Love this game

This game is sooooo addicting! The only thing is that they should make a mode where you can drive however you want instead of all of the pickups other than that the game is great!!!

bus driver!

This game is great and last a long time. for 3.99 its a steal i recomend this! if you like it also try euro truck and scaniatruck driving.

COOL GAME!!!

I like this game a lot! I have already competed all the levels. is very fun to play. though, now i am just playing the same levels over and over. I wish there were more levels. but I still think it is fun. if you could update it that would be nice, but still an awesome game! I would recommend this game!

Entertaining with a bit of zen

At first, this game sounds incredibly lame, like "Why the heck would driving around in a bus be fun?" But it actually is really challenging, and is a great test of patience. The graphics are very detailed as well. Imagine that youre immersed in the boring happy lives of the civilians of Grand Theft Auto as a public transit employee, without some crazy psycho smashing in to everything. Its a nice break. For 4 bucks, give it a download.

Good Game!

If you love driving period, you will love this game! This easily deserves to be the top 10 paid game apps. PLEASE MAKE A SANDBOX MODE!!!! Works great on my late 2007 Macbook Pro.

New levels

This game is really awesome but i think there should be an update with new 2013 busses and new levels that would be awesome!!!

mr.

I bought this game becasue it looked like a good game, but it was a waste of money. i cant even open the game!! it says its damage and to delete and re-install, but whenever i do that it does the same thing dosnt want to open. maybe it needs a new update i dont know but i apple needs to fix this problem!!!!

Update

Fun but...

Very fun simulation but please add a in cab camera!!!!! When a in cab camera/interior view is added this will be a 5 star game.

Where is the sandbox that is mentioned in the update? there is no visible icons or in library-> application suport?

Awesome game to buy

The moment you get in the drivers seat its a fantastic experience so try it out. Thanks 11year-old Cole

LOVE...

I love this game!!! I finished all of the levels please make more!!!!!

Fun game.

This is a very fun game. It mimicks real-world driving, turn signals, red lights, etc. I do not see the sandbox function, thus I wil only give it four stars. Its a really fun game if your into simulation, maybe even to help teach your kids to drive (not completely, just more of an understanding).

Fun Game

This is a fun driving game and I would recommend it! I would give this five stars but because of a number of things I will only give it a 3. First of all its very hard to pull out of a station and see the oncoming traffic from the left as there are only two views ( as far as I can see) the outside back of the bus and through the windshield. You cant look left or right even if you look through the rearview mirrors because of the angle. Then, if you want to make a right turn its almost impossible without running over the sidewalk unless you swing wide in which case you might crash into an oncoming vehicle. Also when you stop at a red light, which is I think, twice as long as the green which you barely have time to cross, I get beeped from behind from cars. Why are they beeping me, its a red light? Now I really like the town scenery but I feel Im driving through a ghost town as if all the people disappeared into thin air. Could they put in some static figures like at the bus stops to populate the town? Its eerie driving the empty streets. I have no steering wheel at this time so Im using a Thrustmaster joy stick which is OK but hard to steer and I cant use any of the buttons on it like turn signals which I have to reach on the key board. Just little things that could be better. Still I like it and I recommend it if you like a driving game!

fun, but could be better

this game is pretty fun, but i have a few suggestions to make it even better: 1. Make a sandbox mode everyone is talking about where you could pick up anybody on the streets and bring them to their destination. 2. You should be able to updrage your bus. (i.e. turbocharger, more power, better handling and braking, etc.) 3. Make a button where you can turn on bright lights at night! its really hard to see sometimes. 4. other people honk at me when im at a red light (as mentioned in other reviews) 5. if you can be THIS successful in a bus drving game, make some more transportation games! like a taxi driver, or train driver. 6. A multiplayer function would be fun! you could chat with other bus drivers on the road via a program on the game. 7. Towns need more populating, b/c it is like a “ghost town” as mentioned in other reviews. These are just my suggestions, but the game is very great to kill some time and enjoy a rainiy day on a saturday

fun game

this game is fun, but I wish that the chraphic lights did not tern red so fast. but its A good game

Amazing game!

