    In Gas Station Simulator, you get to refurbish your own dessert pit stop in the middle of no where. While there may be minor bugs, weird physics, and repetitive game play, Gas Station Simulator still delights with all of its charms. With its variety of tasks, fast pacing, challenging progression, and overall enjoyable atmosphere, Gas Station Simulator is a must-play for lovers of this style of game.

    Gas Station Simulator is a tough game to score. It’s deeply flawed, but it’s oh-so fun. The jankiness is part-and-parcel with the experience, but some progress-halting bugs will really sour you. Still, the act of manning your own gas station, getting stuck into the nitty-gritty and seeing your business flourish over time is incredibly satisfying. And those issues just aren’t enough to drag us away from the joy of serving our customers.

    There are some bugs, mostly issues with AI but I have not yet encountered anything game breaking, I think the buildings may weather slightly too fast but this appears to be cosmetic only and has no effect on your businesses, the in game PC can be a little hard to navigate without highlighting what you are currently looking at on some tabs without a button prompt so I accidentally took out a loan in game. It would be nice to see my employees restock shelves for me ( I don't know if they actually do or not as I keep them stocked myself ) it would also be nice to see them maintain the paint on the buildings.

    I think this game has great potential for future support especially on the console market where there is a lack of this genre of game, I hope it is continually supported with additional content and quality of life updates, if not its still a pretty fun experience suited towards anyone who likes managerial games.

    A nice and relaxing game. Good for people who work a lot. Much more variation than expected.

    A super relaxing and cheap game with some flaws that, once you understand, won't give you much trouble during your gameplay. NothingA super relaxing and cheap game with some flaws that, once you understand, won't give you much trouble during your gameplay. Nothing spectacular, but this game gets the job done with cool sim mechanics and many things to see and do around the station. Expand

    This game feels like its running at half a tank literally.

    My first game failed because I ordered a refill of gas, shutdown the station because I thought why not. Out of gas and expecting a delivery. Driver showed up, literally jumps out of truck, walks forward, turns around gets back into the delivery truck and left. I dont know if that is a bug or feature but it left me with no money to buy any gas and so was a failure. Frankly, being open for deliveries is not a "real" world requirement and should be noted in the game if it is a requirement.

    Started over, got to the place shelves and now more annoyances. Why does it feel like a chore to do the simplest things while it is really easy to do the complex things.

    Things I would prefer that were there before release:
    Snap tool option for shelves and other items in store.
    Dont allow the user to leave the store if those items can only be in the store.
    Maybe freeze time option as well for placing stuff that requires precision.
    Better cleaning tools or at least a way to highlight where things are dirty and what can or cant be clean.
    Other options than desert. Hey I get it, where most older gas stations exist but would like a greener area or option.

    What it does well:
    Puts you in the owner sim of a gas station.
    Running around felt fun to get things done.
