For those gamers who love a bit of busywork, the Summer Sims 2 Humble Bundle has some popular simulation games available. Below you'll get the Steam Deck rating for each from Valve, plus any ProtonDB rating or if they have Native Linux versions.

See the full Humble Bundle for the details.
Also don't miss these bundles still going:
- Humble Choice for July has Ghostrunner 2 and A Plague Tale: Requiem
- Super Meat Boy and Worms star in Humble's Flashback Classics Bundle
- Do a little speed-running with the Summer Games Done Quick Humble Bundle
- The Many World of Muv-Luv Bundle with tons of visual novels
It's so good that it was probably never sold anywhere else in the world. It's like wine or cheese, you know, we keep the best of the best to ourselves. That's why it's not in this bundle, obviously.
This could be the "Plan 9 from Outerspace" of video games.

And the best part : because of the commercial success and critical acclaim, they made a whole series of these games, each about a different kind of job.

Quoting: tfkI was just scrolling through the Steam store and saw Autopsy Simulator coming by. Maybe they are going a bit overboard with this Simulator genre...
I’m waiting for Simulator Simulator before I dive in to the genre.
Quoting: junibegoodI guess this is a good time to make you all discover the jewel of French video game development : Travaux Public Simulator 2011 (or Chantiers Voirie Simulator, the game isn't even consistent about its own name ). It would translate in English as "Road Building Simulateur", I suppose.

Wow. That was difficult to watch. Looked like a complete train wreck of a game.
See more from me
