I choose to believe the only people who play Euro Train simulator are German train conductors who want to pretend to operate a train while eating pretzels and drinking a responsible amount of beer.
Can confirm, I’m an it worker and love the farming/trucking/construction/other sims
I work with kids who are seeking vocational education, and I can tell you that it is definitely not just office workers.
A favorite is euro truck sim 2. Weirdest case I’ve met though is farming sim. I’ve talked with 16 year olds who’d play that game for hours daily. Even got a friend of the family who’ll come home from driving a tractor for 14 hours straight, and then play farming sim to wind down.
I know the farming simulator type of people. I think those people simply have a high professional interest in farming economy, management and agricultural technology.
Even more impressing than those who play every FS 20xx for hours I find those who mod for the games. Year after year they photograph, model, program and share their equipment, which is sometimes decades old.
Playing ETS2 is just something you do while listening to the radio, the long highway stretches of not having to reverse a trailer into the eye of a needle are superbly relaxing.
some more for you
Autobahn police simulator does sound like fun actually.
It is, but probably not in the way you think. Because this game is unbelievably trashy and cringe. If you like that, you’ll have fun!
“das ist ja gestern nicht so gut gelaufen…”
COBRA 11: THE GAME
I’ve put a ridiculous number of hours into Ship Graveyard Simulator 2. Why am I, a white collar guy from a developed country, spending hours pretending to be a Sri Lankan with one of the worst jobs in the world? It’s bizarre when you think about it.
Ugh, these games just seem like so much work, I want to relax.
Sits at computer, pulls out calculator and notepad before opening Satisfactory
That happened to me with no man’s sky lol
Who am I to judge? I’ve played several nuclear power plant sims… But come on? Gleisbau? And a sim where you’re paint stripes on roads? Go home Germany, you’re drunk.
Uhhhh… sauce on the power plant sims? Those sound interesting
I think I’ve played 3 different ones.
-
One I bought on steam in alpha, which was a generous way of describing “we’ve managed to get it to compile, now pls give money”,
-
another was something online that I can’t find anymore
-
and lastly there’s the one I’ve actually spent some time with which was the low defunct nuclearpowersimulatorDOTcom. Luckily it’s still playable on the waybackmachine https://web.archive.org/web/20200221074957/http://www.nuclearpowersimulator.com/
1/3 I’ll take it lol
Thanks!

If I remember correctly those games were all pumped out by one studio in a short time. They’re heaping piles of trash, sometimes literally unplayable and probably only had players because they gave them away with gaming magazines.
Yesterday I spent 1,5 hours to sort my 550 mods for a new Rimworld playthrough. Game didn’t launch, so I decided to try again another day and ended up playing Guild Wars 2.
You have the expertise to cause the maximum amount of chaos, then you reload and nobody is the wiser.
It’s like the simulation games in minority report
Have you tried goat simulator?
The Monitor from Philips is spot on.

I’ve found the easiest way for me to knock hours off the clock without noticing is to smoke up and play a little PowerWash Simulator.
