The best simulation games on Switch

If there’s one thing simulators have in common it is the ability for them to take a job or activity that sounds dull and makes it an intensely addictive experience. Case in point, Two Point Hospital. We never thought managing a hospital of all institutions could be so fun. This is essentially Sim Ciy except zoomed in on just a single building. You will design the hospital itself, manage the staff, and try to care for as many patients as possible. You need to pay attention to your patients’ hunger and thirst, take care of all your staff’s needs, and try to research cures. You can even run multiple hospitals at once as you get more advanced. All the diseases are humorous and light-hearted, like having Mock Star and becoming Freddie Mercury impersonators, so it doesn’t take itself seriously in the slightest.

If Sim City wasn’t your first simulation game, odds are it was RollerCoaster Tycoon. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is a remastered of the last numbered entry in the series with all the DLC bundled in. Just like the original, this game lets you build and manage your very own theme park. You can go through the career mode where you are given specific objectives to complete to pass stages, but also is the first to introduce a sandbox mode that lets you build with no time or money restraints. While managing a park is fun enough, the real draw is designing your own rides, which this game lets you do with almost endless options.
