Developed by SCS Software, the American Truck Simulator is a game that lets you drive a semi-truck in a 3D environment. The game was first announced in September 2013 and unveiled during the 2015 E3 gaming conference. It was released on 2 February 2016 for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS. However, there were some complaints about the game. The developer said that the game "requires a large amount of system resources."

The game has the same game mechanics as Euro Truck Simulator 2, but with more realistic scenery. It lets you experience life on American roads, and it also offers plenty of ways to practice business skills. You can hire people to work for you can even pay off your loans and buy items. The latest version includes a route adviser that serves as your personal assistant to help you through your journey. It also has a built-in music player for your convenience. To play it, you will need a PC with a 2.4GHz Intel Dual Core processor.

In addition to realism, the game simulates driving a truck in an urban environment. The game allows you to drive in a garage, though it can be quite small for the size of your vehicle. You must be careful to follow the speed limit and watch the signs for danger. You can also hitch trailers to your vehicle, visit gas stations, and engage in conversations with police officers. You will also need to pay attention to the color of the road and traffic signs.
