    PC Building simulator is a nice game that lets you build PCs. This game has a nice attention to detail and gives you good amount of options when it comes to building your dream system but you can't help but notice that there could me more options when it comes to picking parts for PC.

    The game is fun and engaging enough to play a couple hours. I came to it knowing what I was doing, so aside from the awful experience of plugging the case cables to the board, it's a pretty good intro to someone who is thinking on building their first pc. The game takes it's time to give you new hardware, so you'll have to start using old processors and Fiji and pascal cards.

    The downside are the screws mechanics and the broken DIY water cooling system.    … Expand

    В игре много разных деталей PC из которых можно собрать PC своей мечты. Режим карьеры быстро надоедает а заказы с 3DMark это просто ужас. Есть разные улучшения к примеру чтобы быстрее откручивать болты, автоматически подключать кабели. В начале игры у вас будет всего 1 стол потом вы можете открыть ещё 2 и шкаф для хранения ваших PC.В игре много разных деталей PC из которых можно собрать PC своей мечты.

    Comme je joue sur PC depuis très peu de temps, je m'étais dit que PC Building était parfait pour en découvrir plus sur l'utilité des composants d'un ordinateur. Cependant, certaines tâches manquent un peu d'accompagnement pour aider le joueur. Le gameplay devient par ailleurs assez rapidement redondant, les jours s'enchaînent dans notre boutique informatique et les tâches se répètent encore et toujours. Au final, c'est une expérience de jeu plutôt sympa avec un thème accrocheur, même si la recette ne prend pas totalement.

    Just finish my second PC build ever and it makes me want to build more PC. This game answers my itch for that. It also teaches me in a way about custom water cooling, overclocking, although some might question the realism of these topics in-game, at least it gets my feet wet.

    The Good: - Could teach something to the beginner builder, no experience. - For the already know-how, it is    Just finish my second PC build ever and it makes me want to build more PC.

    The Good:
    - Could teach something to the beginner builder, no experience.
    - For the already know-how, it is fun to play around with the build.
    - Real brand and part. Many of them too.

    The Okay:
    - I wish there are more customization on your office, you stuck with the same thing the whole time, at least let us change the wallpaper, expanding rooms. The only way is to get DLCs that are only hardware brand studio.
    - A little client story on career mode, some are fun and some are meh.

    The Bad:
    - Should be a way to list things for each build, not just all in one inventory. Maybe workbench inventory, parts list that attaches to each build.
    - Every software install requires a restart...really?
    - In-game OS startup/shutdown sound (at least please give us choices to pick the one that doesn't drive you crazy).    … Expand

    If you're interested in learning about PC hardware and how you could possibly build your own PC, this game might be up your alley.

Career mode has you play as a technician repairing computers sent in whilst limited by money and bills whereas free-build allows you to build to your heart's desire.

    Sometimes there's some weird rendering with the graphics, but overall if you want a game that you could pass some hours on or learn about potentially building your own PC - this is a decent game for that.    … Expand

    PC Building Simulator is (obviously) a game where you build PC; or maybe learn how to build one.

    In career mode, you play as a computer repair technician in a workshop. It's fun and challenging at times, and can hook you up for hours.

    Free-build mode is a mode that gives you freedom to build a PC, like building something that you can't afford.

    The game itself is choppy, I can't get decent FPS rendering just a room with a few computers, and lowering the graphic doesn't seem to give a noticeable performance boost.

    This game needs to mostly improve its performance, and adding more component used to build the PC, and there is a few bug and visual glitches it needs to fix.    … Expand

    PC Building Simulator is a good idle experience. Here you can learn how a PC is made, but forget to learn how to build one seriously thanks to the game.

    PC Building Simulator is one of the better entries in the genre, with nice touches of authenticity and attention to detail. It's too limited and simplistic to replicate the experience of putting a rig together yourself, but it does a good enough job to get you started in the right direction.
