Challenge Mode - Free DLC coming soon!
Does death tickle your fancy but your “friends” keep asking you to change the topic of conversation? The free Challenge Mode DLC is coming soon to satisfy your frankly bizarre tastes with mortality rates that only a Hardcore Hospital Gamer can subdue! If harrowing difficulty isn’t enough, Challenge Mode also brings shiny, golden trophies for the fraction of Directors who succeed.

MORE PATIENTS = MORE DEATH
Infection rates have surged and HEAL’s “KPI safeties” were switched off because they were illegal, so keep an eye on the shuttle bays – the goddamned patients are coming in hordes!

MUTATING CONDITIONS
Conditions have begun to mutate into deadly new strains, and it’s a race against time to research the cures before your hospital is flooded with death and disaster. Put those nerds in the Research Lab to work before it’s too late!

KEEP UP OR LOSE
Every mechanic has been tuned to provide a more challenging experience from the baseline difficulty. With adjustments to spawners, patient needs, economic balance, patient health, and more, you’ll need to utilise every tool to succeed.

Challenge Mode is our response to your masochistic requests for more difficulty, suffering, and general misery. Built to be unforgiving and push players to utilise their full toolset, it’s intended for those who want their Galacticare experience to have a little more bite to it.
Directors, are you ready? Challenge Mode DLC is coming soon
