About the game
What you do in a play session
Clinic Expansion: Medical Dossier 2 arrives as the second major add‑on to the well‑liked base game Clinic. Packaged inside a thematic medical dossier, the supplement introduces two new large tiles for the main board that unlock extra abilities for the nurses. They can now treat patients using "medical pulls," a mechanic that adds a strategic twist to the healing process. Among the new patient types are the "Elders," who reside in the newly added Hospice. Represented by 16 slow‑moving grey cubes, they demand more attention and resources to cure. To meet this demand, the game includes a pharmacy with 25 empty medical pills in four colours, purchasable during the action phase. Player‑specific pieces for the new buildings also arrive, letting each participant expand their clinic in a personalized way. The expansion retains the core pick‑up‑and‑deliver and simulation mechanics, but raises the complexity by adding longer routes, new treatment requirements, and more strategic investment decisions. Playtime stays around two hours, suitable for 2‑4 players already fond of the original experience. Component wise, the box contains tiles, cubes, pill tokens and revised rule cards, all matching the clinical aesthetic of the base game. If you enjoy planning patient flows, optimizing resources, and taking on the extra challenge of caring for the elderly, Medical Dossier 2 adds a satisfying depth without upsetting the well‑balanced rhythm of Clinic.
