Simulator Games Discussion

Here's a weird one that is both simulator and will attract a lot of fans.

Thomas & Friends: Wonders of Sodor is a brand new journey from the team steaming behind Train Sim World. The Island of Sodor has been faithfully mapped out for several of Rev. W. Awdry's famous engines to roam around. Whether in Story Mode, Timetable Mode, Explore Mode or taking on a Shunting Challenge, you can finally experience life on the North Western Railway!

I guess this is a simulator style game.

STEAM TO ELECTRIC!

I do like that blocky look.  They've done a handful of games in that style now.  Just not sure I'd play a game with concept trains.  Seems like it could have been a DLC to a previous game.

For a studio that initially set a modest goal of 100,000 sales, the game had sold over one million copies! In addition to the impressive sales figures, the developers also shared other statistics: the average daily player count over the past week was 80,000.  The Paralives studio has just 15 people! The game has not only won player recognition (90% positive reviews on Steam) but also a financial cushion that will allow the developers to continue working without needing to release paid DLC.
