I 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.

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.

I 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.

Wow. That was difficult to watch. Looked like a complete train wreck of a game.
