You don't have to deal with the various bits of packaging (which can sometimes be a pain in the ass). How accurate is this game?įor the most part, the actual building of a PC works much as it does in the real world. I've been doing freelance IT work for consumer and residential customers for well over a decade. Unlike a first-person shooter or a dating sim, I actually have a lot of experience in what PC Building Simulator attempts to simulate. After completing a simple virus scan job, you'll move on to diagnosing broken PCs, upgrading them with new parts, and building bespoke machines for a variety of customers. A family member has left you in charge of his failing PC shop and you have the opportunity to turn things around. The real meat of the game is in the career mode. A tutorial is also available if you're a complete newbie at the minimum, it will show you which components go where.

If you're just here to tinker with parts, then PC Building Simulator has you covered with its free build mode. I was also curious if the developers managed to edge things a little closer to realism. Now that the game is out, I'm hopping back in to see what's new since the full release. I first checked out this game for Coverage Club before moving on to a preview during its time in Steam Early Access. In it, you use your personal computer to virtually build a personal computer.

PC Building Simulator is about as meta as it gets when it comes to simulator games.