I have always been playing this game on an 8 year old Windows XP and thought it was amazing. Now that I see it’s on the app store for mac, I bought at first sight! Pros: -Many routes to keep you busy -Realistic buses Cons: -Red light detection is a bit sensitive* *I would be braking, cross the line by like 10 inches, and it says I ran the light which technically I did not

DO NOT BUY

THIS GAME IS THE WORST THE FIRST DAY I TRIED IT IT CRASHED AND DELETED ALL THE STUFF ON MY COMPUTER

Good Idea, Needs A Lot

WARNING: Length alert, please take/allow time to read this This game is a nice simulation game, one that is not crazy like other games that are racing or certain challenge games. Just sit back, relax, and get the passengers to their destination without doing any harm. It’s nice to take a break in a simulation game once in a while, so I say this game is an excellent game for those of you looking for a public transportation simulator. But, there are a few things that really need to be changed. Starting off, the red lights are not only twice as long as the green lights (which throws off your chance of an on-time bonus) but for some reason, as you approach a green light…it’s green, it’s green, and you are still full throttle (which is barely any acceleration compared to the other cars) until you are almost about to cross the intersection then, BOOM! A half-second yellow light and then a red light that you barrel through to lose 200 points. Also related to red lights, why do you get charged the 200 point penalty when you barely enter the intersection, not even the line of traffic? The penalty should be handed out as you enter the line of other traffic. Furthermore, there are plenty of people at the bus stops that you stop at, but there are no other people to be found. Not even at other bus stops, on the sidewalks, or in stores. So, why does a “dead” city need public transportation? Another thing, it is cosmetic, but why are the convention centers and hotels that you stop at all closed up with shutters and there are no other cars or buses to be found? Rather odd, I must say. Also, I do agree with the penalty “over-braking”, but why do your passengers scream loudly when you do over-brake (which is the reason that you can’t brake for the red light situation earlier in the review)? Screaming should only be for accidents. Another sound issue, the other traffic cars beep their horns at you when you are stopped at a red light, why? Additionally, the driving bonuses are small compared to the penalties. A red light penalty that you are issued when you didn’t even cross the line of other traffic but did cross the crosswalk (wait, I thought nobody walked in this city? There’s nobody else around...) costs you 200 points, but a perfect mile bonus is only 170 points. Although a small gesture, a proper turning signal bonus is a whopping 10 points. Lastly, this game gives you penalties you didn’t even deserve. The situation: you are coming out of a bus terminal and you will turn right onto a road. You put your right turning signal on to turn right, you check for traffic, nobody coming, then as you turn onto the road, “improper blinker usage -10 points” (don’t know if that is the exact caption). What did I do incorrectly? I didn’t swerve into the second or third lanes at all! But, returning to the good points about this game, the traffic patterns are nicely done, with the other cars also having turning signals and all cars use all roads (not to mention the other cars sadly parking illegally right in front of a bus stop, turning right from the second lane right across your path, and having instant brakes). The graphics are good, but not great. And also, a little imagination and dialogue that you say in your head doesn’t hurt, it just adds to the simulation experience. I know that if you have been reading other people’s reviews, a lot of this is redundant, so I must say it was not my intent to merely re-state other people’s reviews. They just have similar suggestions/thoughts about the game. A good simulation game, but once again, it needs help. After all, I spent my money on it and still play it, and have been for years now, so it’s good enough to keep playing it.

Not perfect, but darned good.

First, a warning: Even at the lowest graphic settings, this game barely runs on my old 1.83Ghz Core 2 Duo iMac with GMA950 graphics. That’s disappointing, because the Windows version of this game runs OK on that same iMac’s Boot Camp partition. Having said that, it runs flawlessly on my newer iMac. My only other complaint is that although you can use an analog gamepad to drive your bus, I can’t find any way of using the gamepad to control the turn signals. Since they key to winning at this game is to drive well, and obey all traffic laws, this means I have to take my hands off the gamepad and use the keyboard every time I want to signal a lane change. If the developer would just fix that one annoyance, this already great game would be even better.
