Simulation fans who enjoy flexible management or deep micromanagement of staff and inventory will find rewarding challenges here.
Gas Station Simulator
Gas Station Simulator is all about renovating, expanding and running a gas station along a highway in the middle of a desert. Freedom of choice and multiple approaches to run your business and deal with pressure are key ingredients in this game.
Buy an abandoned gas station in the middle of nowhere and restore it to its former glory. Get rid of debris and broken furniture, fix up the walls, paint and decorate the place to your liking. Just don’t spend all your cash on the looks right away, you bought a gas station after all. Repair the equipment, buy what can’t be repaired and start serving your customers to earn money for further renovations and improvements.
You don’t need to stay small. You can expand your gas station to be able to serve more customers. Also, a gas station is not just about selling fuel. You can expand the array of services that you offer to your customers and thus attract more and more varied customers. You have various expansion options at your disposal, from smaller ones like providing toilets, a simple shop to complement your income up to big ones like an entire workshop to perform car repairs. There are quite a few choices and most of the expansions can themselves be further expanded upon as well. There is so much you can do here.
Restoring your gas station is one thing, giving it a personal touch another. The game offers a wide array of options to customize what you have already built and lots of decorations to further enhance the uniqueness of the place. Some decorations can be bought, others have to be acquired during gameplay. It is not just about making the gas station look nice. The more impressive your gas station looks, the more customers will be attracted.
Serving your customers is key in running your gas station with success. They all expect to have their cars filled up, their shopping done right away and aren’t that patient even when it comes to repairs of their vehicles. You are going to be dealing with some serious time pressure at peak hours and have to schedule various tasks for when it’s less hectic. Proper time management and choosing the right priorities becomes very important when it comes to keeping your customers happy.
While you can try, in most cases running a gas station that has been expanded and upgraded offering lots of different services to your customers might be just too much to handle for you alone. This is where employees come into play. You can hire even multiple employees to help you with the various tasks at the gas station. Employees have their own skills and some are better at some tasks than others. Employees also level based on the tasks they perform and become better at them with time.
You can’t sell what you don’t have. Keeping track of your stock is important and ordering at the right time for the right price helps to keep profits up. To even better use low price opportunities, you can build a warehouse and expand it to allow for larger storage. Keeping a close eye on your stock is crucial as deliveries take time and you really don’t want to run out of goods to sell, not to mention fuel.
We created the game so that if you like, you can dive deep into management features and micromanage the living you know what out of it. However, if micromanaging isn’t your cup of tea, we don’t force you to deal with the depths of it. That being said, micromanaging some aspects like supplies or employees can be very rewarding both in terms of finances and fun.
Gas Station Simulator - Airstrip DLC
Cars are nice, but maybe airplanes are nicer? Build a small airstrip at your gas station and
help Joe with his air routes in this DLC.
It is more story-driven than what we did in the past and it allows you to build a small airstrip close to your gas station.
Meet Joe
Joe is an old pilot flying an old single engine plane. He is a bit strange and one day
approaches you to help him with his endeavours. For that he needs a place to land in the
middle of nowhere to make a stop halfway to his destination. In return he is willing to cut you
in on his deals.
The Airstrip
You have plenty of space and as it turned out, there used to be an old military landing strip
during WWII close to your gas station. Should be that hard to make it work again, right? You
might even go a step further, order some aviation fuel and some parts for planes. A
windsock wouldn’t probably hurt and some lights might turn out to be useful, since you will
on occasion also need to help him land. Let’s see how things develop and what Joe is up
to...
The Plane
Joe’s plane is like its pilot: old. It’s also simple. The most advanced technology on this thing
is the LED reading light Joe uses to find his way on the chart. How hard can it be to fix some
simple things on a small plane? And it’s not like you are doing it for free.
The Gameplay
The Airstrip DLC brings new game mechanics and content to Gas Station Simulator based
on events. Unlike the content we introduced in the past, it does not require your constant
attention, it is more something that happens every now and then.
