⏱ Time Played: 5 hours 🎮 Gameplay: ★★★★☆ - ★★★★★ Brilliant game for relaxing and unwinding, you start on your own so there is a lot of running backwards and forwards from the store to the pumps but it doesn't take long to start gaining money and hiring employees 📖 Story: ★★★☆☆ - ★★★★★ To be honest, there isn't one and I find that quite nice. You earn money, unlock new things and progress. 🎨 Graphics: ★★★★☆ - ★★★★★ Graphics are brilliant but animations from the employees, not so good 🔊 Sound: ★★★★★ - ★★★★★ Card reader beeps, pumps click, water runs and you get to choose from a good selection of music to listen to. ⚙️ Performance: - Stable Runs like a dream. 💰 Value: - Full Price ✅ Pros: + Relaxed and Calm Gameplay + Events that bring a little challenge + Little easter eggs to find ❌ Cons: - Animations of the employees are a bit dim - No way to speed or slow down time - Not much to do once you start growing quickly 🏁 Final Verdict: It is a good simulation to pass the time or if you are an achievement hunter, I enjoy playing it when I have some down time as it does not burn your brain attempting to figure everything out. Rating: 8/10 Would I Recommend? Yes
I went into this expecting a relaxing simulator and instead spent most of my time running around in panic trying to stop the entire rest stop from collapsing. What really surprised me is how quickly the game escalates. At first it feels simple, but once customers start piling in and more systems unlock, the workload becomes complete chaos in the best way possible. Fueling customers, stocking shelves, cleaning, fixing problems, managing upgrades, and trying to keep everyone happy all at once creates some genuinely stressful and funny moments. The progression feels rewarding, and the game constantly gives you something to manage without becoming boring. It also creates a lot of natural “everything is going wrong” moments that make it really entertaining. If you enjoy simulator/management games with escalating chaos and nonstop multitasking, this is definitely worth checking out.
Hi, I'm Steeve and this is my review: This game is exactly what Simulator games should be! Don't get me wrong, I love all the simulator games I own but, this is a simulator masterpiece (and I am NOT just blowing this out of proportion!). It is hard enough that you have to lock in but simple enough that you can relax playing it. This game got me going with the "one more day syndrome". I was playing for about 3 extra days before I remembered I was supposed to be off and headed for bed. Fantastic game!!! The only critique I have is this: I unfortunately suffer with misophonia ("a disorder where specific sounds trigger strong emotional or physiological responses that others might perceive as unreasonable" - thank you google) anyway, I wish there was a way to turn off the whistling the character makes. Otherwise, I have no other issues! Keep at it, I can't wait for the updates!!!
Fun but definitely needs to ditch the AI assets and needs some serious optimization It doesnt matter what i have my graphics settings at the game seems to consistently use like 80% GPU on 3D rendering Would also be nice to be able to adjust the time the lights turn on at current its nearly pitch black before they turn on, as well as some more staff options like staff to clean up trash/oil and whatnot and staff to stock shelves. The employee hiring prices are also stupidly high and need to be adjusted ... i shouldnt cost nearly 2 whole days of profit just to hire a 1 star employee for the gas station/market that price makes them prohibitively expensive Its also extremely hard to see oil stains on the ground if its raining so that could use some attention as well
