Commuter buses

Ever since bus simulators blew up in popularity, more and more games have been coming out for both PC and mobile in this niche sub-genre. While most of them feature the same basic concept and gameplay, they have been made based on different themes that focus on aspects like raw material hauling, logistics transportation, or public transportation services. Bus Simulator 2023 belongs to the latter.

In Bus Simulator 2023, you get to experience the life of a public transportation bus driver. Pick up and drop off passengers at various points throughout a city. Drive a diesel, electric, or even one of those double-decker types, with various customization options, including paint, decals, and other accessories. Your job will take you to multiple countries all over the world like the USA, Europe, Shanghai, and more.

There are even various in-game mechanics for hiring drivers, mapping out routes, and a traffic system for a more immersive experience. Aside from the campaign and free-ride modes, you can do online multiplayer wherein you can invite other players to perform co-op bus routes. Some things to improve on in the future would be the laggy controls and the various little graphical glitches that appear.
