Donning his digital hardhat, jeans, and flannel shirt, we sent Adrian Haas into the weird world of simulations to live the life of a construction worker in Construction Simulator 2 US – Console Edition. A mouthful of a title that unfortunately shows more attention to detail and nuance than the game itself.

Construction Simulator 2 is so unrelentingly strict in its stringent adherence to following set tasks, there is absolutely no chance for imagination or creative outlet. Put simply, failure to follow the precise steps laid out for any particular task results in a breakdown that negates the contract or job, resulting in lost time, revenue, and any potential for enjoyment.

And yet, perversely, the game is unbelievably lax when judging a task as complete. Excavating soil within a marked boundary can be accomplished by simply scooping the ground in approximately the correct area until the game decides you've displaced sufficient soil, then Bing! Task complete.
