The residents are for some reason very suicidal and they keep running in front of the buses, they also think about tram seats quite often while on a bus

I build my drug dealing operation under City Bus Logistic Company, Mayor cannot believe what i have done?! I was expectin simple simulator game with no logic behind where you only drive etc, oh how i was wrong lol. Firstly driving feels good i was using quite a bit old steering wheel to test the game but it worked just fine. It felt good to drive around for 2 hours following the game doing my job and get payed only to expand the number of bus i have to contunie provide community work. I will say if you like driving games where you want progression and make your virtual company to get better day by day this is a good game for you. If you are going to play this game with M/K its fine as well it is fun either way but if you wanna go for steering wheel if would suggest good quality one since this game actually has quite a bit control you have to consider because you are controlling lights, doors, speed limiter etc. Couple functions that is usefull within game and old school wheel like mines dont have enough control options to control em all. I will play in the future if i think about getting new & proper wheel set. I will suggest this game for people who likes games such as ETS or ATS. Also consider waiting for discount for better pricing... Have fun lads :)

Bus Simulator 21 Overview *Bus Simulator 21* puts you behind the wheel of public transportation in bustling cities. It’s all about schedules, routes, and traffic laws, with a mix of simulation and casual gameplay. Think of it as “the daily grind: the game,” but with surprisingly zen vibes. Gameplay The game offers a mix of realistic driving mechanics and management elements, with a robust fleet of buses to drive. While the traffic AI often feels like it learned to drive from a YouTube tutorial, the core gameplay of planning routes, picking up passengers, and keeping to a schedule is oddly engaging. Graphics The visuals are functional rather than groundbreaking. Cities and environments have a clean but slightly generic look. Day-night cycles and weather effects add some charm, though the occasional graphical glitch might remind you why you’re late. Sound From the hum of engines to the chatter of passengers, the sound design is immersive. However, some of the passenger voice lines can get repetitive—if one more person comments on the weather, you might just drive off-route. Community Fans of the series are passionate, sharing mods and tips for the best routes. That said, the online multiplayer can be hit or miss depending on how cooperative your fellow drivers are. Replayability With plenty of customization options for buses and routes, plus the choice of freeplay or campaign modes, there’s a lot to keep you coming back. Adding mods extends the game’s life even further. Funny Notes - “When your passengers are more concerned about your punctuality than your driving into a lamppost.” - “Watching NPCs jaywalk right in front of a 20-ton bus makes you question their survival instincts.” - “You’ll never complain about your morning commute again—unless you’re in multiplayer.” Rating ⭐⭐⭐½ (3.5/5) *"A fun, relaxing experience, hampered by some quirks. If you can look past the occasional traffic shenanigans, this bus ride is worth the fare."*
