DESCRIPTION

Acme::Hospital::Bed is a simple command line Q/A game.

The basic gameplay is the following:

A patient is generated with a random 'illness' level of 1 to 10 and a phrase that is associated to this level.

The player then decides y(yes) or n(no) to check the patient into a hospital bed.

If they guess correctly then the patient will be allocated a bed for the specified time, else the player will lose a life.

A correct guess is when the player decides yes and the patients level is greater than 5.

An incorrect guess is when the player decides yes and the patients level is lower than 5 or when the player decides no and the patients level is greater than 5.

During each turn, all rooms are deducted 1 nights stay. If a room reaches 0 then the patient is checked out and that room becomes available again.
