I still remember the days when I was hiding under the covers and playing the "Business Simulator" series on my GBA. At that time, the screen was pitifully small, and the pixel grains were so thick that they could be used as sandpaper, but I still found driving buses and building lines very interesting. Later, I switched to PSP and finally got a bit of a 3D feeling, but it was just a blurry box car moving on a dusty map. Unexpectedly, as soon as I started using "Super Driving" on my mobile phone, my bus empire dream was directly remade in high definition! 🎮
This game really shines in the eyes of an old nostalgic guy like me. At the beginning, you are asked to start with a small route, save money to buy a car, hire a driver, and slowly expand the urban road network. The most surprising thing is that it actually has indoor and outdoor scenes. The bus terminal, waiting hall, and street shops are all 3D modeled. When entering the station, you can also see the weather changes outside the car window. When it rains, the wiper moves and the sound effect "swish" instantly brings me back to the afternoon when I was a child squatting in front of the PSP waiting for the bus simulator. 🌧️
To be honest, compared with the "draw a straight line and use it as a route" gameplay on the GBA back then, the operation feel of "Super Driving" is much more delicate. You can dispatch vehicles by tapping the screen, manually adjust fares, arrange shifts, and even temporarily change lanes when encountering traffic jams. As I played, I muttered: If the PSP had this quality of graphics back then, I might have been able to skip class for a week. But having said that, the button feel of the old handheld console cannot be reproduced by new mobile phone emulators. However, the touch screen of "Super Drive" is very smooth and there is no awkward feeling. I must praise this. 👏
What touches me the most is the slowly growing sense of accomplishment. From a small rickshaw to a double-decker bus, from a village line to a cross-city express line, when the dense route map on the screen unfolded, I almost thought I was running the bus company for my entire youth. When I played "Traffic Tycoon" on the NDS, I dreamed of being able to freely adjust the platform and watch passengers get on the bus - now it's all come true in "Super Driving". And it's completely free, without those annoying pop-ups for cash, and it's purely based on operational level, which is so conscientious. 💖
If you are like me, you always have a handheld console with a bright backlight in your memory, or you simply like the immersion of business simulation, you can really try this "Super Driving". There is no need to look forward to the next generation of consoles in the new era. You can regain the simple happiness of the past when "a bus brought a city to life" on your mobile phone. My bus empire is expanding, what about yours? Let's insert the street signs of youth into further platforms! 🛣️
