the best simulator out there in recent years. From the quirky-ness of the game to the outright "what the F***" moments, it always gets better.
A great game with many things to do; worth the gameplay.
‣ 7/10 – Has more players than PayDay 3.
‣ Thoughts: This game is like a coin with two sides, one being bad and the other good. While playing you are constantly flipping the coin and based on what lands you either have a great, nice experience or just a complete mess. Some bugs and glitches are so common that instead of being patched the developer included a tool that resets the problem, and you are left praying it doesn’t repeat itself.
Throughout my playthrough I have encountered many glitches of various kinds, some were connected to whacky physics others simply broke the game, some removed entire layers of paint applied to the station etc. But the worst one that almost made me quit was a progression glitch that simply locked me out of doing anything new and left me stuck at a rough 75% game completion status. It happened because of a new patch introducing an entire new DLC, thankfully it was fixed quick, and I could continue doing main story missions, sadly that only happened after I’ve replayed the entire run which was a waste of 9 hours. So, the game almost ended there with a horribly negative review, but things changed, and I pushed through. Without that, I could name plenty more bugs, but none of them interrupted my playthrough anymore so it is up to the player on how tolerable the game can be with so much polish missing.
Asides the point the game is obviously a mess it is actually one of the best simulator titles I’ve tried. It has a great gameplay loop, and it keeps expanding the way you’d hope, giving you more tools to use and categories to manage. Surprisingly it all functions quite well and rarely are there problems when it comes to making money. Even though I felt addicted to this game for a week I doubt it has enough meat on its bone for player to keep nibbling after you get the last upgrade with that said there is now an entirely new place the game takes part in, so if anyone wants to keep going, they surely can.
Overall, Gas Station Simulator is definitely one of the stronger titles in its genre and has plenty of interesting gameplay loops that will keep players engaged. It is only limited by its looks and overall bugs and glitches.

I originally complained about a game breaking bug where cars would get permanently stuck. I then found out you can reset all of the cars, which caused me to return to the game and actually have fun! I then discovered there is an ACTUAL game breaking issue: this game has a memory leak, meaning if you don't reset your gas station daily, your memory will fill beyond Unreal engine's limits and the game will crash and possibly be un-launchable. This game has been abandoned by its developer, so if you want this game, don't buy it.
