New to the Simulator series, is Bus Simulator 18 available on Steam. Yes, that’s right, you’re a bus driver that has to ferry passengers to their destination while obeying the rules of the road and keeping them safe and happy for the duration of their journey. While it’s a series that doesn’t exude the best graphics, gameplay or even a narrative, it persists with a cult status among gamers looking for the next instalment.
Despite the lack of high quality involved as a major studio would no doubt invest into their title, these games can be quite fun. I should know, I have Farming Simulator 15 for console and it’s actually a refreshing change. Laid back and relaxing in a game was never more apparent, and if you go in with an open mind, you may well enjoy the game for what it is.
Bus Simulator even goes as far to acquire rights to feature brands like Mercedes-Benz, Stra and IVECO as your ride of choice. Not only that, but there is also a solo and multiplayer mode to choose from, so if you’re lucky enough to have a friend with the game, you can have twice the fun with your bus driving.
Bus Simulator supports 12 different languages; English, French, German, Spanish, Czech, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese-Brazil, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Turkish and finally Korean.
