Review: With hopes growing up to become a bus driver anyway I had big dreams and high hopes going into ‘Bus Driver Simulator’ and while I wasn’t disappointed I wasn’t exactly blown away either. Unlike many other VR gamers, I like playing games with a gamepad so that didn’t bother me, but it was the lack of scale and overall quality that did surprise me. It just doesn’t have the scale I was expecting from such a big game. Don’t get me wrong, there is a few hours of gameplay here at least, but the rest of the content is locked behind paid DLC. I just felt having already paid £19.99 that I would have got a lot more, so do consider waiting for a sale if this looks like your cup of tea. Overall it’s an OK game and fun to play, but with its simplistic graphics and lack of content value for money is not something this game offers.
