Pet Healer: Vet Hospital

The most developed veterinary set in this collection, because it has an economy. Treating animals pays, payment buys equipment, and equipment unlocks illnesses you previously could not address.

That chain gives the clinic a progression curve. Early patients are limited by what you own rather than by your skill, so the interesting decision is which piece of equipment to buy next — and the answer depends on what has been walking through the door.

New medicine arrives the same way, so the range of treatable conditions grows steadily.

1. Treat the patients you have the equipment for.
2. Collect the coins each case pays.
3. Buy the equipment that unlocks new conditions.
4. Add medicine as the clinic can afford it.

Buy equipment for the complaint you have turned away most often rather than the most expensive item available. The queue tells you what the clinic is short of if you pay attention to the refusals.
