'd be nice to have a bit more variety in some things, it has more than enough content to keep you busy for a few dozen hours.

Great game. I hope they expand upon its potential with DLC, because there's a great idea here.

was so buggy i had to stop playing :(

I originally played this game on my Nintendo Switch at some point in 2022 and that was an absolute nightmare. It literally crashed every 30 minutes and I constantly had to restart it. That was truly a terrible experience. It should be illegal for game companies to release games on a platform when the game is going to crash so often. Clearly it’s not ready. Eventually, I ended up playing it again on the Steam Deck and that was a much better experience. It runs so much better on the Deck than on the Switch. Platform issues aside, I enjoyed this game a lot more than Two Point Hospital. It was a bit easier to complete and didn't have as many unnecessary hurdles. There were no levels that felt unwinnable. Everything flowed nicely and seemed to make more sense to me. The achievements were not easy to earn, but they were very doable. This game retains the same humor style that made Two Point Hospital great. There is also more customization available in this game than in the previous game, but it still felt lacking to me. A lot of the rooms still turn out kind of ugly. I feel like a lot of the available styles in this game just don’t go well together. I wish there were more "normal" wallpapers and floors to choose from. I enjoy some of the crazier wallpapers every now and then, but I would also like the chance to just make some simple, stylish rooms. But that’s a more minor issue. Overall, this was a really fun game.

fun, but gets repetitive quickly

"Two Point Campus" entertained me for a few hours, but I didn't feel the urge to continue. Maybe it's the lack of emergencies to face? The gameplay can get much deeper than expected though, there's a lot of information to juggle with and choices are not always as immediate as it seems.


I beat this entire game within the scope of 2 days when it was featured on Steam as free for a weekend - there is just not very much content or difficulty at all once you figure out the system in the first hour or so.

However, my bigger complaint is that this lacks everything it is advertised as having (and assumed to have based on the prior Two Point game). In all the promotional material you see whacky classrooms and gadgets and silly stuff happening, much like Two Point Hospital and it's original inspiration Theme Hospital...however, with Two Point Campus there is basically just the cooking room that has any goofiness to it (which is what was featured in EVERY advertisement for it and on their steam page) and maybe the knight stuff as a "weird thing". Beyond that, it's very bland and boring with very little creativity involved in any of it - science class does boring to look at actual science type lessons, clown class surprisingly does basically nothing funny, etc. Loads of potential but ultimately a game that takes 2 days to beat and doesn't ever get past it's peak of "I guess this is okay". It's absolutely not terrible, but it's more of a maximum $15 time sink (priced at twice that) than anything more.

Mais um jogo dos criadores de Two Point Hospital. Tem um gameplay mais complexo, ao menos inicialmente, mas que combina muito bem com o novo ambiente.

É bem engraçado como o jogo anterior, e o cenário de universidade permite mecânicas e piadas completamente diferentes. E você criar salas que são fora das paredes do campus dão uma diversidade interessante.

No entanto, no geral achei menos divertido que Two Point Hospital, e menos engraçado. Acredito que o cenário do hospital permite doenças mais engraçadas e animações mais criativas nos tratamentos. Mesmo assim é um ótimo jogo que me fez rir bastante e joguei até finalizar a campanha, apesar de não estar interessado em DLCs como estive no outro jogo.

This game is a time-eater, I had to stop playing it for long periods because I would lose track of time while playing. Tycoons really get me hooked, and this one was no exception. It's accessible and challenging at the same time; getting one star is usually easy, but getting all three is a challenge, you have to optimize resources to the maximum. I like that the campuses get renewed in mechanics, and each one has something new. I've gotten three stars on all campuses except for three, and in those remaining three, I didn't because they removed the game from Game Pass XD. On the negative side, I miss more indicators of what you can change to improve results (for example, they never tell you that you have to put the bathrooms and showers next to the residences), and it can become monotonous, but that's intrinsic to tycoons, I would say. A good simulator to fulfill the fantasy of better management than your college XD.

entertaining, played it on gamepass and had some good laughs
