Some people say project hospital is cheaper and more satisfying. I have it but havent gotten around trying it yet. I recall the selling point is that it was more serious than TH or TPH. I also recall reading that the economic sim was surprisingly dead on.

Personally, it always seemed too expensive for my liking, but I bought it on the sale despite my computer not being able to run it. Even though Theme Hospital seems awfully silly in hindsight, it has a lot of nostalgia value and a special place in my heart - even if I'm pretty sure I only played a demo of it as a kid.

Tbh I got the Project Hospital thing because of the alleged realism, yet have been a bit reluctant to launch it because of the very same reason: I play games to chill out/relax, and its too reminiscent of my day job 🤣

Fixed that for you!  :P

Remember: "Everything is easy if you're not the one that has to do the work!"

EDIT: Well, missed the sale, not spending full price.  Hm, maybe I should check out Project Hospital, I found the overall silliness of Two Points Hospital to be a turnoff.

I've played both, and I do find I enjoy the verisimilitude of PH more than the silliness of TPH.
