My Thoughts
Yes, this is one of those games that might feel like a full-time job where you don’t get paid! However, the realism and the ability to handle both destruction and construction pulled me right in. The support for steering wheels actually made me chuckle. I mean, really, how do you plaster walls with a steering wheel? That is neither here nor there, of course. The Construction Simulator series has always been known for its massive scale, and Construction Simulator: Evolution looks like it will continue that tradition in a big way. The game looks like a blast and I am excited to play it. How about you?
