Did I legit just beat the game?

[Dougla82airborne]

After 32 in game days, and 14.3 real world hours did i really just beat the game??? Is there nothing after making the final call to pay $5,000 to your uncle?

Did you manage to run a 24/7 3 filling, full convenience store, 6 employees and a full garage? I don't think you did, otherwise you won't be asking silly questions.

and what is this all for? never to enter the game again? if you knew what beat the game meant you wouldn't ask stupid questions

Well you're unpleasant. This is pretty much an open ended game, there's nothing to "beat" the story is pretty much a long-term tutorial and means to encourage you to expand to late game

yes, this game is a kinda scam

Good game, lots of fun for a few hours. But in all honesty it's another in a long and growing list of published yet unfinished games.
There's a lot to tease you into believing there's more content. The whole area around the RC car, the fallen-over building (car wash?), etc. Yeah maybe there'll be bits and pieces added after release but in that case it shoulda been labeled early access, a double-edged sword if there ever was one.
Still, quite well done if a bit buggy...

[Dougla82airborne]

I'm definitely not the only one that expects more content. We should be moving on to different gas stations. Or allowed to have more employees. How is level 5 the max? And why was i able to max everything out in well less than 24 hours of gameplay? This game is a demo at best right now. Which is so sad because I had so much fun for 14 hours

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this hurts my brain, people playing this like it's a story-driven game where once you beat it you hop off and never play it again. Someone said it already, view the "story" as a long tutorial, you should enjoy the process of running a gas station. Hence the title "Simulator"

Well, I rather disagree. Because after the quests there is literally nothing else to do. The only thing I did was fully upgrade the workshop and buying all the cosmetics but thats it. There is no point in further playing it if you have everything maxed out, because there just isn't anything else to achieve anymore, unless you still have fun with only managing your business.

But I do not want to bash on the game, for what it is and for the price, its perfect, I had lots of fun. It's a very good game. But yea, after you complete the quests, the games pretty much over.

[G Willikers]

It's a $20 game. 14.5 hours (which is pretty fast for this) isn't really an unreasonable amount of enjoyment for that price, it's over half a day of play time. It's extremely far from a "scam".

I agree with prior posters that it'd be nice to see a newgame+ mode that allows you to carry over your successes in some way (as well as the carwash and various gameplay improvements), but beyond that it's a pretty good amount of enjoyment for the price.

I mean, yeah you should have fun only managing your business. How it works: You play, beat the elongated tutorial and by then your gas station should be pretty set up, then you'll have like another 15 in-game days worth of playing to buy all the cosmetics like the asphalt road, etc etc. Yes, once you have everything from there the game will start to become repetitive. I switch it up, I man a station while I have 2 employees covering the other 2. I have a morning and night crew, I watch the stock price of the items to maximize profit, and I have fun with this despite being fully upgraded. This is how simulators should be played, not just blast through. Take your time and enjoy the *process*.

[Dougla82airborne]

I would love to have fun managing the business. But the aspects of running said business are lacking. Where are the statistics showing profit over time, expenses, most used products, employee payouts, etc.? Employees should be stocking the shelves and you should be able to fine tune their work schedules for autonomous shift work. Maxing everything out so fast is disheartening. 5 employees aren't enough. The game just becomes you micromanaging everything. Face it folks, we payed for yet another beta painted as a finished product.
