Aug 7, 2022To keep it simple, Two Point Campus delivers. It’s everything fans of Two Point Studios’ works would expect. An expertly crafted management simulation experience with the perfect amount of humor, wonderfully designed characters, and charming graphics, it is a game full of heart from start to finish.
-
Aug 4, 2022Two Point Campus follows the successful formula of the studio's previous release, also offering a new and unique gaming experience. It could be the best business simulator for consoles to date.
-
Aug 5, 2022Two Point Campus makes an almost perfect copy by renewing the management game genre. Its amazing two-phase game system allows you to combine the best of both worlds: a game where you can build without stress and with ease, and a game where you can observe with pleasure the result of your work. If the phase of the school year turns out to be more idle than the summer holidays, it allows you to appreciate the excellent work on the atmosphere, the animations and the personalization of your campus. The game is funny and does not fall into the classic repetitiveness of the genre, thanks to its powerful construction tools and its scenarios that know how to renew themselves in terms of decor and gameplay. An example to follow.

Aug 4, 2022Two Point Campus might not reinvent the wheel, but this is a game that knows exactly what it is and who its audience is – and it nails it. Two Point’s tried-and-tested formula works like magic in a university setting, and the freedom it gives to players to create the campus of their dreams is unrivalled. Its attempts at humour might sometimes fall flat, but it hardly matters when everything else is so good.
-
Aug 4, 2022Two Point Campus is a delightful treat. Consistently funny, enormously satisfying, and challenging to boot, it'll take you right back to the best years of your life, or make the worst years of your life better.
-
Aug 9, 2022Two Point Campus is certainly a substantial step up from Two Point Hospital as it's a much smoother experience and features some undeniably nifty new mechanics. It goes without saying but if you enjoy these kinds of games then it's a definite must-play.
-
Oct 27, 2022Two Point Campus is a decent follow up to the Hospital version, and it could have been a great hit if not for some minor gameplay shortcomings.

PLAYAug 30, 2022Two Point Studios delivers for its second title, adding the perfect mix of challenge, humour, 8 and customisation to campus. A truly joyful experience at the University Of U. [Issue#18, p.82]

Aug 22, 2022Polished and mechanically interesting, Two Point Campus does a really good job of making further education seem exciting. The charming presentation and relaxed tone makes the grind of management easier to swallow, even with pressures like money and student satisfaction. It's not perfect with AI pathing being a slight concern, but there's enough here to keep me engrossed. It's a very likeable effort with plenty of depth to discover.
-
Aug 16, 2022Two point Campus is an easy recommendation for anyone a fan of the management sim genre. Exceptional level of detail to design and a wonderous explosion of creativity within University Life. Like its predecessor Two Point Hospital, challenges will still be present throughout each individual campus, but these challenges are worth your time. Pick up your pencil case and your red plastic cups and enroll.
-
Aug 15, 2022Two Point Campus is a good choice for those who like management and sim games, but it seems made for a very specific group of people. The courses and random activities are pretty fun, though, and the creativity to develop the game deserves a lot of praise.
-
Aug 4, 2022Two Point Campus is another excellent entry from Two Point Studios that showcases not only more of the team's penchant for humorous and accessible management sim gameplay but genuine love for the genre. With a new spin that makes for a distinctly new-feeling gameplay loop and moment-to-moment decision making there's something here for both hardcore sim fans and casual onlookers. Some missed opportunities and controller-specific issues aside, there's never been a better time to create a ton of student debt.
-
Aug 4, 2022We loved Two Point Campus. It is a great game for veterans and newcomers to the tycoon genre, and has great sense of humor. Controls (with gamepad) need some practice.
-
Aug 4, 2022A delightful, humour-infused, and very British university management simulator with Nintendo-esque levels of polish and depth that’s introduced so gently you barely notice it.
-
Aug 19, 2022Two Point Campus builds on what Two Point Hospital brought us and that is a management sim that doesn't take itself too seriously. The controls on the PlayStation 5 are well integrated, were it not for the fact that the game does have a lot of input registration issues - which can be annoying. Also, the frame rate is not always top notch and for veterans, it's pretty easy. With that said, Two Point Campus manages to offer newcomers a perfect learning curve. The audiovisual style is fine and the gameplay is a lot of fun, which makes it quite worthwhile.
-
Aug 4, 2022The lack of genuine stakes means that Two Point Campus never becomes truly gripping, but the easy, breezy vibe makes for an enjoyable, leisurely build-'em-up. It's the perfect management sim for newcomers or children or even fans of the genre who just want a palette cleanser between more challenging titles. It's the sort of game you play on a Sunday afternoon, still in your pyjamas, with one hand because you've got a Cornetto in the other. And we're totally okay with that.

Sep 9, 2022The core mechanics are almost identical to TPH. The humour is retained but the frustrating targets also resurface.
