Using a filemanager copy the HOSP folder to the ThemeHospital folder created previously. In my case the data files are on the CD in a directory called HOSP and I installed it into my home directory.

You then need to copy the data files onto your computer. You can buy from various stores, such as Game or available online. Then add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list (this needs to be added as root by using sudo before your editor): If you have a similar distribution derived from Ubuntu then this should still work (eg Linux Mint). The following archives are based on Ubuntu Linux. Installing CorsixTH (Theme Hospital) for Ubuntu Linux It should be possible to compile by first installing the original ffmpeg and associated libraries, but if you are happy with a slightly older version then you can instead install from pre-installed binaries. Github compile CorsixTH however it's not easy to compile against a recent Linux distribution as it relies on ffmpeg, but many distribution use the libav replacement which is not fully compatible (and specifically doesn't include the swresample). I'd recommend skipping down to the pre-built binary, but if you would like the latest version you can download and compile from:

The open source version of the game engine is called CorsixTH, but it's only provided in source code which can be tricky to compile. It's a fun game with a comedy twist with made-up illnesses and humorous cures. You get to build the different rooms, employ the staff and engage in medical research to find new cures. In Theme Hospital you are the manager of a new hospital. I already had a copy of the Theme Hospital for Windows from many years ago and the open source version has brought an old game back to life as it will not run on modern versions of Windows.

In this case it's an open source version of a classic which works on Linux, but you need the data files from the original Windows only game. It's even less that I'd recommend a game where you need to buy the Windows version to play it on Linux. It's not often I write about running games on Linux, although that is likely to change.
