When calibrating at the start of the game, you’re able to adjust the level/distance of the floor from your headset so that you can appear as the right height when playing the game. The only flaws I could find with the game are more than likely effects of its porting from the PC-based VR hardware. As cartoonish as the world might be with its simple visual style, you truly feel engaged with it after only a few moments. The simple act of throwing an object with one hand and catching it with the other is seamless, and far more satisfying than you might think. With the advantage of starting on the Vive, Job Sim has a leg up on VR interaction and it shows. The best part of Job Simulator is how accurately your movements are tracked.

After finding a ‘Flappy Bot’ game disc in the office simulation, I legitimately spent ten minutes playing a clone of a terrible mobile game on a fake PC by hitting fake keys, WITHIN a simulated world, while sitting in my living room.
And honestly, thats where most of the fun lies – throwing objects at the bots, fooling around with the tools and gimmicks available, and solving the tasks presented in as obtuse a way as you can think of will keep you going for a LONG time. Your next task is queued up with an interactible object rather than automatically beginning, to give you time to mess around as much as you like. While each of these simulations does have a ‘critical mission path’, they’re specifically designed to be optional. In fact, vertical movement is encouraged – so be prepared to shift up and down as you play. It’s a smart move that eliminates the risk of crashing into your real-world surroundings, without having to be anchored to a chair. Each simulation puts you in intentionally close quarters, too – a cubicle in the office, or a standing-room-only kitchen with modular counters to bring you any of the ingredients or appliances you might need. Each simulation anchors you in one place, with limited range of movement to rotate and shift back and forth. Utilising twin Move controllers, you’re able to pick up and manipulate objects in a way that quickly feels very natural. You’re presented with four simulations to choose from: Chef, Office Worker, Mechanic and Store Clerk.Įssentially, each of the available simulations finds you taking on various tasks in this job, with the opportunity to mess around with the environment to your heart’s content. The ‘bots have painstakingly created simulations of ‘JOB’ so you can experience what it was like to work for a living back in the day. Set in the far future, Job Simulator sees you taking the role of a human in a world of floating robot TVs. Being one of those games that sat on my Steam wishlist (just in case I ever got a capable computer), it was a relief to have it make to the controlled environment of the PS4. In a world where robots have replaced all human jobs, step into the "Job Simulator" to learn what it was like 'to job'.Job Simulator was a game I was really hoping to see make it to PlayStation VR. A tongue-in-cheek virtual reality experience for HTC Vive.
