Description: In a world where robots have replaced all human jobs, step into the “Job Simulator” to learn what it was like ‘to do the job’. Players can relive the glory days of work by simulating the ins and outs of being a gourmet chef, an office worker, a convenience store clerk, and more. A tongue-in-cheek virtual reality experience for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift + Touch. In a world where robots have replaced all human jobs, step into the “Job Simulator” to learn what it was like ‘to job’.

Review: Job Simulator is one of the first games that was made exclusively for VR and because of this, it feels amazingly realistic despite its cartoon-style graphics. I would have liked to have seen more jobs to do, but what there is can at least be played over and over for better scores. The game is nothing short of ridiculously fun and oddly satisfying, but it also lacks a little bit of replay value unless you are a score chaser like myself. So is it worth the money? I still say yes because of how much fun it is to play. It might not sound much like fun to do a VR job after you get home from your real-world job, but it really is.
