It´s a mediocre game. It´s TML and Auerosoft, so just another one of their random slop projects. But it is fun. The base game with Germany offers unique destinations, varied locations and a very big road network. All map DLCs for the game lack one of these qualities. The base game is the only one relatively worth the price they are asking for. The bus DLCs are nice and allow you to choose whatever you want, but the price for those is not worth it. The amount of passengers always hovers around 20 in the bus at once. Despite the game offering long buses capable of holding 70 or more people, you will never go above 30, and very rarely hit 25 passengers. The physics are good, but the wipers could use a bit of a change, because no matter the speed setting, they always run at the same interval. Interacting with the bus and passengers is okay and the animations for the bus are rather good. Game mechanics and vehicle control is also good. Graphically the game looks nice, but you can tell it´s the usual Unreal Engine game. Unfortunately there is ghosting, but you won´t really notice it if you don´t play in exterior view. Map expansions: The free ones are nice, and offer a relatively good change of pace, usually with narrower roads and unique destinations. They are only located in the base game though. France is underwhelming. Massive country, with a massive road network, properly represented in the game, but lacks unique and smaller destinations. Austria/Switzerland is mediocre. The scenery is nice, but the entire southern half of both countries (except for Austria´s Graz) is missing. Czechia is mediocre. The destinations are spread across the country, but the road network only offers A to B direct travel. There are no side roads for alternative pathing. It also misses smaller destinations, and has big empty spots outside of the 5 towns. Denmark is just like Czechia, with the addition of having an empty spot in the north-west of the country. Netherland and Belgium also fall into the same sphere as Czechia, with some smaller roads available.

I'm not gonna sugarcoat, but I'm gonna be fair. The graphics sometimes are a little rough and the frame rate is really unstable. But I play this game every now and then because I think it's a really chill experience and it's one of the few coach-deriving experiences on Steam that actually brings a well-enough made gameplay. So that said, even though the game has problems, I fully believe that if someone is looking for this kind of experience in a game, it's worth a shot, even if sometimes I feel like it's a bit overpriced. But at the same time, I believe that you can find, not often, but some sales where you have good prices.

This is an excellent simulation game and it performs well on my PC, but I did have to play around with settings in-game and in the NVIDIA control panel to get the balance of clarity, fps, and quality with which I was happy. I was hesitant to purchase it at first because I read forum posts dismissing it harshly, typically on the basis of performance. Performance has been excellent for me. Do note that I have only played the game since the UE5 update, I have a more recent model gaming PC, and I am good with figuring out optimal settings. The graphics are higher quality, more like Train Sim World 4/5 than Euro Truck Sim/ATS. Fernbus performs significantly better for me than Train Sim World 5. Train sims with a 1:1 route scale are known for being highly demanding on PCs, so for Fernbus Simulator to use a 1:5 scale and high end graphics means it won't run well on many folks' hardware. I love all the aforementioned games (I've played ETS the most), but I don't think it's reasonable to expect the same performance between them without having quite strong hardware and being willing to configure your PC, GPU, and in-game settings. The gameplay is delightfully self-directed and sandbox; it lends itself well to creative solo roleplaying and setting one's own goals. It is well worth your time if you enjoy driving simulation games in European settings and have a powerful enough PC.

It's a brilliant game; so much to do! There are so many different DLCs which means you can drive so many different coaches. The DLCs also layer in to Tourist Bus Simulator so you effectively get 2 DLCs for the price of 1. I originally only had TBS and I bought 1 DLC. I bought Fernbus a few days ago while it was on sale and I enjoyed it so much I bought an additional 3 DLC; definitely worth it, especially since everything was still on sale. However, there 1 bus that has 3 slightly different variants and they are all sold differently at the normal price for a DLC! Not acceptable... anyway, 8/10 Gets laggy in some towns and also has a few bugs!

Amazing driving game - if you love any kind of driving, have a love for buses/coaches or just want to see Europe behind the screen, this is the game for you. I really love it and appreciate how detailed everything about this game is. It's constantly getting updated, you can drive simply with only a keyboard and mouse, and you can do whatever you want in the game! It is a must for automobile sim lovers.
